Hazrat Umar Farooq (Radiya-Llahu Anhu) was the best administrator and excellent rulers: Ulama Council 

Lahore, July 30, 2022 (PPI-OT):An intellectual sitting was arranged by Minhaj-ul-Quran Ulama Council to pay tributes to Sayyiduna Hazrat Umar Farooq (Radiya-Llahu Anhu), the second Caliph of Islam, on his martyrdom anniversary.

Addressing the gathering, Allama Imdadullah Qadri, president of Minhaj-ul-Quran Ulama Council, said that Hazrat Umar Farooq (Radiya-Llahu anhu) is a revered personality whose legendary courage, excellent character, integrity and the traditions of selfless and service-oriented caliphate are the bright chapter of Islamic history. He said that the Holy Prophet (PBUH) prayed for Hazrat Umar Farooq (Radiya-Llahu anhu) to join the fold of Islam.

He said that the second Caliph was the best administrator and ruler who introduced massive reforms and gave a vision of human welfare as bedrock of governance. He said that his period of caliphate saw the extension of the boundaries of the Islamic empire as conquests came aplenty. He said that his contributions and reforms are remembered even today after the passage of 1400 years as a model for the modern states to follow.

Allama Mir Asif Akbar, Secretary General of Minhaj-ul-Quran Ulama Council, said in his speech that the Holy Prophet (PBUH) prayed to Allah Almighty to strengthen Islam through whosoever was closer to Him, whether Hazrat Umar Farooq (Radiya-Llahu anhu) or Abu Jahal. He said that a day had hardly passed that Hazrat Umar Farooq (Radiya-Llahu anhu) presented himself in the company of the Holy Prophet (PBUH) and requested to be ushered in the fold of Islam.

Allama Mir Asif Akbar said that Hazrat Umar Farooq’s (Radiya-Llahu anhu) acceptance of Islam was a watershed moment in history of Islam. He said that soon after he became a believer, the Azan was given aloud in the courtyard of the Holy Kaaba followed by Salah. He said that Allah Almighty endowed the power of articulation and majesty on him, as the infidels used to fear him at the mention of his name. He said that Hazrat Umar Farooq (Radiya-Llahu anhu) was a great reformer, a ruler, administrator, and the commander of the military who has amazing conquests to his credit.

He sharpened the contours of the State of Madina and further improvised it. He said that if the Muslim rulers want to enjoy the respect and prestige, then they should follow Hazrat Umar Farooq (Radiya-Llahu anhu) in his footsteps. Allama Ghulam Asghar Siddiqui, Mufti Khalil Hanfi, Allama Usman Sialvi, Allama Latif Madni, Allama Muhammad Rafique Randhawa, Allama Akram Tayyab and others were present on the occasion.

PAT strongly rejects statement of Rana Sanaullah about ‘acquittal’ 

Lahore, July 30, 2022 (PPI-OT):PAT Secretary General Khurram Nawaz Gandapur has strongly rejected the claims made by Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah about the Model Town tragedy. Criticizing the Minister’s statement, he said that the Model Town tragedy was planned in the PM’s Office of that time. He said that Nawaz Sharif, Shahbaz Sharif and Rana Sanaullah were the mastermind of the plan, whereas it was translated into action by the Lahore police and local administration. He said that all these facts are duly mentioned in FIR No. 696 registered with Faisal Town police station, adding that the FIR remains pending as no action has been taken on it.

Khurram Nawaz Gandapur said that an effort was made to get the accused of Model Town tragedy acquitted during the illegal rule of Hamza Shahbaz, which was foiled due to the proactive legal response of the PAT legal team. He said that our lawyers have placed solid proofs about the involvement of Nawaz Sharif, Shahbaz Sharif and Rana Sanaullah before the anti-terrorism court but no headway has been made so far.

He said that Shahbaz Sharif as CM Punjab and Rana Sanaullah as Home Minister Punjab got the investigation conducted by the officers of their choice and this way they distorted and compromised important facts of the case. He made it clear that the then Punjab rulers made their blue-eyed officers conduct the probe not for the sake of justice but to get clean chit. This hand-picked team, he said, refused to record the statements of the injured and eye-witnesses and presented the one-sided challan to the court.

PAT Secretary General said that it has been our consistent demand for the past 8 years that an impartial JIT should investigate the Model Town tragedy. He said that a JIT was constituted at the order of the apex court, which was later on stopped from working by the order of Lahore High Court. He said that the stay order has remained in force for the last three years, adding that unless the report of the JIT comes out, Rana Sanaullah and his accomplices cannot claim acquittal in the case. He said that Mian Shahbaz Sharif and Rana Sanaullah want to shift the whole blame of killings on the police officers and officials, stating that the police played the role of an instrument to implement the plan.

Khurram Nawaz Gandapur said that Mushtaq Sukhera was brought from Balochistan to Lahore as IGP one day ahead of the tragedy. He said that both Shahbaz Sharif and Rana Sanaullah have failed to present any logical justification of the overnight transfer. He said that DC Lahore was also changed at a short notice and the police force of various police stations was gathered in the residential area of Model Town. He said that the plan was not just to remove barriers but to kill the leaders and workers of PAT.

PAT Secretary General further stated that the PMLN government wanted to scare Dr Tahir-ul-Qadri through the Model Town plan so that he could not come back to the country and pave the way for the end of their despotic rule. He said that it is our appeal to the honourable Chief Justices of Supreme Court and Lahore High Court to take up the stay order for an early decision on the stalled work of JIT so that the reality of the masterminds of Model Town tragedy could come to the fore.

REVIT: Upcoming Hands-On Workshop

Islamabad, July 29, 2022 (PPI-OT):The rise of BIM software has revolutionized the field of Architecture, Engineering and Construction Industry.
