Jamia Hafsa of Lal Masjid students rises again
Jamia Hafsa spirit rises again
Islamabad, July 10, 2008: Students of the demolished Jamia Hafsa of Lal Masjid
demanded on Wednesday that the government rebuild their seminary at its original
site.
The demand was made at a Shuhada-i-Lal Masjid
conference for women, organised in connection with the first anniversary of Lal
Masjid operation.
Umme Hassan, who was the principal of the seminary
before it was demolished, put forward three demands at the conference: release
Maulana Abdul Aziz, her husband and former Khateeb (preacher) of Lal Masjid,
resumption of classes in Jamia Faridia and reconstruction of Jamia
Hafsa.
Other speakers said they were peace-loving people and wanted to
contribute towards progress and prosperity of the country. They stressed that
girls should be allowed to continue their education at Jamia Hafsa.
BBC
reported that hundreds of burqa-clad women demonstrated outside the Lal Masjid
on the occasion to demand reconstruction of Jamia Hafsa. Until that was done,
they said they would continue to hold classes in the open at the side of the
seminary.
It quoted Umme Hassan as telling the rally within the mosque
compound that "our mujahedin laid down their lives for the enforcement of the
Islamic system in Pakistan. We are left behind to carry forward their
mission.
"We should prepare our children and men for jihad," she said and
the audience responded with chants such as "jihad is our way!".
According
to the BBC Umme Hassan said the present democratic system was the biggest hurdle
in the way of enforcing Islamic system in the country and believed that would be
possible "only under Khilafat". Dawn
