Zakat Ordinance regarding SHIAs

1. Zakat Ordinance regarding SHIAs.

Pakistan came into being on the 14th august 1947 and it is the only state in the world, which came into existence on the ideology of Islam. But unfortunately Islam as the principle law never successfully imposed just because of the resistance of certain forces, which were mostly local. On 20th Jan 1980 the govt. of Gen. Zia-ul-Haque announced the application of zakat and usher ordinance in Pakistan, according to which the zakat will be deducted from the bank accounts of every Pakistani Muslim national. But Shias for the first time in the history started a political blackmailing politics due to the backing of extremist Shia Irani govt. Shias initiated this step for the first time in the history of the sub-continent rather Shias used to play the role of Mir Jaffar and Mir Sadiq and took advantages from rulers. After 1979 Iranian policy makers & strategists selected Pakistan as the prime target for imposition of Shia revolution of the same pattern of Iranian revolution of 1979. The selection of Pakistan was due to the geo-strategic location of Pakistan, presence of extremist Shia population and their resourcefulness and due to its locality in the neighborhood and its loosely guarded border with Iran so Iran distributed a wide network of consulates and cultural centers.
Theses consulates and cultural centers (staffed by the intelligence professionals of Iranian intelligence agencies) in every major city of Pakistan controlled, directed, organized and supported the Shia community by establishing a sophisticated and most organized network. The staff of these consulate & cultural centers controlled this sophisticated network worked through mosques was most effective at grass root level. This network provided shia extremist with weapons, money and clandestine training through diplomatic channel. The training was provided to zaireen going to Iran during their stay in Iran.

When on 20th Jan 1980, Zia announced the zakat and usher ordinance, Irani intelligence organized the demonstrations and bombed the govt. letters enforcing to restrict zakat ordinance from imposition and later to show the street power and blackmailing politics shias organized the convention on 4 & 5 of July 1980 under the chairmanship of Mufti Jaffar Hussain on 5th July these shias sieged the Sectriate building. This siege of made the whole govt. machinery out of order. This siege was accompanied by a wave of terror & destruction and above the all it was a clear message to govt. that govt. has to bow and the shias has ability to knock down the govt. machinery. During this event shias used their street power in a very disciplinary way as taught by the Iranians, which is happening even today. So eventually govt. bowed against and organized wave of terror arranged by Iranian backing.
