Don’t humiliate women by divorcing them, Maulana Haideri advises Imran

Author: Agencies

Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) secretary-general and deputy chairman Senate Maulana Abdul Ghafoor Haideri on Monday offered an advice to Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan following his third marriage.

“There’s no harm in marrying. But do not humiliate women by divorcing them,” said Maulana Haideri, after PTI confirmed their leader’s marriage to ‘spiritual adviser’ Bushra Maneka. When asked about the PTI chief’s chances of becoming the prime minister of Pakistan, Maulana Haideri said it did not seem likely. “If Imran Khan can’t hold on to his wives, how can he hold the country together?” said the JUI-F leader, reflecting on Imran Khan’s two failed marriages – to Jemima Goldsmith and Reham Khan – in the past.
