Indian cricketer Mohammad Kaif has had a rough year on social media. Kaif's Facebook and Twitter posts have often been flooded with comments with many calling him out on being "un-Islamic" several times. The Islamic radical trolls have unearthed yet again, this time to criticise him for celebrating Christmas with his family. The 2002 NatWest Series Final hero took to Facebook and shared a photograph with his family. He wrote, "Merry Christmas ! May there be peace and love." Little did he know, his message for peace and love would put him at the centre of a controversy all over again. As soon as he put up the picture, he was ridiculed for celebrating the festival.

However, this isn't the first time Kaif has faced the heat from social media users. Back in January, Kaif was criticised for doing "Suryanamaskar". "Surya Namaskar is a complete workout fr the physical system, a comprehensive exercise form without any need equipment.#KaifKeFitnessFunde," Kaif posted on Twitter alongside four pictures which depict him performing the ancient Indian exercise.

His gesture did not go down well with a section of people who accused him of insulting his religion through his actions.

"In all 4pics, I had Allah in my heart. Cant understand what doing any exercise, Surya Namaskar or Gym has to do with religion. It benefits ALL," Kaif posted later.
