In 2016, [[Shia in India|Shias in Lucknow]] protested [[Saudi Arabia]]'s [[Execution of Nimr al-Nimr|execution of Sheikh Nimr al-Nimr]]. Farooqui compared it to [[Ajmal Kasab]]'s hanging in India. Shia Muslim cleric [[Kalbe Jawad]] accused Farooqui of labeling a rights activist as a terrorist. Farooqui denied this, stating that protesting against Saudi Arabia in India interferes with another country's security. Also, Farooqui remarked that "they (Saudi Arabia) hanged him (Nimr) as per the law of their land, but they (Shias) are protesting here. It would be the same if protests were organized in other countries against Ajmal Kasab's hanging."<ref name=:"TIE">{{Cite web |last= |first= |date=5 January 2016 |title=Lucknow's Sunnis ask why Shias protesting Saudi move |url=https://indianexpress.com/article/cities/lucknow/lucknows-sunnis-ask-why-shias-protesting-saudi-move/ |access-date=28 January 2016 |website=[[The Indian Express]] |language=en |archive-date=11 January 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160111095830/http://indianexpress.com/article/cities/lucknow/lucknows-sunnis-ask-why-shias-protesting-saudi-move/ |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=6 January 2016 |title=Execution in Saudi: In Lucknow, war of words between Shia, Sunni clerics escalate |url=https://indianexpress.com/article/cities/lucknow/execution-in-saudi-in-lucknow-war-of-words-between-shia-sunni-clerics-escalate/ |access-date=28 January 2024 |website=The Indian Express |language=en |archive-date=28 January 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240128032334/https://indianexpress.com/article/cities/lucknow/execution-in-saudi-in-lucknow-war-of-words-between-shia-sunni-clerics-escalate/ |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2016-01-06 |title=शिया धर्मगुरु की फांसी पर बँटे लखनऊ के मुसलमान |trans-title=Lucknow's Muslims divided over hanging of Shia religious leader |url=https://www.bbc.com/hindi/india/2016/01/160106_lucknow_shiya_sunni_ml |access-date=2024-04-24 |website=[[BBC News Hindi]] |language=hi |archive-date=2022-06-04 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220604185457/https://www.bbc.com/hindi/india/2016/01/160106_lucknow_shiya_sunni_ml |url-status=live }}</ref>
