A riot of protesters disregarded the holiness of the consecrated site and heckled slogans against the Prime Minister and other government personnel who entered Masjid-e-Nabawi to pay homage at the Roza-e-Rasool (PBUH).
The dissidents passed slanderous comments against Minister for Information Marriyum Aurangzeb, and also attacked Jamhoori Wattan Party (JWP) leader Shahzain Bugti.
Following the occurrence government officials, religious leaders and Muslim around the globe have expressed outrage at the lamentable episode and fervently denounced it.
JUI-F chief Maulana Fazl-ur-Rehman as well condemned the incident and said Haram-e-Medina is a place of respect for the entire Muslim Ummah.
حرم مدینہ تمام امت کےلیےادب گاہ ھےاوریہاں اونچی آوازبھی قران وسنت کی تعلیمات کےمطابق صرف آداب کےخلاف ھی نہیں بلکہ حبط اعمال کاسبب بھی بنتاھے
جوآج حرمِ مدنی میں ھوااس سےذیادہ حرم کی توھین اورنہیں ھوسکتی۔ جولوگ رسول اللہ کے گھرکی حرمت کاپاس نہیں رکھ سکتےوہ انکےنام لیواکیسےھونگے؟1/3— Maulana Fazl-ur-Rehman (@MoulanaOfficial) April 28, 2022
“Speaking loudly in the mosque is against Islamic etiquette,” he said. “Whatever happened there today couldn’t be more insulting to the holy site. Those who cannot respect the sanctity of the house of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) cannot claim to follow his teachings.”
Aseefa Zardari also denounced the regretful event stating that
“The intolerance and divisiveness being incited by the PTI to sate [Imran Khan’s] inflated ego is leading Pakistan down a very dark path,”

Muslims worldwide have a deep attachment to Makkah and Madinah, collectively called the Haramayn. The two cities house the holiest mosques of Islam and nothing but worship is allowed https://t.co/vaMR06AT1r
