Terrorism is not jihad, it's fasaad, say Pak clerics | Hundreds of clerics in Pakistan's Bajaur agency have declared that the ongoing militancy in the country is ;not jihad.' Issuing
an edict at a gathering in Laghrai, at least 120 clerics said the ongoing militancy
is not jihad but fasaad [unlawful warfare], which was condemnable, the Daily Times
reports. Pointing out that Pakistan is an Islamic country and the army is defending
its frontiers, the clerics added that foreign and anti-state elements wanted to
destabilise Pakistan. They also said that the activities carried out in Bajaur
Agency were a conspiracy to malign Islam. |
