Staff Report

ISLAMABAD: Estranged Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) leader and former Chairman of the Islamic Ideology Council (IIC) Maulana Muhammad Khan Sherani has announced to part ways with Maulana Fazlur Rehman and revive JUI-Pakistan.
Speaking to media in Islamabad, Maulana Sherani said that they would follow three steps as a guideline for their future course of action which included no action from their party against Quran and Sunnah, propagation of the Islamic teachings, and avoid forcing or pressurizing anyone to work with them.
He said that after consultation between their associates today, it emerged that Fazlur Rehman has formed a separate group within the party as JUI-F while on the other hand, they inherited JUI-Pakistan from their religious ancestors.
Maulana Sherani said that they could not support Fazlur Rehman in his lies and would ask the party leaders to refrain from disassociating with anyone and should work for strengthening JUI-Pakistan. “As per the constitution of the party, we are part of the JUI-Pakistan and will oppose ongoing policies which are based on lies,” he said.
