In the like situations we all have to unite against the anti-Islam forces, which were busy in hatching conspiracies against Islam and Muslims of the world,” he urged. The Jamaatud Dawa Ameer Hafiz Saeed said the US imposed war against Muslims in Afghanistan in the name of ‘war against terrorism’ in which thousands of innocent people were killed.
