BATKHELA: The spokesman for Tanzim Nifaz-i-Shariat-i-Muhmmadi has warned to declare legislators as non-Muslims and Pakistan as ‘Darul Harb’ if they opposed Nizam-i-Adl Regulation in the parliament.

Talking to journalists at a protest camp in Bilal Mosque, TNSM headquarters in Amandara, Amir Izzat termed the passage of Nizam-i-Adl Regulation from the parliament as delaying tactics. He threatened to declare the legislators as non-Muslims and Pakistan as Darul Harb if they didn’t approve the regulation.

‘Have the laws already enforced in tribal areas and Malakand region been passed by the National Assembly,’ he asked, and added that all those laws had been proposed by the governor and promulgated by the president though ordinances.

‘In Islam even a prophet could not make laws of his own. The prophets were the messengers and they only conveyed Allah’s orders and directives to human beings,’ he added.

Commenting on the prime minister’s proposal of presenting Nizam-i-Adl Regulation before the National Assembly, he said the move was a conspiracy to delay implementation of Sharia and deceive the people of Malakand.

To a question, he said that enforcement of Sharia in Malakand was in accordance with Sections 4/5 of Article 247 of the Constitution. ‘We are striving for hundred per cent enforcement of Sharia,’ he said, adding even 99 per cent implementation was not acceptable as they would be answerable to Allah Almighty.

The TNSM spokesman said if rulers were independent in policymaking they would take decisions in best interests of people. ‘Our rulers are toeing policies of US and its allies. But the nation is not slave of America,’ he added.

He said that peaceful drive of TNSM for enforcement of Sharia and restoration of peace in Malakand would continue for the time being. ‘We would devise future line of action after consultation with scholars and other religious figure,’ he added.

He said if Interior Adviser Rehman Malik could not ensure hundred per cent peace in the federal capital how could he ask TNSM to restore complete peace in Swat.
