LAHORE: Punjab Chief Minister (CM) Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif has said that the faith in the finality of prophethood is unshakeable and will remain intact because this belief is the basic part of the religion, and the one who does not have faith in the finality of the prophethood is expelled from Islam.
The chief minister expressed these views while talking to a delegation of Ulema here on Saturday. Minister of State for Religious Affairs Pir Aminul Hasnat Shah, Maulana Ghulam Muhammad Siyalvi, Pir Aijaz Hashmi, Maulana Dr Raghib Hussain Naeemi, Pir Syed Tahir Saeed Kazmi, Mufti Intekhab Ahmed, Pirzada Usman, Mufi Muhammad Ramzan Siyalvi, Mufti Muhammad Haseeb Qadri, Mufti Imran Hanfi, Maulana Abdul Mustafa Hazarvi, Maulana Muhammad Ali Naqshbandi and others were also a part of the delegation.
Talking to the delegation, the CM said that the Constitution has also endorsed the faith in the finality of the prophethood and the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) also holds an unshakeable faith in it. He said that swift action was taken when some changes in this regard were made in the oath, which was restored back to its original shape.
Punjab ministers Rana Sanaullah and Zaeem Qadri, Punjab chief secretary, Home department additional chief secretary, IGP and other officials were also present on the occasion.
