A senior leader of Jamiat Ulama-e-Islam Fazl (JUI-F), Maulana Muhammad Khan Sherani advocates normalization of diplomatic ties with Israel.
He expressed his views during an interview with a local TV, part of which was shared by Noor Dahri, a UK-based pro-Israel scholar on Twitter.
In the viral video clip, Maulana Sherani, the former chairman of the Council of Islamic Ideology (CII), gave Quranic references to support the normalization of relations with the Jewish state.

Declaring it an international issue, Sherani said he supports recognition of the state of Israel.
“Educated Muslims need to understand that the Quran and history prove to us that the Land of Israel belongs only to the Jews. King David built the house of God in Jerusalem for the Israelis and not for the Palestinians.”
While Pakistan’s mainstream media might have missed out on this news, Israel’s one of the most-read newspaper, Israel Hayom, has carried the story as ‘breaking news.’

Last week, Dahri had claimed citing ‘credible’ sources that Maulana Fazl-ur-Rehman’s close aide had traveled to Israel with Nawaz Sharif’s secret delegations during his second term as premier.
Interestingly, Maryam Nawaz had tweeted Dahri’s claim, before realizing the blunder and deleting it.

Let See, What Action Taken By Ministry of Interior? FIA ? CYBER CELL, PEMRA, PTA ETC OR HUKUMAT
Recognizing Israelis like hammering a nail in one’s coffin. It will be a justification of Israeli aggression against Palestinians and Indian aggression against Kashmiris. Nossir! We cannot recognize Israel. Salams
WE CANNOT ACCEPT ISRAEL TILL THE DECISION OF PALESTINE AND KASHMIR
BOTH SHOULD BE DECLARE INDEPENDENT COUNTRY:
Recognizing Israel will give zero benefit to Pakistan.It it not like they will become best friends of Pakistan instead they will legally establish terrorism and spy centers in Pakistan in the name of consulate.
Accepting Isreal without giving rights to the Palestinians would mean accepting Indian, China and Myanmar’s narrative against Muslims. All countries mentioned have no laws that protects Muslims from the government.
What this mulla fails to understand is that the jews the Quran refers to as owner of that land were Muslims of that time. Its not talking about the Jews of nodern times. What he also fails to understand is the fact that the Quran also says that these jews will be put under feet two times. One time already happwned. Waiting fir the second time that this fitn is crushed.
Pakistan have recognized a non Muslim country India and several other non-Muslim countries in Africa, Europe,USA etc etc. So Pakistan must recognize Israel now. Even India did not provided freedom rights to Kashmiris then Pakistan must not put condition of Palestinian liberation.
Pakistan cannot accept Israel without term and conditions. Land does not matter, what matters is that Israel is killing Muslim brothers and sisters for that piece of land.
Pakistan should stand its ground fast, no matter the isolation of Arab countries. We need no one except Allah if our cause is JUST.
he is paid stooge of “establishment” he got sold for $$$$$$
