Saad rejects opposition’s claim of removing Finality of Prophethood clause from Election Bill

ISLAMABAD, Oct 3 (APP) Minister for Railway Khawaja
Saad Rafique Tuesday turned down opposition parties’ claim
about removing the clause Finality of Prophethood
(Khatm-e-Nabuwat) from the Election Bill 2017.
The minister, in his Tweet, said, “People should not be
misled by telling lie and using the name of last Prophet
Hazrat Muhammd Peace Be Upon Him (PBUH) that a clause of
Finality of Prophethood had been removed from the bill.”
The minister said a copy of Election Bill 2017 had been
available at website of the legislation section of the National
Assembly since October 2, and the propaganda in that regard
should be avoided.
He asked people not to believe in negative propaganda of the
opposition. “In the Election Bill 2017, no change has been made
in the Finality of Prophethood (Khatam-e-Nabuwat) affidavit.
Saad also copied the relevant clause of the bill, in his
tweet as follows: “I believe in the absolute and unqualified
Finality of the Prophethood of Muhammad Peace Be Upon Him, the
last of the prophets and that I am not follower of anyone who
claims to be a prophet in any sense of the world, or of any
description whatsoever after Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him
and I do not recognize such a claimant to the prophet, or a
religions reformer, nor do I belong to the Qadiani group, or
the Lahori group, or call myself an Ahmadi.”
