Religious leaders launch tirade against Ahmedis
Lahore, Jun 2 (PTI) Religious hardliners have launched a fresh tirade against Pakistan's Ahmedi sect, just days after a terrorist attack on mosques of the religious minority left 95 people dead and over 100 injured.
Leaders of the Tahfuz-e-Namoos Risalat Mahaz demanded that the government should take "strict action" against Ahmedi community director Mirza Ghulam Ahmad for committing "blasphemy" by saying that with a stroke of a pen the community had been declared non-Muslims.
Addressing a press conference yesterday, TNRM leaders Allama Razai Mustafa, Allama Abdus Star Saeedi, Qazi Muzafar Iqbal, Qari Zawar Buhadar, Allama Gul Muhammad Aqiqi, Allama Khadim Hussain and Ashraf Jilali did not condemn Friday's attacks on the Ahmedi mosques.
Instead, they demanded that the Ahmedi leaders should be penalized for statements they had issued after the carnage.
Jilali claimed the feelings of Pakistani Muslims were hurt by such statements.
"Qaidianis (Ahmedis) are non-Muslims.

Thats just pathetic and an ignorant attitude. Have some shame... or will they continue to break all cardinal Islamic rules again and again. May Allah guide them to ACT righteously.
ReplyDeleteThose Muslim groups responsible for the attack have broken cardinal rules within Islam, such as the Quranic directives, “And create not disorder in the earth” (7:57) and “whosoever killed a person …it shall be as if he had killed all mankind” (5:33).
Islam condemns violence and the taking of innocent lives, and the Ahmadiyya Muslim community rejects any claims from those who do so that they are following Islamic principles.
It is a matter of great shame for any civil society where evil instigators inculcate hate against the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community by attacking their places of worship.
