The song Raghupathi Raghavarajaram was taught to me in school when I was about seven years,about 63 Years ago.
I was taught that this song was composed by Mahatma Gandhi and I was taught that it speaks about the identity of All Gods.
That Allah is another form of Iswar. So at that age , I was led to believe that both are same.
That the two religions are different ,I came to know later.
I am surprised at the lengths people would go to appease a section of the Community at the cost of another by tampering with a religious song.
‘The original lyrics of Raghupati Raghava Rajaaram are attributed to Sri Lakshamanacharya ; This Ram Dhun was later edited and popularised by Sri M.K.Gandhi; This was widely attributed to his attempts to bring about reconciliation ‘

Raghupathi Raghava Lyrics
I am surprised at the lengths people would go to appease a section of the community at the cost of another by tampering with a religious song.
The original lyrics of Raghupati Raghava Rajaaram are attributed to Sri Lakshmanacharya. This Ram Dhun was later edited and popularized by Sri M.K. Gandhi. This was widely attributed to his attempts to bring about reconciliation.
