Peshawar: Religious scholars of all sects in Pakistan are united at one platform and will not allow any plot of the enemy in creating anarchy and sectarianism in the country to succeed. Badshahi Masjid Lahore Khateeb and Imam and Majlis UIema-e-Pakistan Chairman Maulana Syed Abdul Khabir Azad said this along with other distinguished and eminent religious scholars from all schools of thought during a press conference at Peshawar Press Club on Thursday.
The press conference titled “Message of Peace Conference” was organized by Majlis Ulema-e-Pakistan to build up religious harmony, unity, and advance tolerance in the country.
The Chairman Ruet-e- Hilal said the press conference would go a long way in strengthening brotherhood, love, tolerance, and unity. “We want to tell the anti-state elements that their nefarious agenda of anarchy in our country will fail and the issue of sectarianism will come to an end in Pakistan. All the conspiracies that are taking place will fail. “Today, religious scholars of all sects are united on one platform. We have thwarted the agenda of the anti-state elements in the past as well, and will continue to do so in the future,” he added.
He further added, “The Message of Pakistan has strengthened its national security and peace. The Ulema are united on one platform for the stability of Pakistan. There is a strong unity among the ranks of the Ulama-e-Kiram.” He said Pakistan’s armed forces and security agencies had made everlasting and exemplary sacrifices for strengthening stability of the country.
“The plans of enemies of Pakistan have failed. We pay our heartfelt tribute to our armed forces and the Ulema fully support them. It is the responsibility of all sections including the Ulema to strengthen a peaceful Pakistan.”
He said Prime Minister Imran Khan‘s dream of a “strong and peaceful Pakistan” had been a huge success. With the efforts and successful strategy of the Chief of Army Staff, Pakistan had become strong and stable, he added. He said the voice of “Message of Pakistan” had reached every home, street and corner of the state, eradicating sectarianism, religious hatred, violence and anarchy. “Some conspiratorial elements want to subvert this atmosphere of peace and we have an eye on the whole situation, such ugly faces can never succeed, their conspiracies will be thwarted by our national institutions,” he maintained.
