National Women Development Policy

No provision incorporated that goes against Quran, Sunnah

Law adviser tells religious leaders

UNB, Chittagong
Law Adviser AF Hassan Ariff yesterday said the interim government has not incorporated any provision in the law of inheritance that might go against Quran and Sunnah.
“The government hasn't incorporated any controversial section in the present inheritance law that may contradict Quran and Sunnah. Nor even it has any plan to do so," he said.
The law adviser was addressing a meeting with local Alem, Ulemas (religious leaders) and Islamic scholars at Jamiatul Falah Mosque in the port city in the morning.
He alleged that a vested quarter is out to create instability in the country by presenting the National Women Development Policy (NWDP) in a distorted manner.
"The holy Quran has ensured that women have been shown due respects. And the government through the National Women Development Policy has given preference to the lessons of Quran regarding wooushk" HassanAriffsaid.
He assured the religious leaders that there would be no scope
to enact any law that can undermine the holy Quran as long as he is in law ministry as its adviser.
The programme was addressed by former city mayor Mahmudul Islam Chowdhury, Islamic intellectual Maulana Jalaluddin and other Islamic scholars.
However, shortly after the law adviser’s meeting with the Islamic religious leaders, leaders of Quranic Law Protection Association at a press conference at Chittagong Press Club rejected Hassan Ariff’s observations.
They said the government has already taken a stand against the spirit of Quran through bringing an amendment to the law of inheritance that was mentioned in the recently announced National Women Development Policy," said Mufti Ezharul Islam Chowdhury, president of Islamic Oikya Jote (central), an ally of the previous Four Party Alliance.
The association leaders demanded the chief adviser withdraw the controversial part related to the inheritance law within a week that he announced on, Saturday pp thq occasion of Internationa"! Women’s Day.
They also threatened to launch a tough programme if their
demand was not met within the given time.
As part of the protest programmes, the association leaders also announced to hold rallies across the country after Juma prayers today.
