Palestine for Palestinians, Kashmir for Kashmiris: Mufti Muneeb

Mufti-e-Azam Pakistan and head of Tanzeemat Ahle Sunnat Walj Jammat (ASJ) Mufti Muneeb-ur-Rehman, while addressing a rally on Sunday, strongly condemned Israel and India, calling them "war criminal states" and urging the Muslim Ummah to unite in rejecting their legitimacy and actions.

Speaking at the conclusion of the Million March - which began at Numaish Chowrangi and culminated at Tibet Centre - Mufti Muneeb declared that Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah never recognised Israel, branding it an "illegitimate entity," and said the Muslim world should follow his legacy. "The Prime Ministers of Israel and India are war criminals who must be boycotted and brought to justice," he said.

He reaffirmed that 250 million Pakistanis stand with their armed forces, warning that any Indian aggression will be met with a strong and unified response.

The march, held in solidarity with the people of Palestine, against Indian aggression, and in support of the Pakistan Armed Forces, was attended by prominent religious leaders including Pir Muzaffar Hussain Shah, Allama Rehan, Shadab Naqshbandi.

Participants arrived in caravans, waving Pakistani and Palestinian flags, chanting slogans against Israel and India, and expressing their unwavering support for Pakistan's military.

Mufti Muneeb urged Muslim countries to devise a unified policy on Palestine through the OIC and called for the temporary suspension of ties with international human rights, women's rights, and children's rights organisations for their inaction on Palestine.

He demanded that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu be tried for war crimes in accordance with the International Court of Justice ruling, and accused both Israel and India of state terrorism and genocide. "Palestine belongs to Palestinians, and Kashmir belongs to Kashmiris," he declared, calling their occupations illegal and inhumane.

Proposing urgent humanitarian action, he called for the dispatch of medical caravans equipped with doctors, paramedics, mobile operation theatres, and diagnostic facilities to Palestine, as well as emergency food aid shipments.

Mufti Muneeb also condemned India's water aggression, warmongering, and false flag operations in Pahalgam, while criticising the United Nations for its failure to act.

"The UN is paralysed by veto power and enslaved to American and Western interests," he said, suggesting the world needs a new, effective global institution.

He further alleged that India has committed acts of state terrorism even in countries like Canada, the US and the UK.
