In a sermon on Friday Hafiz Muhammad Saeed, the Jamat-ud-Dawa chief slammed the government for allegdly planning an operation against Jamia Hafsa and demanded the implementation of shariah.He said there was a perception gap between the rulers and the masses. He said that most of the rulers were nuisance for the Muslims. He urged them to seek guidance from the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
He said that it was saddening that the administration of Jamia Hafsa was being threatening and ridiculed for setting up a shariah court in Lal Masjid.
He said the enemies of Islam wanted those in power who promoted an agenda incompatible and inconsistent with the tenets of Islam. He said that there was no dearth of hypocrites to distort Islam, but only a few of people were ready to sacrifice their interests for Islam. He urged Muslim scholars to realise and fulfil their obligation of awakening and educating the ummah about the challenges faced by Islam and Muslims.
