Clerics: End U.S. Involvement In Pakistan, Enforce Islamic System
A conference of Pakistani clerics has demanded an end to U.S. involvement in Pakistan’s internal affairs and enforcement of shari’a in the country.
The Urdu-language newspaper Roznama Jang reported that the clerics demanded that Pakistan evolve its own independent foreign policy and end U.S. and Western involvement in Pakistan.
The conference was organized by the Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (F). According to the newspaper report, Jamiat leader Maulana Fazlur Rahman told the conference that that the struggle to make Pakistan stable and shari’a-compliant should continue.
Also according to the report, Maulana Muhammad Khan Shirani, the Emir of Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (F) in the Baluchistan province, said that the West and the Jews are conspiring against Muslims and Islam on a big scale, and are using different strategies to impose a Western system on Muslim nations.
Speaking on the occasion, Jamiat Secretary General Maulana Abdul Ghafur Haidari said that all rulers of a nation (Pakistan) created in the name of Islam have put Islamic teachings on the back burner and have adopted policies to please their Western masters.
