The Muslim community of two distinct places, Allahabad in UP and Gaya in Bihar, have set examples of communal harmony by showing utmost respect for the sentiments for their Hindu brethren.

Similarly, in a Muslim-majority village of Gaya, the members of the community constructed a temple for the Hindu residents of the village who were forced to perform Yagna under the open sky as there was no temple in the area.
