The administration of Al-Mawrid Foundation has expressed concern over the attempted assassination of Islami scholar Syed Manzoorul Hassan and said that it was not still unclear if the incident was terrorism or a roadside robbery, Al-Mawrid would not retaliate and instead forgive the attackers if investigations revealed that it was indeed an act of terrorism. According to a press released issued by Al Mawrid Foundation on Sunday, the organisation has been researching Islam for the past several years and published several religious books. Al-Mawrid is recognised nationally and internationally. The administration said it had no enemies and would continue to research Islamic studies. Syed Manzoor ul Hassan was shot and injured by unidentified men on August 23 when he stepped out of his office in Model Town. He is currently critical in hospital, as the bullet that him has not been removed from his neck yet.
