Express Tribune: by Tahir Khan: Top leaders of the country’s politico-religious parties are set to launch a new apolitical front on Monday in an effort to put the genie of sectarianism back into the bottle.
The proposed Islamic Front will be launched at a daylong conference in Islamabad and will try to resolve myopic sectarian differences by harmonising Friday sermons in the country’s mosques.
It will also lobby for the implementation of the recommendations of the Council of Islamic Ideology (CII), the apex constitutional body which advises the government on the Islamic status of the country’s laws.
“Nearly 40 leaders and representatives of politico-religious parties and groups have been invited to the conference, titled Ummah Unity and Islamic Solidarity,” Qazi Hussain Ahmed, former chief of the Jamaat-e-Islami, told The Express Tribune.
He preempted the impression that the front would be a rival of the right-wing bloc, the Defence of Pakistan Council, or that it would be the Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal reincarnated.

Keep trying. You will find that real unity will come only under (Ahmadiyya-) Khilafat.
The source of the problem is not the solution.
Quaid-E-Azam the founder of Pakistan was totally against the theocracy ( Mullah-ism). They are all sectarian political leaders. They politicize the religion to take political millage.In other words they use religion to take the political benefits. Islam is basically a secular religion ( La Iqrah Fi Din) not a Theoretic ( Mullah-ism) Religion. When you not give all Pakistani Nationals an equal status, sectarianism will grow and Kafir making industry will grow.The majority sect will try to declare all other sect Non-Muslims to get full control over government.If you want to close this (Kafir-Making ) Non-Muslim making industry to close then please separate the Religion from State and give equal rights to all citizens of Pakistan as The founder of Pakistan’s vision was.
