As Kalam said in Ignited minds and he studied in St Joseph's college Trichy a christian institution.Had roommates from different religions one hindu brahmin Sampath Kumar,The other christian Alexander and himself a muslim.
They all stood as examples of secularism and communal harmony and never
abused another religion.Secularist in true sense!
Everyone has a different culture and custom!
WE must respect that!
In an interview with a popular comedian He was asked what would you suggest for a superstitious belief of throwing a white pumpkin on road to
ward off evil eye for which he calmly replied "One can't insult religious faiths and customs or have a word on that.We must try to respect different faiths and please don't call it superstitious! It is one's belief which should not be insulted!" When the latter said Road accidents occur due to these he said maybe one can clean the mess after throwing the fruit on the road and putting them in the bin!
he knew the mahabharata and often stated his favourite charecter was Vidhura.
Though a muslim,he was a strict vegetarian!
He went to temples and churches and comes from a secular family background which focussed on simple living high thinking!
Once his great grandfather was watching a temple procession from a distance.The idol accidentally slipped from people who were carrying the idol (it's a custom in hinduism) and fell into a river! This man immediately jumped into the river with strong current and brought back the idol and he didn't even stop to think for a second!
After that incident Dr Kalam's family was given great respect at the temple
equal to pontiffs,kings and priests of high rank at that time.
