Jamaat-e-Islami Ameer Dr Shafiqur Rahman stated that the credit for the August 5 mass uprising does not belong to any political party, but rather to the students and the people.
He remarked that the nation has been freed from fascism through the bloodshed and sacrifices of the youth and the general public.
“We seek to earn the genuine love of the people through our work. We do not want divisions between the minority and the majority. We envision a society where temples, like mosques, do not require security. If anyone attempts to disrupt our harmony, we must unite to resist them,” he said.
Dr Shafiqur Rahman made these remarks as the chief guest at a workers’ conference organized by Sylhet Metropolitan Jamaat, held at the Kushiyara International Convention Hall South Surma in Sylhet on Friday.
The event was presided over by Muhammad Fakhrul Islam, a member of Jamaat’s Central Executive Committee and Ameer of Sylhet Metropolitan Jamaat, and conducted by Secretary Muhammad Shahjahan Ali. Several thousand workers from the city attended the conference. In his address, Dr Shafiqur Rahman added that during the regime of the ‘fallen fascist’, Jamaat-e-Islami suffered the most oppression. “Our top leaders were executed on charges of crimes against humanity, and they were martyred. Today, history has marked them as the real perpetrators of crimes against humanity,” he concluded.
After a long time, there was excitement among the leaders and activists of all levels of the Sylhet Metropolitan Jamaat, centered around the workers’ conference. Before 3 o’clock, the Kushiara convention hall was crowded. At one point, the outside of the hall was seen to be filled to the brim with the crowd of workers present.
Jamaat-e-Islami Central Assistant Secretary General Advocate Ehsanul Mahbub Zubair, Central Executive Council Member and Dhaka Metropolitan North Ameer Muhammad Salim Uddin, Central Majlis Shura Member Maulana Habibur Rahman, District North Ameer Hafiz Anwar Hossain Khan, District South Ameer Principal Abdul Hannan spoke as special guests. In the speech of the chief guest, Dr. Shafiqur Rahman said, Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami was the most oppressed during the fallen fascist government. They hanged our top leaders and martyred them in cases of crimes against humanity.
Today they are identified as criminals against humanity in history. Our 2 top leaders served in two ministries. But there was no evidence of even 2 rupees of corruption against them.
Because they were the leaders of the movement to establish his religion in the land of Allah. Jamaat wants to give the gift of such leadership.
Wants to build a prosperous Bangladesh free from terrorism and corruption. For this, a group of believers is needed. By taking the final oath, a worker can acquire the leadership qualities of the Islamic movement.
