"One bullet hit my car but I'm safe," said Rasheed, after the incident.
The firing took place when the AML President was returning from an interview at a TV channel in Islamabad.
"He is currently on his way to register an FIR at the Aabpara police station," reported Express News correspondent Qamarul Munawar.
A personal guard and a gunman was with Rasheed at the time of the firing.
The identity of the attackers could not be ascertained as the area is surrounded by trees and they easily fled, said Munawar.
Rasheed had won from the NA-55 constituency, Rawalpinidi 6 during the general elections by a sizable majority.

sheikh rasheed you are the true lion
may you live long Sheikh Rasheed, you are the only leader in Pakistan, the only man to speak about poor, you represent Pakistan.
Long live Sheikh Jee. His death would have been a great loss to Pakistan's Private TV channels.
Thank God Sgeikh Sahab you are safe. May God keep you sake and healthy for ever. Honestly, its fun to watch you on TV. We don't want to miss you. However, this incidence should be enough to prove that no one is sake in Pakistan and you too have contributed to some extent towards this chaos. Do you still think India is responsible for today's shooting at you? Or it was someone closer home who you abuse every other day openly during TV shows?
He is popularly known as "The Shahrukh Khan or Pakistan's TV talk shows" as Pakistan has no movie industry. It is fun to watch him in talk shows.
