Ulema Board on Monday jointly appealed to gunnies to surrender and stop subversive activities in the holy month of Ramazan.
In a joint declaration, Learned Elders of Islam and mashaikh said that Ramazan-ul-Mubarak is the month of peace and blessings and noted that launching armed struggle against innocent and unarmed people is a great sin as per Islamic sharia. They said that due to the behaviour of the Taliban thousands of people of North Wazoo have been compelled to leave their homes. They urged supporters of Taliban to persuade them to announce their disassociation from armed struggle, as Islam teaches peace and respect of humanity.
The declaration said Islamic laws can only be enforced in the country by implementing the teachings of the Holy Prophet (PTUI!). The declaration said the Taliban must first implement sharia on themselves and surrender before the law.
