Wrong blasphemy accusations must be dealt with strictly: Imam-e-Kaaba

ISLAMABAD: Imam-e-Kaaba Shaikh Saleh Bin Muhammad Ibrahim on Sunday said that those who falsely accuse people of blasphemy should be strictly dealt with.

The Imam-e-Kaaba was speaking to Geo News. He said that Islam is a religion of peace, forgiveness, and tolerance.

He further said that people should be given the message of Islam in a peaceful way.

Shaikh Saleh Bin Muhammad Ibrahim said that people should be guided and preached in the best way possible.

The Imam-e-Kaaba’s statement came a few days later after the mob lynching of a university student named Mashal Khan in Mardan, over alleged blasphemy.

Imam-e-Kaaba arrived in Pakistan in the first week of April.
