Prof: Muhammad Farooq says about Interfaith Harmony

Prof (Rtd) MOHAMMAD FAROOQ, (THE DEAN OF THE FAROOQI IDEAL PUBLIC INSTITUTIONS (schools and colleges), in WAH CANTT)

The fear of terrorism is spreading everywhere. No one is independent. The sacrifices which our ancestors gave to form Pakistan are ending in smoke as Pakistan has now just reduced to a battle field. Quaid-e-Azam gave the principles of UNITY, FAITH AND DISCIPLINE to which the Government of Pakistan turned a deaf ear.

The first thing that is to be done is that there should be no provincialism, racialism and communalism. So we should route out communalism, abolish ignorance and illiteracy. The atmosphere of justice should prevail all over the country. All citizens should abide by law and regulations. The gap between rich and poor should be abridged. National income should be distributed rationally among the sections of the society. The provision of food, housing and clothing would be given first priority. If unity is maintained in our country, it will progress by leaps and bounds. People should be educated on mass-scale to bring forth democracy for which each citizen has to pay his role.

The president should unite all the members of assemblies. It is the duty of Naib Nazim (Deputy Head of the Local District Government) to provide each and every need to his town or city. All such tendencies which fan the force of separation and disruption should be diminished and unity should be celebrated. There should be no discrimination among the citizens on the basis of cast, creed, language and colour. Hazrat Muhammad PBUH also said that an ARAB was not superior to non ARAB or a White to a Black. He PBUH believed that all were the sons of Adam.
