Religious and social views

Sheikh Aboobacker has condemned Islamic extremism saying Militant groups such as the Islamic State (IS) are trying to defame a religion that advocates peace and tolerance.[4][5]

In November 2015, he commented on gender equality saying Gender equality is something which is never going to be a reality. It is against Islam, humanity and was intellectually wrong.[6][7][8] and said “The obstinacy that boys and girls should study sitting on the same bench is an indirect attack aimed at destroying Islam and its culture. Gender equality is not Islamic, wise or humane.”[9] “My speech referred to was to giving special support and care for women in a situation where they were kept apart from social sphere. This special care and support needed to be extended to women in public and professional life, and has been reiterated many a time by the judiciary. We live and abide by the Constitution of India which provides equal justice to all irrespective of caste, creed or sex.”[10] Over the years Sheikh Aboobacker has expressed views on women's liberties.[11]
