Imams slam politicising cartoons
 Prayer leaders in Islamabad's registered mosques urged the people not to allow politicians to exploit their sentiments over the publication of caricatures of the Holy Prophet (During their Friday sermons, imams from mosques around the capital expressed their reservations on the MMA's claim that their protests would continue till the ouster of President Musharraf. "Politicising the issue is wrong. They (the MMA leaders) should have said that their protests would continue until the publishers of the caricatures are punished," observed the imam of a mosque in sector G-9/3. He said that every Muslim was hurt by the publication of the caricatures, but it was not justified to use the people's religious sentiments to further a political agenda. Posted by: Fred 2006-02-27 |
