"As for those who sell the faith they owe to Allah and their own plighted word for a small price, they shall have no portion in the Hereafter." al-Imran 3:77
This says it all about those who lie, Tahirul Qadri is not only a habitual liar but he is actually fond of it, or if we just give him benefit of the doubt; he probably is the patient of memory loss. In one of his gatherings, he mentions about his dream discussing divine decisions taken for his long life. The video has surfaced on the Internet.
Sharif family has been known for their inclination towards religion and their close ties with Tahir ul Qadri during the past speak the same. While listening to one of his videos of Friday sermon, most probably the last Friday sermon at Ittefaq mosque, he spoke about the generosity, care and love that Sharif family, including Nawaz Sharif and Shahbaz Sharif shared with him. When he was sick, they took care of him like their own family member.
The father of Nawaz Sharif actually treated Tahirul Qadri like his own son, or probably more than that, this is what Mr Qadri has claimed in the sermon. However, he didn’t end this relationship on that Friday but only decided not to lead Jumma prayers there anymore. In his speech, which is pretty viral right now he mentioned multiple times that Sharif family never asked for any political support for any procession or any election campaign. Neither he asked Sharif family for any money nor they asked for any political help.
On the other hand, the video that shows Kamran Shahid interviewing Tahirul Qadri is actually a gruesome truth about the lies of Mr Qadri. He says, “Sharif family asked for political support, so I refused and parted ways.” He even brought the holy book into it and this is where the nation needs to understand that these leaders can even sell their religion for the sake of their personal gains. What is the logic that binds his followers together? Political affiliations and interests aside, why did he need to bring Islam into it and why did Mr Qadri try to encash it? Its high time that we stop following the leaders who are actually manipulating the truth and misleading us towards a horrible end.
After all the political chaos that I come across daily, I feel like I just need to stop believing in the system and hopefully, I will simply focus on correcting on my own self. Instead of blaming the system and falling prey to their nefarious designs, let us just work on our own selves for the greater good.
