MMA piously deplores Jamia Hafsa clerics
Leaders of the Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal (MMA) have condemned the actions of students of Jamia Hafsa and Jamia Fareedia madrassas, saying that such things were not allowed in civil society. They said that girl students were leading these actions and Islam does not allow leadership by women.
Jamaatud Daawa spokesman Abdullah Muntazir said that Islam does not allow women to lead such campaigns.
Commenting on the recent actions of the madrassa students in Islamabad, MMA leader Liaqat Baloch said that no religious party endorsed the actions taken by the madrassa students. He said that no society in the world allowed citizens to take the law in their hands. MMA Senior Vice President Sajid Mir said the students must not take the law in their hands even though they had a pious objective. MMA Vice President Qari Gul Rehman said it was the government’s duty to implement Sharia. JUI-F Frontier chief Naseeb Shah and JUP Information Secretary Abdul Rehman also criticised the actions of the madrassa students and demanded the government take “proper” action. Jamaatud Daawa spokesman Abdullah Muntazir said that Islam does not allow women to lead such campaigns.
