ISLAMABAD: The members of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) on Thursday submitted a resolution in the National Assembly in which they accused opposition members of offering Maghrib prayer on floor of House on Wednesday without knowing direction of Qibla.

The PTI members Ali Khan Jadoon and Muhammad Ibrahim Khan in their resolution said the way the opposition members led by the JUI-F parliamentarian offered prayer was against directives of Almighty Allah and Sunnah of the Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him).

The resolution says the opposition members were pointed out that they are not offering prayers in right direction of Qibla, but they ignored the advice. The House was not proper place to offer prayer in that situation when a mosque in the parliament House is meant for the purpose.
