Islamic laws
crystal clear, unambiguous: Chief Justice
Bureau Report
LAHORE—Chief Justice of Pakistan Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry has
observed Islamic laws are crystal clear, free from any ambiguity and a
complete code of life which encompass all the matters including Khulla,
divorce, human rights and other issues of human life.
He was addressing inauguration ceremony of a magazine “Pakistan law
revenue” here Sunday. Head of law department of Delhi university India,
Ameeta Agarwal, professor Humayun Ehsan and magazine editor Tasneem
Kausar also spoke on the occasion. The famous poem “ Yarab Dilley Muslim
Ko “ was read out as prayer for the chief justice during the ceremony.
The chief justice said this prayer should be recited not only for me and
my fellow judges but also for the entire judiciary so that it could
perform its obligations in a fashion that would ensure betterment and
welfare for the entire nation and justice could be provided to the
deserved ones. Appreciating the material published in the magazine, he
said the material provided in the periodical is research oriented and
knowledge based.
The material not only refutes the charges of terrorism but also it makes
it clear that high quality education is imparted in the country and
Pakistan is not a terrorist society. Chief Justice noted that the
educational institutions are operating like mushroom all over the
country and they are aimed at minting money only rather than educating
the people in the discipline of law. Therefore, the standard of
education in law subject is deteriorating, which should be taken note
of.
“ I will talk no more on this matter as the case for regularization of
these institutions have come up. I have set up committee under the chief
justice of Lahore High Court on this issue. However, bar council should
also play its role in this regard”, he urged. Citing Islamic laws, he
said Islamic teachings fully cover each and every aspect of human life. |
