The President made these remarks while addressing the Jammu and Kashmir National Coordination Council seminar organized by the Council of Islamic Ideology, Azad Jammu and Kashmir. The President was the chief guest at the event while the Chief Justice AJK Supreme Court Muhammad Ibrahim Zia, Chairman AJK Council of Islamic Ideology presided the event.
The President emphasizing the role of the religious leaders in promoting peace and tolerance in the society said that our leaders must set an example of respecting varied religious opinions and preach brotherhood and tolerance. He said Islam is a religion that promotes humanity and righteous virtues that we need to unconditionally imbibe in order to progress.
The President said that AJK like Pakistan is a product of an ideology based on the teachings of Islam, where the people will be free to practice their religion without prejudice and discrimination. This ideology, he said, defines our national outlook and the very structure of our society.
President Masood Khan said that our salvation lies in following the teachings of the Holy Qur’an and Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and added that Islam is a universal religion that promotes peace, love for humanity and unity.
The President asserted the Masjid is not just a place of worship but a complete institution for collective social reform. He said that our Ulema must use their influence to promote inter-sect and inter-faith harmony by shaping public opinion. He urged them to fight against the evils dividing our society on the sectarian lines and make conscious efforts to bring our society closer.
He said by promoting unity in our society, we can achieve economic prosperity and make Pakistan a sovereign and powerful nation. He added that then only Pakistan will be able to effectively take up the Kashmir issue and resolve this long pending issue in accordance to the United Nation Security Council Resolutions.
Speaking on the abhorrent human right situation in Indian Occupied Kashmir, the President said that our innocent brothers and sisters are being subjected to unimaginable torture. He said that the Kashmiris in IOK are being mercilessly killed, maimed, illegally incarcerated and their women folk dishonored with impunity. He said that Hurriyat Leaders are under constant surveillance and their political freedom like that of the people has been curtailed.
The President praised the efforts of the Council of Islamic Ideology both in Pakistan and AJK saying that they have acted as a rudder in ensuring we follow the ideology on which this nation is based.
A resolution was also unanimously passed by the participants to work in unison towards promoting religious and inter-sect harmony throughout the country. The resolution also strongly condemned the atrocities perpetrated by India in IOK and asked for the just and sustainable resolution to the conflict.
