The Islamabad administration has sealed Jamia Masjid Al-Rasheed in G-8 Markaz after a dispute between two groups over the appointment of Imam in the mosque.
Due to the dispute, the residents had been offering their prayers in an adjacent park for the last two days. According to the residents of the area, a dispute between two groups occurred on the appointment of Maulvi Zulfiqar Gilgiti in place of Mufti Abdul Saboor as Imam in Jamia Masjid in Sector G-8 Markaz and a clash was very likely when the federal capital administration interfered and ended the conflict. The conflict reemerged again on Friday, after which the city administration and police sealed the mosque. Police officials have been deployed around the mosque to avoid any untoward incident.
