Chairman Sufism Pakistan and Sajjada-Nashen of Draga Hazrat Syed Jalal Din Sorkh Posh, Syed Nafees-ul-Hassan has said that extremism and terrorism should be eliminated through teachings of spiritual leaders.
Syed Nafees-ul-Hassan was talking to The Post in a Forum on Thursday. He said that Pakistan is passing through a critical juncture and it is need of hour to combat terrorism and extremism in the light of teachings of Hazrat Data Gunj Buksh, Hazrat Moeen Din Chishti, Hazrat Bakhtair Kaki, Hazrat Mian Mir, Baba Bullhai Shah, Waris Shah Hazrat Mian Mir, Shah Jamal, Mooj Dirya and Hazrat Shahbaz Qalandir.
Dilating on the history of Uch Sharif, he maintained that it was the land of old civilization after Harappa and Moinjo Daro.
According to international archaeologists' report it existed 5000 years ago. Due to it's historical importance, UNESCO included it in World Heritage in 2004. But it had become a place to reckon with after setting up Jammia Ferozia for spiritual education in the subcontinent.
A large number of religious and spiritual scholars obtained education from there.
Some elements of the society were earning bad name to Jihad by committing suicidal acts of terrorism. Islam abhors any type of activities which caused destruction and take life of innocent people, he added.
When asked about Mushaikhs and Sufis who did not seem to be united, he sharply reacted saying that the different sects of Muslim should show unity and harmony to eliminate the extremism and sectarianism.
He maintained that Auqaf department was busy just for earning money but not to facilitate the devotees during Urs ceremonies.
Replying to a question, he strongly condemned so called Peers and swindlers who were misleading the people.
