Comment : NAWAZ SHARIF is on collision course with Islamic sentiments of the country with destruction in sight
His U turn on Islam and his determination for NANAK university
Increasingly Nawaz Sharif for sake of continuation of his line for benefit of Maryam and others and for sake of western support is trying to show himself as a western NGO man . The interest of religious lot in PMLN is bound to decrease with passage of every month as a result of these secular statements as Muslim league is not supposed to be a secular party and muslim league shall not be allowed to become a secular party like PPP or PTI or ANP.
Nawaz is mistaken on this count , either PMLN will turn to secularism and as a reaction a new Muslim league will have to be formed to stick to initial ideals of Panislamism or PMLN will drop its secularism bandwagon and its tolerance for Woman Raj, Hindu Raj , Sikh raj etc etc .
In islamic empires it is true that regarding property sanctity of life and honour , all citizens irrespective of religion are equal , but Islamic state has its ideals of spreading Islam , so not all religions can be actively promoted by state , there is only one truth not multiple truths.
In Islamic state minorities are tolerated , they are not forcibly converted, when possible their personal and religious law is protected for them , they are eligible for most jobs and are protected by state but they cannot head a islamic state or its judiciary or its army. Any job or post which is required for controlling religious or moral direction of the state or impact on its finances or ideology or defence cannot be held by a non muslim . Guidance has to be sought from holy prophet , his teachings , Hazrat Umar , etc and not Nur Jehan or Jehangir or Bhutto or any such attached to worldly pursuits professionals .
News : PM Sharif speaks out strongly against religious persecution
Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif on Wednesday said the day is not far when Pakistan will be recognised as a "minorities-friendly country" and that his government is taking steps to improve the lives of under-represented religious groups. The premier said his government, through its actions, promotes the belief that 'to each his own faith', adding that humanity is what should bind the nation together.
He was speaking at a ceremony at the Katas Raj temples complex in Chakwal. He further said followers of all religions have equal rights in Pakistan, noting that they had worked hand-in-hand to defend the country and contribute to its peace and prosperity. The PM said he has advised his officials to spare no effort in hosting non-Muslim pilgrims and ensuring the protection and expansion of their places of worship. He also said he would lend his full support for the construction of the Baba Guru Nanak and Gandhara universities. The PM observed that Islam and all other religions preach peace, and those preaching otherwise were not doing a service to their religion, Radio Pakistan reported.
PM Sharif made frequent references to Islamic history to stress that it was part of the Islamic faith to treat minorities equally. He recalled that when, in the early days of Islam, after Muslims migrated to Madina to escape prosecution and came into power, they treated the "minorities living there with respect". He said Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) even declared those minorities "one nation" along with Muslims. He said the Holy Quran states that God is the God of everyone and not just the Muslims, adding that there should be no distinction on the basis of caste, colour or creed because "we are all one as human beings". PM Sharif reiterated that he was the prime minister of all Pakistanis and "not just Muslim Pakistanis".
PM inaugurates water plant The premier earlier inaugurated a water filtration plant at the Katas Raj temple. The filtration plant, set up at the temple's holy Amrat Jal pond, will provide clean drinking water to visiting Hindu pilgrims. Sharif also planted a sapling on the temple's premises. He visited different sections of the temple and was briefed about their historic significance. Minister for Religious Affairs Sardar Yusuf and ETPB Chairman Siddiqul Farooq accompanied the prime minister.
