PESHAWAR: Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (Fazl) chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman Wednesday said that the West is pursuing an agenda of eradicating Islam, calling for institutions to change their line of thinking.

Addressing the party’s youth convention here, the JUI-F chief said that the establishment and the bureaucracy should know that the United States (US) is pursuing the agenda of eliminating Islam.

He went on to say that the influence of immoral civilizations must be halted and the Pakistani youth was not a product of a depraved society. He told the youth to be ready to take stern decisions.

“There is a reason behind our silence. The seminaries are ready to come under national ambit when the rulers come under Islamic ambit,” Fazl said.

Taking a jibe at the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) government, the JUI-F leader said that the provincial government gives Rs30,000 to singers, but have promised only Rs10,000 to the mosque clerics. “The clerics have rejected their money,” he said.

The JUI-F leader said that it was the US’ desire to minimise the role of religious seminaries after 9/11. He criticised Darul Uloom Jamia Haqqania for taking monetary grants from the KP government.

“It is commonly known that people give money to get tickets to contest elections but it’s interesting to see that the Darul Uloom Haqqania is getting both the ticket and the money,” he said and added, “They are now not eligible to request for donations from the people.”
