Shabnam, a young Muslim woman hailing from Mumbai, has started on an extraordinary journey from Mumbai to Ayodhya. Accompanied by her steadfast companions, Raman Raj Sharma and Vineet Pandey, Shabnam is determined to cover a staggering distance of 1,425 kilometers on foot.
Her decision to undertake a 1,425-kilometer journey from Mumbai to Ayodhya for Ram Mandir darshan was not born out of mere whimsy but was fueled by a profound sense of devotion and an unshakeable belief in the universality of faith.
The trio reached Sindhava in Madhya Pradesh, a significant milestone in their expedition. The warm reception in Sindhava became emblematic of the acceptance they encountered along the way, transcending regional and religious boundaries.
Shabnam says, "Lord Ram belongs to everyone, irrespective of their caste or religion,"
Along the journey, the trio encountered numerous acts of kindness from strangers. From a humble meal offered by a roadside vendor to the shelter provided by welcoming families, these gestures became unexpected but cherished milestones.
