Bangladeshi Youths Urged to Rebuild Country Based on Quranic Teachings
"I salute you, the youths as Allah has freed us because of your fighting at the risk of your lives. The work is not yet over. We have rebuilt the country with the spirit of July 2024 and in accordance with the instructions given in the Holy Quran. Now, you wake up again for eternal freedom. You will get me along with you in the frontline as an elderly one," Shafiqur Rahman said on Saturday while addressing a public rally at Laksmipur's Adarsha Samad Govt High School.
Laksmipur District Jamaat organized the rally while its leader Ruhul Amin Bhuiyan presided and district Secretary Faruk Hossain Nurunnabi moderated.
Demanding immediate release of Jamaat leader ATM Azharul Islam, accused of a case of International Crimes Tribunal, Shafiqur Rahman said, "From 2009 to August 5, 2024, the party whose top leaders were killed the most is Jamaat-e-Islami. Eleven leaders were killed one by one. Allah has kept one person alive. He is our brother ATM Azharul Islam."
He said, "Our children gave their lives with a big dream. They said, ‘There is a storm raging inside my chest, shoot me if you feel like.’ What a storm! That storm was against the injustice, corruption and misrule of society. In no era do the youth support corruption and misrule. Rather, they roar against it. Freedom came in exchange for so much sacrifice by the youth.
