This prayer service was organized by the Peace Center, URI and Muslim Christian Dialogue Forum of Minhaj ul Quran International. Maulana Abdul Khabir Azad, Grand Imam of the Badshahi Mosque also joined us. I am also pasting his photos aswell


Several URI members and leaders were present to prayer for peace and justice and those included, Maulana Abdul Khabir Azad, Rev. Dr. Marqus Fida, Chaudhary Barkat, Yuel Bhatti, Sohail Ahmed Raza and others. 

We raised voice for the voiceless and demanded justice for all and judicial inquiry in the burning to death of a Christian couple on account of false accusation of blasphemy of desecrating the pages of the Holy Quran.  May Peace Prevail On Earth!


I would like to share with you that today I am going to meet Mr. Muhammad Sarwar, Governor of the Punjabon this issue. In this delegation there will also be Hafiz Tahir Mehmood Ashrafi, Chairman, Pakistan Ulama Council,and Church of Pakistan (Protestant) Bishop Samuel Robert Azariah.

May Peace Prevail On Earth!
