Al-Kutub al-Sittah

Peaceful Future of Afghanistan Conference
On 30 November 2011, Qadri was the keynote speaker at the 3-day "Peaceful Future of Afghanistan" conference in
Istanbul, Turkey which was organised by the Center for World Religions, Diplomacy and Conflict Resolution of
George Mason University together with Marmara University and was attended by more than 120 Afghani leaders.
Qadri clarified about jihad and why suicide bombings is not Islamic. He provided suggestions on how to make a
peaceful future in Afghanistan by dialogue and co-operation. He pointed out that Afghans need to unite against the
radicals and Taliban who are in fact responsible for the NATO occupation in the first place.

2012 Tour of India
Millions listen to Tahir-ul-Qadri in Hyderabad, India, March 2012
On 22 February 2012, Qadri arrived in
Delhi for a 4-week tour of India.
[57]
Due to threat from the Taliban he was
treated as a state guest
[58] 
and was
provided Z plus security throughout his
tour by the Government of India.
[59]
Qadri went to India with a message of
peace and said 'Terrorism has no place
in Islam' while addressing the fatwa
book launch in Delhi.
[60] 
People
gathered to listen to Qadri along with
government officials in Gujarat.
[61] 
In
Hyderabad he attracted a large
gathering of people at the Quli Qutub
Shah stadium and spoke on the Islamic
concept of wasilah.
[62] 
Qadri addressed
a huge crowd at Palace Grounds of the
historic Bangalore where he cleared misconceptions about Islam and said 'A true Muslim is one who protects
mankind, not just Muslims'.
[63] 
Qadri also urged the Pakistani and Indian governments to reduce their defence
expenditures and instead spend money on the welfare of poor people.
[64] 
He went to Ajmer under tight security and
his programme was not disclosed until he had arrived in the city. He was one of the only scholars to hold a gathering
in historic Ajmer.
[65] 
In Mumbai the state government had arranged adequate security for Qadri's programme due to
threats from extremists.
[66]
Views
Extremism & Terrorism
Qadri argues that terrorists have left the true, classical teachings of Islam and that their rebellious spirit of violence
and religious extremism is a continuity of the Khawarij.
[67] 
Qadri was one of the religious leaders in Pakistan to
condemn the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001. He has denounced and severely condemned Osama bin
Ladin.
[68]
Qadri describes terrorism as an "ideological infection"
[69] 
and believes that, through his anti-terrorism summer
camps, "we are fighting on the ideological, philosophical, theological and academic fronts. We are trying to educate
young people."
[70]
Reuters featured Qadri in August 2009 as a leading Sufi scholar who is working to bring the western youth away
from extremism towards moderate Islam and to combat extreme tendencies.
[71]

Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri
90
After the December 2009 Rawalpindi attack he was quoted as saying: "Suicide attacks are not allowed in Islam,
these actions are un-Islamic, The slaughter of human beings in any religion or country, and terrorism in all its
manifestations, are totally in contradiction with the teachings of Islam."
[72] 
The same view is also held by the
majority of mainstream (non-Sufi) Muslims
[73] 
based on the teachings of the Qur'an 5:32.
Division of the World
Qadri refutes the division of the world into two categories Dar al-Islam (the abode of Islam) and Dar al-harb (the
abode of war) and that the west is the latter;
[74] 
Qadri instead divides the world into five categories.
[75] 
Qadri argues
that the word "Dar al-Islam" actually implies "the abode of Peace" rather than the abode of Islam and that all
countries under the United Nations (UN), whether Muslim or non-Muslim actually come under Dar al-Ahad (house
of treaty) which Qadri says is the same as Dar al-Islam.
[76]
In his 2010 anti-terrorism summer camp in Britain, Qadri further commented on the issue saying,
“
All these Western countries - Britain, Europe, North America, wherever you are living - since you are enjoying all rights, all freedoms
according to the constitution as other non-Muslim communities are enjoying, there is no difference. And I would have no hesitation in saying
you are enjoying the rights and freedoms much better than in many other Muslim and Arab countries.[77]
”
Cartoon Controversy
He expressed concern when cartoons depicting the Prophet Muhammad were published in newspapers around
Europe and sent out a memorandum called 'A call to prevent a clash of civilizations'.
[78][79][80]
Fatwa on Terrorism
On 2 March 2010, Qadri issued a 600-page Fatwa on Terrorism, which is an "absolute" scholarly refutation of all
terrorism without "any excuses or pretexts." He said that "Terrorism is terrorism, violence is violence and it has no
place in Islamic teaching and no justification can be provided for it, or any kind of excuses or ifs or buts." Qadri said
his fatwa, which declares terrorists and suicide bombers to be unbelievers, goes further than any previous
denunciation.
[81]
The US Congress funded think-tank United States Institute of Peace hosted Qadri in November 2010 to speak about
his struggle against radicalism in Islam in light of his Fatwa on Terrorism.
[44]
The Fatwa on Terrorism has been officially endorsed by Al-Azhar University in Cairo, Egypt.
[82][83]
Qadri at a news conference in London explaining the Fatwa on Terrorism.
Qadri states in his Fatwa on Terrorism:

Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri
91
“
The importance Islam lays on the sanctity and dignity of human life can be gauged from the fact that Islam does not allow indiscriminate
killing even when Muslim armies are engaged in war against enemy troops. The killing of children, women, the old, infirm, religious leaders
and traders is strictly prohibited. Nor can those who surrender their arms, confine themselves to their homes and seek shelter of anyone be
killed. The public cannot be massacred. Likewise, places of worship, buildings, crops and even trees cannot be destroyed. On the one hand,
there is a clear set of Islamic laws based on extreme discretion, and on the other, there are people who invoke the name of Islam to justify the
indiscriminate killing of people, children, and women everywhere, without any distinction of religion or identity. It is a pity that such barbaric
people still refer to their activities as Jihad. There can be no bigger discrepancy than this to be seen on earth. It can in no way be permissible to
keep foreign delegates under unlawful custody and murder them and other peaceful non-Muslim citizens in retaliation for the interference,
unjust activities and aggressive advances of their countries. The one who does has no relation to Islam and the Holy Prophet (blessings and
peace be upon him).
”
[84]
—Tahir-ul-Qadri, Fatwa on Terrorism
Burning of Qur'an
On 9 September 2010, Qadri wrote a letter to the U.S. President Barack Obama in response to the controversial 'Burn
a Quran Day' urging him to stop this incident from happening.
[85] 
Qadri wrote in an article published on the CNN
website: "If this event had gone ahead it would not be less than 9/11 in the sense of far-reaching consequences and
after-effects." he added: "A handful of individuals, it does not matter whether they are related to mosque or church,
cannot be given the right to flippantly play about with peaceful co-existence, and their so-called sentiments cannot
be preferred over global peace."
[86]
Islamic State
Qadri views an Islamic state as a Muslim-majority country which respects freedom, the rule of law, global human
rights (including religious freedom), social welfare, women's rights and the rights of minorities.
[87]
He also claims that the Constitution of Medina "declared the state of Madinah as a political unit". He also mentions
that the Constitution declared the "indivisible composition of the Muslim nation (Ummah)".
[88]
With respect to the Constitution of Medina, Qadri says: "This was the constitution, which provided the guarantee of
fundamental human rights in our history." He believes that "a constitution is a man-made law and by no means it can
be declared superior to a God-made law."
[88]
He believes in the Sovereignty of God’s law, that the Qur'an and Sunnah equates to State law, and that Islam
encourages political activity. Qadri sees Islam as a faith which allows political participation. He believes in
democracy and human rights, and argues that rights are defined in Islam by the Qur'an and Sunnah.
Political career
On May 25, 1989, Qadri founded a political party Pakistan Awami Tehreek or PAT. The main aims of this political
party are to introduce the culture of true democracy, economic stability, improve the state of human rights, justice
and the women's role in Pakistan. The PAT also aims to remove corruption from Pakistani politics. Its official
website contains its formal manifesto.
[89]
In 1990, Pakistan Awami Tehreek (PAT) participated in the national elections just one year after it was founded. In
1991, PAT and TNFJ (Tehreek-e-Nifaz-e-Fiqh-e-Jafria A shia political group ) now known as Tehreek-e-Jafria
[90]
signed a 'Communique of Unity' in order to promotes social and religious harmony. In another creative move, PAT
for the first time in the political history of Pakistan, introduced an idea of "working relationship" between the three
national political forces, PAT, TNFJ and Tehreek-e-Istaqlal.
From 1989 to 1993, Qadri continuously worked as an opposition leader tying to indicate the government's mistakes 
and to suggest ways for improving the situation in the political, educational, and economical fields. In 1992 he

Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri
92
presented a complete working plan for interest-free banking in Pakistan covering all kinds of national and
international transaction which was recognized and appreciated by all sections of the society including industrial and
banking professionals. PAT offices were also opened in major foreign countries.
[91]
Qadri continued his research alongside his political career and, in 1996, he presented a thesis on the utilization of an
observatory for moon sighting based on the more recent scientific findings.
[92]
He was elected as an MNA (Member of the National Assembly) of his Lahore constituent on the Pakistani National
Parliament. On 29 November 2004, Qadri announced his resignation as a Member of the National Assembly.
[93]
Explaining his resignation he cited the President's broken promises, political corruption and blackmailing, the
undemocratic system, institutional inabilities, failures of accountability, the sabotage of National Assembly, global
issues including Pakistan-US relations, international terrorism and US global domination, Israeli aggression, the Iraq
war, Islamabad-Delhi relations including the Kashmir dispute and Pakistan-Afghanistan relations. His 41-page
resignation statement is available online to read.
[94]
In a January 2011 address to a meeting of MQI’s Majlis-e-Shura in Lahore, Qadri stated that the current political
system of Pakistan protects a 3% ruling elite, while the 97%, who are mainly poor people, have effectively become
slaves of this corrupt political system.
[95][96]
Qadri is still influential in Pakistani politics , on October 6, 2011, Supreme Court of Pakistan ordered action on
Karachi violence after the Chief Justice of Pakistan Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry took a suo motu notice on the
appeal of Dr Tahir ul Qadri.
[95][97]
On 19 November 2011, speaking via video to a student rally at Punjab University, Lahore, Qadri requested the
people to rise against the current political system like an Egyptian-style revolt.
[98] 
He urged the youth to rebel
against the corrupt system and play their role in a Pakistani mass movement.
[99] 
During a press conference via video
conference on 24 November, Qadri stated that even 100 elections under the current corrupt political system will not
bring any change in Pakistan and announced that his political party will start countrywide peaceful rallies.
[100]
