Kalam’s
Father Jainulabdeen was a religious person as well as punctual man. He used to
start his day with namaz. He used to go to the old mosque in his locality. He
wanted to enrich his son with religious knowledge. Very oftain he continued
religious discussion with the high priest or Rameswaram temple. He could turn
difficult religious Concepts into very simple Tamil. People believed him to be
a very powerful religious person. So, people of different religions would wait
for him outside the mosque to come in contact with him and also to get his
religious touch. Indeed he was a true religious man free from narrowness of
religion.
