CHARSADDA: Unidentified gunmen shot dead a renowned religious scholar and administrator of Darul Uloom Jamia Muhammadia, Maulana Haq Nawaz, in Matta Mughalkhel village on Wednesday.
It was learnt that the assailants targeted the 50-year-old Maulana Haq Nawaz, who was referred to as Sheikhul Hadith because of his expertise in teaching the sayings of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), when he was on way to mosque to offer the morning Fajr prayer in Matta Mughalkhel. “Maulana Haq died on the spot and the accused managed to escape,” said a villager.
The incident left the residents of Matta Mughalkhel in shock and they spontaneously came out of their houses and blocked various roads in Charsadda district to protest the gruesome incident. The protest disrupted the flow of traffic.
The funeral prayer for the slain religious scholar, who was associated with Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F), offered in Matta Mughalkhel and he was laid to rest in the village graveyard.
