Jamiat Ulema-e-Islami Fazl (JUI-F) Chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman at a press conference in Islamabad asked Pakistani armed forces to launch a military operation against women wearing jeans all over Pakistan.

He remarked that, the immodesty of women is the cause behind earthquakes, inflation and other kinds of disasters.

Maulana Rehman went on to say that if a woman is not covered like a ‘sack of flour’ she is a mobile weapon of mass destruction for her state and that a multitude of such ‘nuclear missiles’ are present in all of Pakistan’s major cities.

These ‘immodest women’ were then blamed for the Baluchistan crisis, lack of energy supply and the deteriorating security situation in Pakistan.

The Maulana suggested that, the Taliban would not be attacking Pakistan if these women were wrapped in sacks and kept inside homes and if the Shariah law was put in place.

He also also talked about the demerits of the operation against the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and said that Taliban were not Pakistan’s enemy and the forces needed to target the real enemies of Pakistan. He added that once Allah stops delivering his wrath via the Taliban, the economy would automatically improve through foreign investment leading to improvement in the energy situation.

Maulana Fazlur Rehman then requested the army chief and the prime minister to openly declare war against these ‘immodest’ Pakistani women and launch a military operation.
