LAHORE: JI ameer Senator Sirajul Haq has said the universal system of life revealed in the Holy Quran alone could guarantee world peace.

He was addressing the participants of an international Qirat conference held at Mansoora participated by noted Qaris from different Muslim countries including the renowned Egyptian Qaris Qari Muhammad Nasar Tarooti, Qari Muhammad Hasan al-Khiat and Qari Sameh Sharqvi besides four Pakistani Qaris participated in the Qirat competition.

Sirajul Haq demanded the rulers to fear Allah instead of the colonial powers. If the rulers ensured the supremacy of the Constitution which pronounced Allah as supreme law Giver, the country would come out of the present crisis and march on the road to progress, prosperity and stability, he added. He said history bore witness that the nations who faithfully stuck to the Quranic guidelines always rose to prominence. On the other hand, the nations which drifted away from the divine teachings, plunged into degradation and disappeared from the world scene.

The JI chief said the noble Quran was a weapon with the Muslim world which was far more powerful than tanks and guns as it could win over the hearts of the human beings. He added that problems of mankind would be resolved only by returning to this holy book. He said the idols of secularism, socialism and capitalism all had trounced and the system given by the Creator of the universe provided guidance to humanity in every walk of life and at every step.

Sirajul Haq said the Constitution demanded that the sovereignty of Allah Almighty be accepted and the Islamic teachings in social, economic and political spheres be adhered to. It was unfortunate, he said, that the rulers were freely and continuously violating the divine teachings as also the Constitution. Monarchies had been established in the name of democracy in which the common man was being exploited and national resources were being swallowed. He urged the masses to support the JI for an Islamic revolution which guaranteed solution to their problems as also the progress of the country.
