LAHORE : Religious leaders strongly condemned the attack of Zionist army at Al-Aqsa mosque on Jumatul Wida wounding over two hundred worshippers including women and children, terming it a blatant attack on Muslim religious honour, and demanding the Muslim states boycott Israel and chalk out a joint strategy to protect the first Qibla of Muslims.
They said the Muslim countries who had acknowledged the illegal and illegitimate state of Israel under US pressure should feel the burden of this situation which was brought about due to their cowardice and opting for personal, financial favours instead of responding to the call of Islam.

LAHORE: JUP Vice President Qari Zawwar Bahadur was acquitted by an anti-terrorism court Tuesday by dismissing the charges of backing the accused of blasphemy against Ahle Bait, inciting people for violence, taking out illegal rally and blocking a road.
The elderly cleric was booked in a case over six months ago when he was among the leaders of a rally against the arrest of a noted religious scholar Dr Ashraf Asif Jalali in a case of blasphemy of Ahle Bait pertaining to a historic issue already settled by Muslim scholars centuries ago.
Judge Ijaz Ahmad Buttar was informed by defence counsel that Dr Ashraf Asif Jalali was already released on bail by the Lahore High Court on the same grounds that three major schools of thought had already settled the issue centuries ago. The judge asked the state prosecutor about the grounds to prosecute Qari Zawwar Bahadur further in the case, and finding the grounds insufficient, he acquitted him from all the charges.
