Pakistani Politician Underlines Respecting Sanctity of Quran

TEHRAN (IQNA) –  Pakistan Muslim League(PML) President and former Prime Minister Ch Shujat Hussain said the sanctity of the Quran demands that this holiest book should not be brought into political matters.

In a statement issued in Lahore on Tuesday, he said the speaker of Pakistan’s National Assembly should ensure that sanctity of the Holy Quran in any reference or any manner should not be undermined.

He added that the way Holy Quran is being subjected to discussion in the National Assembly and the Quranic verses are being used for own purposes is not proper.

“I request that Holy Quran should not be brought in political matters from any side so that sanctity of this most sacred book is maintained. The Speaker National Assembly should not hesitate in taking the strictest measure in this regard,” the senior politician said.
