muhammad rafique, you cant tell me what i should do . theres nothing like behaving like a muslim. i know what i have done. i am not trying to impress the management or any of the members. i did what was right. i am not against anyone . But, protesting against the college was not an option. i dont want you to fight (if you knew about islam you would also know what violence is haram) .
Thanks for helping me understand that you are a girl student .
dear sister it's better not drag my family members here.
firstly I didnt comment on you personally unless you are Naureen. i still wonder how can someone feel instigated with the phrase "justice for scarf and namaz" '
Mr. Narang kotian, we don’t want your sympathy , don’t pull down Pakistan’s politics to us keep quit.
Mr Rafeeq,
You need not to teach me where to raise my voice and where not. I also have the right to hide my identity (just like you have right to wear hijab). By the way, instead of asking me to show the guts, ask the female members of your family. Mind your tongue while arguing with a girl
why commenting with anonymous identify ? have guts to reveal yourself
why are you silent when cheddi goons have been creating ruckus in the name of moral policing?
give your suggestions to morons like pumpwell, etc
Congrats to Naureen. Muslim girls like you are asset of the nation. Don’t hesitate to go and file complaint against those who issue you threats. They are jihadists. People like them had tried to kill Malala too. I am sure that you will face more threats in future from thirbokis. But believe me, the more threats you receive, the more you become stronger.
Jai Hind
CFI has only these 3 members..! in thier protests, always these 3 people. No other people is there for them. Somehow they managed to get few girls this time for the protests.
I wont believe a muslim father will tell against issue if the intention is true. I believe CFI using that girl and politicising the issue.
Appreciate the courage of Naureen, who braved threats and issued a bold statement. All are with you. Don’t worry. Let the misogynists go to hell.
Mr Rafeeq. First you behave like a Muslim by understanding the issue. What’s the meaning of your question? Whats the meaning of asking justice for scarf & namaz? What happened in Agnes is its internal issue. You need not to send your sister or daughter to this college. Stop giving ur bullshit advices to other girls.
CFI supports only unwanted issues.
Was it too bad than your right wing folks have been spreading hatred against muslims?
Sister Naureen, what is wrong in asking justice for scarf & namaz?
First try to learn what Islam is and behave like a Muslim. Rather being a office bearer of a student council and impress upon the management and others .
Admin of the jihadist whatsapp group 'Justice for Scarf and Namaz' must be arrested immediately. This group is responsible for all the confusion. One of my Muslim friends showed me the conversations in the group. It was too bad
Some students were used by the CFI and some by the college. Please allow the students to lead the life as they wish and concentrate on education. Keep communal hatred away from the campus
