Social media is ripe with several claims about prominent industrialists and personalities pledging huge sums of money for the fight against coronavirus.<\/p>\n<p>Now, a newspaper&#8217;s front page image is getting shared on social media. It includes a news clipping which says that Maulana Saad has donated Rs 1 crore to the PM relief fund. The clipping is dated March 30, 2020. It is being claimed when Saad was asked about the pledge he said Islam doesn&#8217;t allow showing off the donation. Maulana Saad, formerly known as Maulana Saad Kandhalvi, is the chief of Tablighi Jamaat Markaz. He has been in the news after a religious gathering organized at Delhi&#8217;s Nizamuddin was identified as a hotspot of coronavirus. An FIR has been lodged against Saad and five others for violating the lockdown. On April 6, the Crime Branch of Delhi had issued a second notice to Saad after it <a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatoday.in\/india\/story\/delhi-police-issues-second-notice-to-markaz-chief-maulana-saad-1663913-2020-04-06\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">reportedly<\/a> deemed his response to the first notice &#8220;unsatisfactory&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Importantly, the report is seen beside the news of Azim Premji foundation <a href=\"https:\/\/economictimes.indiatimes.com\/news\/company\/corporate-trends\/premji-foundation-wipro-commit-rs-1125-crore-to-tackle-covid-19-outbreak\/articleshow\/74927690.cms\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">committing<\/a> Rs 1,125 crore for tackling coronavirus.
