A group of clerics (religious scholars) from the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) on January 9 issued a fatwa condemning terrorism and stating that Jihad can only be declared by the head of an Islamic state, not by individuals, reports Samaa TV. In the fatwa (religious edict), the scholars declared that not everyone has the right to declare Jihad, and that avoiding the laws of the land is unlawful. They also stated that it is haram (forbidden or unlawful) to take up arms and wage war against police and military personnel. If soldiers and policemen are killed while protecting Pakistan, they are considered martyrs, according to the fatwa. The fatwa also addressed the issue of rebellion against the State, stating that insurgency against the ruler of the time is considered sedition, and that perpetrators deserve punishment. It stated that sedition and rioting within the Islamic state, as well as incitement against the state, are not permitted under Sharia (Islamic law). The fatwa declared that anyone involved in sedition is considered to be rebelling against the Constitution of Pakistan. The 14-page fatwa has been signed by 16 religious scholars from difference schools of thought, including Maulana Qari Ehsanul Haq, Mufti Subhanallah Jan, Dr Maulana Attaur Rehman, Maulana Hussain Ahmed, Maulana Dr Abdul Nasir, Mufti Mukhtarullah Haqqani, Maulana Tayyab Qureshi, Maulana Salmanul Haq Haqqani, Maulana Rehmatullah Qadri, Maulana Umar bin Abdul Aziz, Allama Abid Hussain Shakri, Mufti Mairajul Din Sarkani, Mufti Raza Mohammad Haqqani, Mufti Khalid Usmani, Mufti Sheikh Aijaz and Maulana Abdul Kareem. KP Chief Khateeb Maulana Tayyab Qureshi, one of the signatories, said the Ulema had issued the fatwa to answer some questions related to jihad. Maulana Tayyab Qureshi said: “Recently some so-called ulema tried to create chaos using Islam. After that, it became our responsibility to issue the fatwa.”

A Provincial Home and Tribal Affairs Department report said that the Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam – Fazl (JUI-F) is the most vulnerable among mainstream political parties to terrorist attacks in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, while next on the list are the Pakistan Muslim League - Nawaz (PML-N) and Awami National Party (ANP), Dawn reported on November 26. The report, a copy of which is available with Dawn, comes after the November 22 meeting of the Provincial Intelligence Coordination Committee. Political leaders, who are businesspersons by profession, too, are threatened by militant groups into paying extortion, according to the report submitted by the department to the Peshawar High Court in connection with a PTI petition for contempt proceedings against the provincial government and Mansehra administration for blocking its workers’ convention in the district despite the court’s orders. The report also said there were “significant threats to the PTI due to its anti-establishment stand.” “These threats emanate from the Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan and other militant groups, which desire to cash [in on] this opportunity to pressure and malign the present government,” the report said. It also said that the areas in close proximity to Afghan border or bordering tribal districts showed “heightened threats.” The report said that 360 people were killed and 958 injured in 738 terrorist attacks between January and November 2023 with the deceased including 121 civilians and 239 members of law-enforcement agencies.
