Pakistani Maulana Who Advocated 'Death For Blasphemy' Now On The Run For 'Blasphemous Remarks' Over Alleged Errors In Quran
Lahore: (By Mushtaq Gill) A popular Maulana in Pakistan, Tariq Masood, who preached "death for blasphemy," has now himself come under fire over blasphemy allegations and is on the run to protect himself from the angry mobs.
A video of him went viral where he can be seen saying, "Why are you following Nabi (Mohammad, Prophet of Islam) when he did not know how to read and write?"
"The one (Mohammad) who is presenting the Quran (holy book of Islam), did not even write a single word and called others to write for him, which led to grammatical mistakes," he added.
"No corrections were done because Mohammad did not know there were grammatical errors, which continue till today," the Maulana said highlighting grammatical errors in the Quran.
However, now he is advocating that anyone can commit mistakes but there are three ways of seeking forgiveness, which he has done and hence should be forgiven.
Interestingly, earlier he had said, "Even if someone has sought forgiveness, we can't say it is from the heart or just from the surface and hence, he should be punished as per the blasphemy law."
While being on the run, the Maulana is releasing video clips seeking forgiveness and appealing to everyone to understand his words in context.
