Farhat Naik, wife of well known Islamic speaker Dr Zakir Naik who recently conducted a talk on ‘Misconceptions of Islam’ in Male’, Â has been admitted in ADK Hospital after falling from a banana boat yesterday.
Spokesperson for the Islamic Ministry Sheikh Ahmadulla Jameel said that Mrs Naik was not injured but was unable to swim and so was admitted to ADK as a precaution.
”She was not injured,” Ahmadulla said, ”but we brought her Male’ because she might have been injured as she did not know how to swim, and she is a very special guest for Maldivians.”
”She will be discharged today very soon,” he added. ”Dr Zakir Naik and his family will depart today.”
Police Sub-Inspector Ahmed Shiyam said that police had also been informed of the case.
He confirmed the incident had taken place on a resort but declined to give further details upon a request by the Islamic Ministry.
A staff member working at Coco Palm Boduhithi Island resort meanwhile confirmed that the incident happened yesterday afternoon. He said that she suffered no injuries.
Dr Zakir Naik and his family arrived to the Maldives on May 25 and was due to leave on May 31. Naik delivered two speeches during his stay in the Maldives, which attracted over 10,000 people. His wife also spoke on Islam last week.

Wow! Look at them. Enjoying the earthly pleasures and fun while staying in a resort hotel where unmarried infidels live together and drink alcohol.
seriously. we thought zakir niake said Maldives has unislamic resorts and banks. so why on earth were the enjoying. ar nt they hypocrites?
Crazy comments;
What Allah forbid is clear.
I don't think it includes BANANA RIDING.
So you 'Islam haters' get a LIFE ! okay
You think just because Islam forbids GAY MARRIAGE,FORNICATION, DRINKING, GAMBLING, LYING, CREATING MISCHIEF IN THE LAND, STEALING, HIGHWAY ROBBERY, USURY islam forbids MAN from enjoyign nature.
NO! Zakir Naik, his wife and his children are most welcome in Maldives, they can have all the fun they want.
SO DONT BE JEALOUS !! Majority of Maldivians can't swim either, despite living on the edge of OCEAN. So don't even think of making this a laughing matter!
ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah
Ali & Ahmed Fazeel: I pity your lack of knowledge in Islam. You may call yourself a Muslim; but it is apparent that you are at fault as to which is haram and hahal. This is where misconceptions occur. This is why we need a comprehensive program to teach Islam in our schools.
was she wearing raincoats while banana riding.. but seriously, if such special treatments are being received, i would love to bi-heart few scriptures and start my TV..

God works in mysterious ways.
The banana boat incident is nothing but God's way of revealing the inner hypocrisies of the Naiks.
What kind of dhau'va were Dr Naik's family running around with in Cocoa Palm Resort, an upmarket tourist resort which is full of European and probably Japanese non-muslims?
What kind of Islamic lesson were Dr Naik and his wife teaching their 16 year old son and three daughters among half naked tourists sunbathing and drinking liquor?
Were they teaching how to endure worldly comforts?
I wonder how much money and resources were spent on them by the government and from individual Maldivians to provide such a holiday for these hypocrites.
No doubt, Maldives have some of the stupidest people in the world who believe a person's religiosity is all about how he/she dresses up and whether they pray 5 times a day and call for Jihad.
Oh, by the way, how much money would the Islamic Ministry require to squeeze out of the Maldivians to provide a resort treat to the forth coming visits by the child-bride advocate Dr Bilal Phillips and Abdullah Green?
@ hameed 'a comprehensive education program' in schools? now that rings bells.petty excuse to take over the education system by 'programs' of brainwashing to keep the lie hidden. How about teaching a 'comprehensive history of religious persecution and intolerance' program we can start with the persecution of buddhists by a tyrannical king, the atrocities of bodu thakurufaanu, King Hassan X, Christianity in Maldives, Maumoon's legacy
Why is this news!? Next headline we will probably see is "Dr. Naik burps"! Why is so much time and space being devoted in the Maldivian media to this family of traveling circus performers?
heheheheheh Holy smoke!
so tv is haram, alcohol haram, but banana boat is not?hehehehe
All you beardies just do it - you are all hypocrites. You say you are right and you spread the word of God. But, what you really do is womanise, abuse your children and get married to your cousins and make love to your nieces. Get out of our beautiful country and stop that nonsense about Islamic tourism - who are you misogynistic bastards to come to the Maldives and preach us about nothing besides Peace TV and Islamic schools and islamic tourism. Go back to the farmland
HAHAHAHAH! wait was it an islamic banana boat?? then it would be ok ofcourse!
Man, this guy should be classified as a business guru. Hes built a business empire out of religion.
This article would have been more complete if the author had reported how they had been attired. Full hijab or swimwear?
ramses: I would love a comprehensive history of religious persecution and intolerance, genocide, ethnic cleansing, plundering, colonization and mass slavery and weapons of mass destruction around the world during the past 2000 years.
At least we know now one thing that's not Haraam.
1. Banana Boat
2. ?
@ jokes
"i would love to bi-heart few scriptures and start my TV.."
Its not too late. Please give it a try. Then we will not have to subscribe to Peace TV.
I wish you all the best!

Some of the commenters here are soooo funny. I laughed so much that my tummy hurts.
Thank you Minivan News for publishing them.
Picture with Bikini girls on it would have been perfect for this news. hehehe
for sure those banana's will be in their pajamas,...
Some of the most hilarious comments i have seen in recent history. while these scholars on vacation there is nothing Haram, may be they can bend some rules, i donno. i'm sure they can see some boys/men with their swimming trunks, and girls with bikini's... i just wonder how are they going to handle that... Guys think about, it as a 5*resort, as long as someone else pays i think they can waive Haram and Halal, hehe. or is it misconceptions about islam still????
No problem with banana boat. But how do you explain them going and relaxing and mixing with people freely drinking alcohol and in bikini on beaches and pools, where they are also doing their banana boating.
If one wants to advocate a voice then one should follow through with action.
They could have chosen to stay in an inhabited island where free alcohol and immodest clothing is disallowed.
@Shaya and
@all those who have never seen a banana boat
DON'T BE NAIVE, if you had ever been on a banana, you would not talk this crap!
99.9 percent of banana rides are MEANT for a great fall! That's the fun part of a banana ride, GOT THAT?
It's the shock of falling from a banana which will make you laugh on your own later on?
Here is what happens. The banana is a really smooth thing and the speed launch to which it is tied, will try to go zig zag to try to make all those on the banana to slip off and fall, and almost all except the one at the front falls. It's great fun. Then you have to climb back on, and again it starts. The momentum of turning the banana by zig zag motion will make it almost impossible for you to hold on to the rubber handle, unless you were used to the whims of the movement.
And Mrs.Naik being a lady (may be 40+)not used to the oceans and these dare-devil things, I saluet her for her COURAGE to be able to even climb on to a banana! Most of our fashionable girls will shriek and make the world a hell once they make the mistake of climbing on to a banana!
As if these 'islam haters' know what a banana ride is!
The whole thing is too funny! My imagination is runniong riot. I see her on the banana boat, her burqaa laughing with the wind and her face pulled back with the force of the wind...and then, bang she goes flying into the water, her legs never before seen to the world exposed to reveal Billabong Bikini underwear, her gucci sun glasses doriwning in the indian ocean, while all the bikini clad european on Cocoa Palm beach looks at her with envy, for her exhileration is un mistakeable.
p.s. goes to show that Allah is with us and not so much with the Naik's
I call upon Members of Parilament or other political parties to question the Minister of Islamic Affairs on the amount of money spent on the Naiks, both from the Government budget and from the contributions of others.Complete breakdown in detail on the money spent on everything from food, boat rides bar charges,(not ALGUL, but other drinks),sould be made public,along with the values of all donations both in cash or in kind.
Laughing at the hypocrites is Islam hating?
Is Mrs Naik the one at the front in that picture?

That's all. There is nothing else on this list.

A: You are simply making some assumptions.
Hey, I am quite impressed with this guy Naik!
C'mon guys! We have to admit it. This Dr. Naik (a former medical practitioner) is a great businessman and an expert salesman. He's a superb "Performer" whose whole 'Act' is choreographed to the needs of his audience and delivered with expert finesse. In his Show, his young son also makes an appearance to chip in with a "lecture" on the most complex religious topics creating an almost "Messiah-sort-of" hypnotic effect on the gullible masses. The audience is always gripped by awe at the sight of these prophetic appearances. Fantastic! Few people can put up a show like this in South Asia. I bet even Munko must have been impressed!
Usually this guy charges around USD 75000/- for a single appearance. Talk shows are highly profitable but his fees are impressive even if compared to Oprah!
The one week holiday in a luxury resort was part of the deal that he was promised and one of the main reasons for his visit to the Maldives. He had heard so much about the Maldives he had wanted to come here with his wife for a long time. But damn! these resorts are so expensive!
Apart from their little time spent on lectures on a few evenings Dr. Naik and family spent most their time at Coco Palm Bodu Hithi enjoying all these worldly pleasures with much delight. They had a great time consuming and enjoying many of the very things they condemn as haram in public!
Apparently, Mr. Naik also visited the Spa and was pampered with the resort's popular "four hands Massage". I am not sure if it was a halal massage or an Islamic massage! I also heard that he spent a lot of his time near the pool side watching the bikini clad hotties while sipping fruit juice in the bar.
We need to find out all the juicy details of their carnal pleasures in Paradise. Only then we will really know what a hypocrite he really is!
Mmm, the vibrations caused by the rapid impacts of the banana boat on the...southern regions of the human body is ...
Yes, I hope the Nikes liked that warning shot.
Hilarious! This shows we dont need separate Islamic Tourism here in the country. Even the Naiks can mingle with the half naked tourists.
I wonder though, how the sexual desires of the Male Naiks were?
Scare the shit out of people during Ramazan and get all the money you can and this is where all that Zakat money goes?
it must have been a nice sight her entangled in her veil, with her long sleeve dress when she fall. Or was she wearing a bikini uh may be a swim suit for the ride? the hypocrites who came to teach Islam and tell us how we should run our tourism industry! disgusting lot!
She must have become a parachute and thrown in the air.. heheheheh
your comments are proof enough that most maldivians have a nazim inside of them plus you maldivians can be totally vile and talk rubbish to prove that you are arrogant and ignorant goodfor nothing excuses of humanbeings..why else would you poke fun at someone who doesnt even know that u exist?u filthy fools..come out in the open like nazim and express urself so that we will know how many of you are there in disguise hiding behind an islamic name when you disgusting creatures dont even know the meaning of islam!
Unbelievable some 30 comments and not a single one on a verse... maybe there is nothing that can even remotely be linked to a banana boat!
badhuru,dont be under the false impression that this country is beautiful..haha what a joke,dr.naik is from a far better country than ours,at least they have more than 3lac muslims who follow their faith sincerely without foulmouthing someone who is out to spread a message..why would he want to set foot on this sodom?not even christians and jews foul mouth him like u sick maldivians...it is a pity that the islamic ministry brought him to this sad,excuse of a sinking little hellhole!
why dont u go out and foul mouth christian missionaries and israeli killers? why the hell are u sick litle idiots criticising Dr.Naik?is he getting his sustenance from this so called little sick,poor drug eaten so called paradise on earth?????sickos..this is not a beautiful country its a scik place filled with sick people like u foul mouthed neurotics!
msrashyd:
When you say come out in the open you chant death to those. If there was freedom of belief there will be thousands...
thats what you are scared of. Losing the religious strings.. Men and Women are created free. Who are you to oppress them..
Mrs. Naik told the Doctor (who attended to her in ADK) that she always had this fantasy about bananas and just couldn't resist the Banana Boat ride. She said she had the greatest ride of her life and doesn't regret it at all. She claims she had one hell of a ride!
Meanwhile, we are now hearing that Mr. Naik spent much of his time feasting his eyes on the sexy bikini clad young things lying by the pool side of this glamorous resort. I guess no harm in this at all.
After all, a little bit of "Lolu ziney" is good for the soul and certainly not haram for the Preachers.
I think we should take all the Mullahs in our country to our resorts and spoil them. Let us give them a chance to satisfy their unfulfilled desires. After all 90% of their lectures is about women and sex.
msrashyd,
You dare to foul mouth and insult Maldivians and this country by portraying yourself as a defender of Islam! Shame on you!
In case it has not gone into your thick head, this country is a 100% muslim country and had been a muslim country for the last several centuries. We are proud of being muslims and proud of our culture and heritage.
We are proud of our peaceful society and our moderate, progressive Islamic beliefs. Ad we hate the way your Saudi and Paksitani educated Wahabbis have invaded our society and we condemn the way you try to divide the social unity of this country by promoting your version of fundamentalist Islam.
We will never allow the Mullahs to drag this beloved country to the Middle Ages or allow you to create an Afghansitan or Wazirstan here. Do you get it?
There are several other Muslim countries in this world other than Saudia Arabia and Pakistan. Look at Malaysia and Indonesia. They don't claim that every woman must wear a black head to toe face covered Burgaa to be seen a devout Muslim. They don't condone child marriages nor do they promote such primitive practices under the guise of Islam. This is what we are objecting to. Do you get it?
We are poking fun at Dr. Zakir because he is a phony. A phony who is "selling" Islam by promoting his TALK SHOW and his PEACE TV channel for personal profit.
We have seen Islamic scholars before. And we see them elsewhere in the world. Religious leaders who are highly respected and behaving in the way such people normally do. But sadly, Dr. Naik and such televangalists are not promoting religion. They are out for profit. Their game is "SHOW BUSINESS" and nothing else.
wht religion are you so afraid of...? come out and proclaim! why are you all hiding?and on what basis are you allhypocrites hiding?come out all you munafigs,why so afraid if you die to be free atheists or christians or whatever face it instead of hiding in fear..there is freedom of expression ,christian countries embrace such cowards hiding behind the nameof islam,look at salman rushdie,so be like him u who hate islam..face it,dont hide...we dont need u hypocrites hiding among us as muslims..follow in your chosen lives..by the way what is islam doing to you,just sit quitely and if u hate islam and its ways keep quite..if you hate christianity do u scream and abuse the pope?hehe!do those christians who dont follow it keep abusing those who practice their faith?then who the hell are you screaming at islam and its followers?shut the trap and keep to yourself your hypoctical ways instead of crying no freedom no freedom!bullshit.
Now, now, boys! There is no need for you guys to get so worked up with each other.
You see the problem is that nearly all Maldivian girls know how to hold on to a banana.
And this is why the Maldivian Mullahs are so insecure about themselves.
If not for these Mullah's Mrs Naik would not have create this unpleasant scene.
Why didn't they get one of their jariyas to teach Mrs Naik how to ride the banana in the boat.
And where was Mr Naik when all this happened.
I bet he was busy watching the Russian girls ride the banana.
Such inconsiderateness!
Now we know, all resorts are halaal if you get the chance to enjoy.
Looks like Dr Naik has no problem hanging around with half naked foreginers in a booze-fueled resort, while his wife bounces up and down on a large banana
Is it allowed in Islam for women to ride on banana boats 🙂 OOPS!
haha great comments guys. i bet we can pool together a significant sum to pay for even just one pic of her fallin off that banana boat. what a sight that would be. guess mrs. nike likes bananas 😉 jst do it mrs. nike
Maybe resorts should offer discounts on Banana rides to attract more Muslim tourists.
maldives is not a 100%muslim country..it is a country full of phonies pretending to be muslims who are are moderate ...who are slaves of the western culture who think that following the religion faithfully is called fundamentalism..all u want is to be lazy and idle...living in this country of garudhiya baiy..little foolish ignorant barbarians who cant even ask an intelligent question about religion...live in this garudhiya drug nation aping the westerners,lazy lumps
u r jealous of Dr.Naik because u all dont wanto believe something good even if its starin you in the face
why dont go and foul mouth the maldivian asses who are drug addicts killing innocent people on the roads instead of talking about Naiks wife..abuse them and poke fun at them,u so called moderate peace loving islamic countrymen..yawn
Islam is a relegion that teaches hate:
Mohammad said;
The best of the actions is to love for the sake of Allah and to hate for the sake of Allah.
[Abu Dawud 40:4582]
More hate in the Quran and Hadith
Quran says:
Indeed there has been an excellent example for you (muslims) in Ibrahim and those with him, when they said to their people: "Verily we are free from you.. and whatever you worship besides Allah: we rejected you, and there has started between us and you, hostility and hatred forever until you believe in Allah alone
[Qur'an 60:4]
More hate in the Quran and Hadith, and explanation of verses as wikiislam

Mrs. Naik falling from a bana boat has got a lot of attention.
Some accused they are using the money of our Zakat for their enjoyment.
I wonder whether that is the only event where all our Zakat money might have been spent on (if it would have been spent on).
And some of you have described how she fell with such enthusiasm as if their life was so dull that Mrs.Naik's accident was the only thing that lightened it up.
Pss Pss. i pitty more than half of the people here for their childishness.
anyway, i had a good laugh!
some are really stupid and acting smart!
LOL
its really funny
