PESHAWAR: Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam Fazal (JUI-F) chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman on Thursday condemned the terrorist attack on the Peshawar school and said his party does not consider it as jihad, DawnNews reported.
"We do not consider atrocities like the Peshawar attack as part of jihad," he said.
Speaking to the media in Peshawar, the JUI-F leader said that "when a patient does not get well through medicine, then the only option left is an operation".
"The terrorists themselves have shut the doors for negotiation," he said.
Maulana Fazlur Rehman said that the atrocity in Peshawar was a blot on the name of Islam and an attempt to deface it.
When replying to a question, he said that Pakistan and Afghanistan should form a joint strategy to fight and defeat terrorism.
The JUI-F leader also said that the death penalty was the law of the land and was not being reinstated only due to the Peshawar attack.
