KARACHI: The terrorist elements that are carrying out attacks on defence installations, killing Pakistani soldiers and instigating sectarian violence are enemies of Pakistan, said Muttahida Qaumi Movement’s (MQM) chief Altaf Hussain on Sunday.

During his telephonic conversation with  Chairman of Pakistan Ulema Council Allama Tahir Ashrafi, Hussain said that the people of Pakistan should unite against such elements.

The MQM chief said that on one hand, conspiracies were being hatched against the Muslim world at an international level while on the other hand, Pakistan is being attacked from the inside.

He further added that the acts committed against the minorities are in fact destroying Pakistan.

Informing Allama Ashrafi about the establishment of Muttahida Bainul Muslimeen Forum, Hussain said his party is trying to promote sectarian and religious harmony.

Agreeing with the views of the MQM chief, Allama Ashrafi said that the Muslim world needs to get united.

Allama Ashrafi told Hussain that he supports him for his efforts in favour of Pakistan and Muslims.

“We want a system in Pakistan where the followers of all faiths, sects and schools of thought can live in peace and tranquillity by respecting each other,” he added.

@Awans: @p r sharma:

Awan's directions to Sharma to "go and study Islam first" is no more than a snubbing remarks. I would prefer Awan to please list ten salient islamic practices that are followed in our country, and ten others that are contrary to it. Then please judge for yourself if we are worth of being called ISLAMIC REPUBLIC.

Unless we are fair to ourselves in our thoughts and deeds, we cannot improve our destiny..

Very perceptive, so that's the kind of brains it takes to be leader of a political party.
