“The President has got a good opportunity to ensure his place in Heaven by granting pardon to Qadri as God will be very happy with him (Zardari) for pardoning a faithful Muslim by using his discretionary powers.”

Tiny Minority of Extremists Update: “1,000 Pakistani clerics seek pardon for Governor’s assassin,” from the Press Trust of India, August 1:

A thousand Pakistani clerics have asked President Asif Ali Zardari to pardon Mumtaz Qadri, the policeman sentenced to death for assassinating Punjab Governor Salmaan Taseer in 2011.The clerics belonging to different schools of Islamic thought signed a letter seeking a pardon for Qadri, and it was submitted to the President by Sunni Ittehad Council chairman Sahibzada Hamid Raza.

In October 2011, an anti-terrorism court awarded the death penalty to Qadri, an Elite Force commando, for gunning down Taseer in Islamabad earlier the same year.

The policeman, who was part of Taseer’s security detail, confessed to the murder and said he was angered by Taseer’s calls for changes in Pakistan’s controversial blasphemy law.

  1. Interesting, what a price for Zardari to get place in heaven against just a pardon for Qadri the killer of Salman Taseer. And how the people assuring Zardari of heaven and what guarantee. Not understandable this logic.

  2. One can only ponder how wrongly these Mullahs understand this peace loving religion. God may save Islam from such fools.

  3. The knowledge of paradise and hell its known to Allah alone.
    The hly prpht saw said the mullahs will b yhe worst creatures on earth, fitna wil b from them and will go back to them. The damage caused by these so called mullahs or mulullas to islam its unrepairable.Muslims ask these mullahs whom do they follow hly prpht Muhammad saw? No way they are after money, power and they hide in islam am lucky to b a convert to islam Ahmadiyya all the way from jungles of Africa which fulfils the prophecy of promised messiah that he will take his message in all corners of the earth.
    Wake up Muslims before its too late accpt the messiah as or get ripped by these mulullas.

  4. Yes, Muslim scholars of this age who, according to the Qur’an and the statements of the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) are like donkeys, monkeys, and pigs.
    1. Donkeys: who carry books on their backs but don’t know what they mean.
    2. Monkeys: who copy but don’t know the significance of what they copy.
    3. Pigs: who devour good and spit good into garbage.
    So you are right about leaders saying this. But there are leaders who say against this as well and who condemn terrorism and who hold Islam as a religion of peace and love.

    [Qur’an 3:187] “… you shall surely hear many hurtful things from those who were given the Book before you and from those who set up equals to God. But if you show fortitude and act righteously, that indeed is a matter of strong determination.”
