Lahore: 30 Muftis of Sunni Ittehad Council issued a joint fatwa to defend Polio vaccine campaign across country. According to fatwa Details, these Islamic scholars mentioned in Fatwa that Polio campaign should continue in country. Polio vaccine is right and it should stay in progress.
Polio campaign is not contradictory with Islamic Shariah, Fatwa narrated. Polio vaccine can help to protect children from disability and that’s why Polio campaign should implement in Pakistan.
Fatwa also argued that killing of polio vaccination workers is part of defaming Islam. And if someone is stopping anyone from Polio work, then he is working against Islam. It’s worth mentioning here that last week around 9 Polio workers were killed in three days and some injured. No one took responsibility of these attacks and it’s looking part of war against terrorism. On other hand, Sunni Ittehad Council is currently also busy in protest against drone Attacks and Anti-Islamic movie.
