Recently, Iffat Omar appeared in Aik Naya Zaviya podcast, hosted by Haroon Rafiq. In the podcast Iffat Omar said that she wants a secular Pakistan where no body is answerable about his/her beliefs and practices.
Talking about it, Iffat Omar said, “I want a secular Pakistan. Again, it is my thought process. I think Quaid-e-Azam also wanted a secular Pakistan; he should have wanted a secular state, because the kind of thoughts he possessed and the kind of life he led, he should have wanted a secular state; if not, then it would be considered a hypocrisy. Religion is a private thing. We all believe in Allah, but who is practicing and who is not should not be people’s matter. I am answerable to Allah for my deeds; Namaz, recitation of the Quran, and other worships should be a private matter”. Here is the link to the video:
