Who the heck is Dr Tahir ul Qadri?? what is TMQ??

[Gentelman]

Who is he?
We had never heard of this guy?
Where did he come from?
All of a sudden, from nowhere, Dr Tahirul
Qadri drops into Manto Park and holds one
of the largest rallies in the history of the
Pakistan Minor park.
Apparently this is: http://
Shaykh-Ul-Islam Dr. Muhammad Tahir ul Qadri | Islamic Researcher & Patron in Chief of Minhaj-Ul-Quran International
His website describes him as: “Shaykh-ul-
Islam Dr Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri is the
founding leader of Minhaj-ul-Qur’an
International (MQI), an organization with
branches and centres in more than 90
countries around the globe, working for the
promotion of peace and harmony between
communities and the revival of spiritual
endeavour based on the true teachings of
Islam.”
“Shaykh-ul-Islam was born on February 19,
1951 in the historical city of Jhang, Pakistan,
and is the son of the great spiritualist and
intellectual of his time ash-Shaykh Dr
Farida’d-Din al-Qadri.”
“his formal classical education was initiated
in Madina at the age of 12, in Madrasa
al-‘Ulum ash-Shar‘iyya, which was situated
in the blessed house of Sayyiduna Abu
Ayyub al-Ansari, the first residence of the
Holy Prophet (blessings and peace be upon
him) after his migration. By the time he had
received a First Class Honours Degree from
the University of the Punjab in 1970, he had
also completed his Classical Islamic Studies,
having spent over ten years under the
tutelage of his father and other eminent
Shuyukh of his time and achieving an
unparalleled understanding of the classical
shari‘a sciences and Arabic language. He
earned his MA in Islamic Studies in 1972
with the University of the Punjab Gold
Medal, achieved his LLB in 1974 and began
to practise as a lawyer in the district courts
of Jhang. He moved to Lahore in 1978 and
joined the University of the Punjab as a
lecturer in law and then gained his PhD in
Islamic Law.”
He talks about this that and the other, and
then threatens the government to hold
elections within 90 days. He wants the PPP
to establish an intermin government almost
immediately and so on and so forth.
Dr Qadri’s speech was punched with slogans
“Siasat Nahi, Riasat Bachao (save the state,
not politics) and “Nizam Badlo” (change the
system).
Our question is, who died and left you as
God? What is all this about?
“We give you a three-week deadline, up to
Jan 14, in this regard. And if you do not
accept our genuine demand, millions of
people will start marching from Jan 10
towards Islamabad to hold a grand and
peaceful protest rally there to press you till
the acceptance of their demands for a
change in the corrupt governing and
electoral system.” Mr Qadri speaking at
length at Manto Park (Minar-i-Pakistan) on
Sunday.
Only the MQM knows who he is, because
they sent a powerful 50 person delegation to
his speech.
“And when our own Supreme Court has
declared that the governments of
Balochistan and Sindh and the federal
government have failed to end corruption
and maintain law and order they should no
more function… “Why we don’t follow this
good practice for a change. And what is the
harm if we follow this for the sake of
bringing reforms in our country.” Mr. Qadri.
“I just ask the Chief Election Commissioner,
Chief Justice of Pakistan, political parties and
other stakeholders if they are following
these constitutional conditions before
holding elections,” he said and regretted
that except for the article which called for
holding elections within 90 days, no other
articles were being followed. “Before
holding transparent elections, these articles
must be followed. Otherwise, elections will
not be fair and people will see corrupt
politicians again sitting in parliament.” Dr
Qadri.
“I am with you if you demand the ending of
drone attacks, addressing the law and order
situation and ending corruption, killing of
innocent people and intervention of external
powers in our country’s affairs. But I will
not be with you if you carry out terrorism.”
Dr. Qadri.
“Look my objective is not to derail
democracy in Pakistan. In our country, the
poor are becoming poorer and the rich are
becoming richer. In order to end this gap as
well as corruption, we need a massive
restructuring of our state.” Dr. Qadri.
His website describes him as:
“Shaykh-ul-Islam founded Minhaj-ul-Qur’an
in 1981 and established its headquarters in
Lahore. In less than 30 years, Minhaj-ul-
Qur’an has expanded and spread over more
than 90 countries around the world; and in
terms of its comprehensive and all-
encompassing sphere of activities,
educational, social, cultural and spiritual,
Minhaj-ul-Qur’an is probably one of the
largest non-governmental organizations in
the world.”

He must be a zionist tool for conspiracy against Pakistan's "innocent" politicians

LAHORE: Surprised by the lavish spending
on the publicity of Dr Tahirul Qadri's public
address at Minar-e-Pakistan, politicians
have demanded the Pakistan Awami Tehreek
leader explain from where these billions of
rupees came from and for what purpose.
Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz's Senator
Tariq Azeem has said that Qadri spent
"billion of rupees on his publicity campaign,
and "he should tell people about the source
of the huge funds". "Qadri wants to reform
the system, in which politicians spend
millions of rupees on their political
campaigns to reach the assemblies, but he
himself has spent billions of rupees on his
publicity campaign," he said.
Senator Azeem said that "Qadri's dual
personality" would be exposed to the
people soon. "As the Tehreek-e-Minhaj-ul-
Quran has accepted dual citizenship of its
leader, it should explain whether Qadri's
dual nationality was mentioned in the
nomination papers submitted during the
2002 elections," he demanded.
PML-N MNA Abid Sher Ali asked the chief
justice of Pakistan and the chief election
commissioner to investigate the record of
Qadri's publicity campaign. "He should
explain from where this huge amount came
from and what objectives he aims to
achieve," said the PML-N leader. He asked
the political parties and the Election
Commission of Pakistan to look seriously
into "who is funding and backing Qadri in
efforts to delay elections".
Punjab Planning and Development Minister
Chaudhry Abdul Ghafoor said that change
through ballot was the need of the hour, but
the country could not afford any
adventurism at the moment. "After Pakistan
Tehreek-e-Insaf's (PTI) tsunami, Qadri's
show proved a failure," he said, adding that
the PML-N would foil any plot to delay the
elections.
"People are with Nawaz Sharif and only he
will laid the foundation of new Pakistan by
bringing the country out of crises," he said.
MNA Rana Tanveer Hussain said that only an
elected government had the right to decide
the fate of the country. He said that the
politicians could play an important role to
strengthen the institutions by following the
constitutional limits.

Qadri spent Rs 250m: Sana - thenews.com.pk


LAHORE: Provincial Minister for Law Rana Sanaullah has said that holding big public meetings by any party does not mean that it is politically strong or enjoys the support of the masses.

Talking to the media on the Punjab Assembly premises on Monday, he said that Tahirul Qadri, who had made efforts for the whole year and held a public meeting by spending Rs 25-30 crore, could also hold a bigger public meeting by spending Rs 50-60 crore.

He said the public meeting of December 23 had nullified the public meeting of October 30 and the pawn played by the establishment on October 30 had been captured and the objective of having a hung parliament by the establishment was not being achieved. He said the establishment neither wanted “Change Khan” to win nor Tahirl Qadri and it only wanted a hung parliament.

He said the establishment should stop his game because holding free and transparent elections were in best interest of the nation. He said how Qadri could talk of poor people while he travelled in three bulletproof vehicles with 10 guards.

Where Dr Qadri is right, and wrong

ISLAMABAD: Dr Tahirul Qadri may have pristine vision to reform the electoral system that may sound convincing to some taking his dream on the face of it, but his several assertions, which he made in his address to the Minar-e-Pakistan public meeting, clash with the Constitution that he wants to adhere to.

He ominously asked the government to revolutionise the electoral system as per his desire in just three weeks, outlawing the corrupt and dishonest lot, but at no stage he even hinted at approaching the Supreme Court, the real forum, to get declared null and void the forthcoming “unconstitutional elections” and all the polls laws that he detests and feels they protect fraudulent elements and let them flourish.

Qadri’s demand that the army and judiciary should also be involved in picking up the federal and provincial caretaker setups runs counter to the Constitution because these institutions have no role whatsoever as per the basic document.

Under the Constitution, the prime minister, provincial chief ministers and leaders of opposition in the outgoing national and provincial assemblies have the authority to pick up interim setups. In case of their and bipartisan parliamentary committees’ failure to do so, the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) has the power to decide from amongst the nominees sent by the outgoing prime minister, chief ministers and opposition leaders to select the caretakers.

Qadri’s claim that the present electoral and political system is a sheer violation of the Constitution doesn’t sound impressive because had that been so, the independent judiciary would have struck it down. Rather, Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry, who leads the judiciary, has always stood for the continuation of the democratic and electoral system under the present legal and constitutional arrangement and lauded the current parliament.

At times, Qadri was self-contradictory. For example, he has repeatedly declared that he has not come back to Pakistan from abroad to get the next elections postponed. But what he said at the rally tells a different story.

If he doesn’t want the polls delayed, following some agenda, and then why did he say: “All I want is complete implementation of the Constitution whether it takes more than 90 days to correct the rotten system, which is also allowed by the Constitution under article 254 that says the extra time taken to bring the system in line with the Constitution would not invalidate the move.”

This provision titled “failure to comply with requirement as to time does not render an act invalid” says when any act or thing is required by the Constitution to be done within a particular period and it is not done within that, the doing of the act or thing shall not be invalid or otherwise ineffective by reason only that it was not done within that period.

However, if a certain mandatory thing is not done deliberately, this article would not cover such act. Qadri’s view clearly conflicts with the chief justice’s oft-stated declaration that delay or postponement of elections would not be allowed. The parliamentary polls can only be put off only if there is a civil war in the country, he recently stated.

By talking about going beyond the constitutionally mandated ninety days to hold elections, he created doubts about his own sworn words that he has no such intention. When his demand is seen with the desire of certain elements, who are in search of excuses to delay the elections, it reinforces the suspicion that he has come back to Pakistan with a mission to accomplish.

It would be the masses, he warned, who would take decisions at the “people’s parliament” in Islamabad on January 14 in their interest, which professional MPs had been refraining from taking throughout Pakistan’s history. But in reality, it would be he who would guide them to do certain things because they would assemble on his call. He may have in mind his future course of action, but he did not unveil it at the Lahore rally.

Both the major political parties, the PML-N and PPP, quickly dismissed Qadri’s high sounding demands, assertions and declarations as inconsequential. Considering their attitude and policies towards him, they will not “reform” the electoral system as he presses. Only they can realize his dream as they possess the parliamentary power.

The only worthwhile party, the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM), which backed Qadri is in no position to translate his demands into reality. Its support is more of a moral nature.

“Elections without reforms will be meaningless and people will reject the results if they are held under the existing system. Pakistan’s political and economic system has collapsed, as it revolves around wealthy, landed aristocrats, and industrialists, and has failed to allow honest people to reach parliament,” he opined.

Except the MQM, there was no taker of Qadri’s philosophy across the political and religious spectrum. Political parties’ reaction varied in severity. The PML-N was more attacking and took his entry at this point of time as a conspiracy to get the elections put off, and to shave off its electoral prospects. The PPP was not less unkind. “Save state, not politics is a slogan of dictators,” PPP leader Manzoor Wattoo said.

Qadri favours military’s role in formation of caretaker govt
From the Newspaper | Khalid Hasnain | 19 hours ago 0
http://dawn.com/2012/12/26/qadri-favours-militarys-role-in-formation-of-caretaker-govt/




LAHORE: Tehrik-i-Minhajul Quran (TMQ) chief Tahirul Qadri said on Tuesday that his party had not yet decided to contest elections because it was presently focused on accomplishing its one-point agenda: formation of an honest and trustworthy caretaker government in consultation with the military, judiciary and other stakeholders.

Talking to Dawn, he said the caretaker government should hold free and fair elections in 90 days or so after introducing massive electoral reforms under the Constitution.

“Presently, we only want an independent and honest caretaker set-up after consultations between the military, judiciary and other stakeholders. It should not be a result of a ‘mukmuka’ (deal) between the two parties (PPP and PML-N) alone. So this is our one-point agenda at the moment and we want it to be accomplished by Jan 10,” Dr Qadri said.

Asked about justification of his campaign for a caretaker government and electoral reforms despite being a Canadian national, the TMQ chief said he was doing nothing in violation of rules or the Constitution.

“I am a dual national of Pakistan and Canada. I am a Pakistan national by birth and origin and Canadian national by choice. And I can hold both nationalities under the rules and the agreements our country has made with several countries,” he argued.

“The Constitution only forbids dual nationals like me from contesting elections and holding public office. As I have not yet decided to contest elections and hold any public office in future, it is not binding on me to lead or participate in the rallies like our recent one to push Islamabad initiate process and form a caretaker set-up that could hold elections after massive cleansing through electoral reforms under the Constitution,” he said.

He said he would give up his Canadian citizenship if he decided to take part in elections.

Asked whether or not the PPP or the PML-N had contacted him to postpone his long march call and rally of millions in Islamabad for Jan 14, he said no one from the two parties had contacted him to date.

“Only Chaudhry Shujaat and Pervaiz Elahi of PML-Q, Shah Mehmood Qureshi and Aleem Khan of PTI, Difaa-i-Pakistan Council chairman Maulana Samiul Haq and former president Pervez Musharraf have contacted me and congratulated for holding a successful rally at Minar-i-Pakistan. They have also sought a meeting with me on issues the country is facing,” he said.

In reply to a question whether he had any plan to have an electoral alliance with the MQM or PTI, Dr Qadri said his party was at present concentrating on its one-point agenda of a trustworthy and honest caretaker set-up for transparent elections.

“We may think about this in case we decide to participate in elections or not,” he said.

His attention was drawn to an example cited by him in his Sunday rally about a caretaker set-up in Italy, Tahirul Qadri said he had not called for such an arrangement in Pakistan.His reaction was sought on a remark by a judicial commission which disapproved of his conduct during a hearing in a case of alleged attempt on his life in 1990, he said the then government had set up a one-man administrative tribunal, and not a judicial commission, to investigate the case.

“I appeared a number of times and produced around 25 witnesses before the tribunal. At a time when the body was about to decide the case, the government abolished it and formed an LHC judicial commission. Later, I started appearing before this commission and asked whether or not it would start its work from the point where the tribunal had left it. It (the commission) started probing the case afresh. So I was disappointed and boycotted its proceedings. And later they issued such a verdict,” he said.

Asked about his strategy for the march to Islamabad on Jan 14, Dr Qadri said although he and his party were determined not to end this event till acceptance of his demands, the rally’s participants will decide whether to stay there or not.
