Enemy Just Seeking to Cast Division, Aspersion Among Muslims 

The Deputy Head of Pakistan's Majlis Wahdat-e-Muslimeen of International Affairs said the world's arrogant powers have been trying during the past years to cast divisions among the people of Pakistan in terms of language and religious sects.

Shafaqat Hussein Shirazi pointed out: "Despite what it seems, the people of Pakistan have good relations with each other, and even the Shia and Sunnis interact with each other, and the Takfiri groups in Pakistan are absolutely not from the people."

Still, as the next speaker, the Iraqi MP Majid Ghammas Abu Arif boasted the Iraqi people's relations with the Afghan people living in Iraq as consolidated as they are studying religious courses in Najaf seminary schools.

Stressing that the Afghans living in Iraq have played an important role in the country's political arena, Abu Arif said: " I emphasize that the religion and faith have brought about convergence between us and our Afghan brothers in the past and present years."

He noted that the Resistance Front in the region was shaped thanks to the regional people's sacrifices and the Islamic Republic of Iran played a significant role in this respect.
