Jamaat-i-Islami chief, Syed Munawar Hassan, has condemned the planned caricature contest on the internet as religious terrorism of the anti-Islam forces and has urged the Muslim rulers to exert their influence for scrapping the Facebook.
In a press statement here Tuesday, he said the caricatures were the biggest attack on the honour of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and the Muslim ummah should rise in protest against the shameful act. The families of JI leaders and women wing of the JI meanwhile, staged a big rally against the caricatures on Multan Road. Begum Qazi Husain Ahmed and Begum Sameeha Raheel Qazi led the rally.
The JI chief said that Islam is a religion that preached peace, tolerance and respect for all other religions but the Western forces and the Zionist media had portrayed Islam as religion of violence and terrorism under a plan. He pointed out that Muslims respected all the prophets of God and in fact, their faith was not complete and acceptable unless they affirmed faith in all of the prophets.
