Instead of true Muhammadi Islam, American Islam implemented in Pakistan: Shiite Scholar

/in /by

The central President of Imamia Students Organization Pakistan Ali Mehdi while talking about the current situation of the country in the central office of the party said “Pakistan was created in the name of Islam and Islamic ideology is the very soul of the country without which the whole purpose of creating Pakistan will end”.

He further said “Islam is not only the name of worship, customs and spiritual beliefs rather it is a complete way of life that creates an order and discipline in every Muslim’s life and balance in his actions. That is why the founder of Pakistan clearly said that Pakistan was not demanded just to achieve a piece of land but to achieve a place where Islamic principles could be practiced”.

Ali Mehdi while regarding the rulers’ anti-Islam policies as the cause of Pakistan’s problems said that rulers and anti-Islam forces have defamed the true Islam.

“Golden principles of Islam are workable for all Islamic governments and ‘Meesaq e Madina’ is the example in which all guiding principles of an Islamic government are present. Non-Muslims have been following the true values of Islam and here the country, Pakistan, which was achieved in the name of Islam, the American version of Islam has been implemented and the whole nation has been facing the consequences of such policies. The takfiri ideology and its followers involved in anti-Islam conspiracies could not be allowed to decide the fate of the country. Pakistan was achieved in the name of Islam and will develop by following this very ideology”, Ali Mehdi further said.

“The solution of Pakistan’s problems does not lie in making the country Liberal or Secular rather in following the golden principles of true Islam because it has been our deviation from Islam that became the basic reason for all our issues and problems”, he added.
