PEMRA bans Hamza Ali Abbasi from hosting Ramazan transmission

[Strike Rate]

The Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (Pemra) has imposed a ban on the Ramazan transmission of two private TV channels over violation of the media regulator’s code of conduct by “promoting controversial and sectarian views”.

“An immediate ban has been imposed on TV One’s programme Isq-e-Ramazan (hosted by Shabbir Abu Talib) and Aaj News programme Ramazan Hamara Iman (hosted by Hamza Ali Abbasi),” a statement said on Friday.

The media regulator directed both TV channels to immediately stop airing the said programmes, failing of which will end up in the removal of their transmissions on cable.

It all began with actor and social activist Hamza Ali Abbasi questioning the oppression of Ahmadis during one of his programmes on Aaj TV.

“The community is being suppressed but if you talk about it, people say ‘You’re from that community that’s why you’re saying this,’” said Hamza. “I am not an Ahmadi, I am a Sunni Muslim.”

This triggered a harsh response from a religious cleric who allegedly threatened Hamza of ‘dire consequences’ in another TV show on TV One.

Soon after the notification was issued, the actor took to social media and said: “There is a divine pleasure in suffering in the way of Allah (SWT) and his beloved Prophet & Messenger Muhammad (SAW).”

Shocking and disappointing someone calling a spade a spade gets banned. However the fact is in Pakistan ppl do not have the stomach to hear an opinion which they do not agree with and resort to violent threats. I long for a day where Pakistanis could respect opinions of others and move ahead.

Oh so that is why I didn't see Shabbir Abu Talib on TV last night. I used to watch it while doing Sehri and enjoyed the naats of Owais Qadri and the segment called "nukhtae ishq".

I dont know much about the show on Aaj TV though.

 

[Mamoon]

Hamza Abbasi is a blithering idiot and a hypocrite of the highest order, but credit where it is due. It takes some serious guts and nerves to talk about such a sensitive issue on live tv.

Unfortunately, the reaction is not surprising. Pakistan is a despicable country where there is no concept of freedom of speech.

People in this country do not want to hear certain things and do not like being shown the mirror. When you do, this is the result.

Then people wonder why this country doesn't make any progress.

Most people are illiterate let alone uneducated. Most people struggle to put two meals on the table for their family. No clean water, no power and people wonder why people of Pakistan are not tolerant. It's easy for you and me with good education and grooming to ask these questions butt just for the think how much those poor Pepe have to fight for basic necessities of life day in and day out.. How would they develop tolerannce? when you have chidren dying of hunger a few foot away politicians are enjoying their 80 dish buffet.. Tolerance would be last thing on People's mind. someone called this nation "despicable".. It's easy to sit behind the computer and call people names but most of us can't even imagine what people go through, things they have to bear daily..

I do not get the correlation of someone being hungry and having a lack of tolerance. What do Ahmedis have to do with the people being unable to put 2 meals a day? There is no justification for this. The main issue is the religious clerics who instigate such hatred. I really do not get the concept of hatred towards any sect of people regardless of the trouble someone is facing. And tolerance is developed against those who are working against you with some agenda. Since when have Ahmedis been working with an agenda against anyone? Ahmedi's since inception of Pakistan have been targeted and it is unfair and against the principles of Jinnah ka Pakistan.

 

[dayvancowboy]

When there are London masjids that openly call for the murder of Ahmadis in pamphlets, it's pretty comical to blame hunger when the real culprit is religious intolerance from a religious group that demands respect but never extends it to others.

That's the sad part, there is no middle ground, you are either a mullah or a kafir in this country. He was always mocked as mullah and hypocrite by liberals and now he is a famous kafir for millions. I don't agree with everything what Hamza says but he is extremely patriotic and his views are quite balanced on most topics. He doesn't mince his words against most politicians and doesn't try to be diplomatic just to win some fans. It's ironic how all the people calling him Mullah and hypocrite are now running campaigns to support him

All your points in this post I agree with, surprising I know.

As for the bold bit, you're welcome to move out of the country. I am sure Pakistan needs people who still love it despite its faults. The ones with hatred for their own country would hardly be catalysts for change.

Similarly, I have no issues with you taking offense over my criticism of Pakistan. Just Don't tell me what to do, I'm happy where I am.

All I have to say in response is please grow a thicker skin, because your get your jimmies rustled quite easily. Learn to accept difference of opinion, painting things you do not want to hear as 'attention-seeking' is not the way to go.

[Abdul]

An Islamic Republic is the name given to countries that are ruled by Islamic Laws. Purpose of Muhammad Ali Jinnah to create "Pakistan" was to separate Muslims from other religions so we can have our own country that can be run by Islamic Laws, making it easier for us to practice our religion without any restrictions. However, in our country, we do allow non-Muslims to live peacefully.

Now, when it comes to Ahmadis, Hamza - the actor, should do his research before he questions a Fatwa that was issued years ago, especially on such issues. He should at least know that it wasn't government's decision, but that the Majlis al-Ummah in Pakistan (the central parliament) debated with the Qadiani leader Mirza Naasir Ahmad, and he was refuted by Shaykh Mufti Mahmood. The debate went on for nearly thirty hours but Naasir Ahmad was unable to give answers and the Kufr of this group was exposed, so the Majlis issued a statement that the Qadianis should be regarded as a non-Muslim minority

Among the factors that make Mirza Ghulam Ahmad an obvious Kaafir are the following:

1. His claim to be a Prophet.
2. His saying that people should no longer go on Hajj to Makkah, and his substitution of Qadian as the place of pilgrimage.
3. His anthropomorphism or likening Allaah to human beings.
4. His belief in the transmigration of souls and incarnation.
5. His attributing a son to Allaah and his claim to be the son of God.
6. His denying that Prophethood ended with Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) and his regarding the door of Prophethood to be open to “any Tom, Dick or Harry”.

And many more that I cannot mention here.

No one has the right to judge someone, but Alhamdulillah, everyone has a piece of brain to understand what's right and what's wrong and what's haram and what's forbidden — unless of course I am too lazy to do my research for Islamic purposes, but do have time for duniyawi purposes.

May Allah give us hidayat. Ameen.

For someone who can write eloquently if you spent half the time in proper debates instead of seeking attention then it'd be good.

You don't start the conversation by pointing out if state should define people's religion. He does not go through the history of Islam I guess, that's what exactly they have being doing for 1400 years...

Religion is a miss placed political philosophy in modern world. You have to do something fundamentally against religion to make progress such as separation of church and state, women empowerment, freedom of speech, education in masses all of them of poison of institution and culture of religion... You don't ask the question to the religious guys how to get rid of it [emoji33][emoji33][emoji33]

Pakistan will struggle with religion for another generation. Muslims are going through what Christians went few 100 years ago, result of that was not good for religion but was better for society. Next generations of Muslims will think different about religion as they become part of global communities.

You have to talk about Ahmedis since this issue is mainly pertaining to them. Tolerance may well be directly related to problems of society but this frustration to be released on minorities is not something I am willing to accept. I believe as a group of people we can be better than that. Our mullahs need to be better than that.

You obviously are missing a big point here, the religion Islam is a perfect religion selected by Allah SWT. The challenge is how to live in accordance with Sunna and Quran. Many people just selects what suits them and leaves the other.
Parents are big example of that, once a child say something wrong to them they will jump the gun and tell you that Quran says, among others, "don't even say uff to your parents", that is completely fine, but they ignore everything else that the daughters/sons also have certain rights.

Same goes with other people in the society, the double standard is a big problem in my opinion.

My understanding is that due to the influx of fundamental Islam by Zia in the 70s Pak has suffered for the last 46 years.....when you say another generation is that a figuratively or do you really feel that you are seeing a change today that will complete in the next 20-25 years.....

This is just an empty statement and a big one without any evidence or debate, that's where big problem lies with 1.7B muslims, nobody can question Quran or Mohammad, well then what's the point??

As a matter of fact, nothing can ever be consider as permanent or absolute law/principle. Emotional attachment to ideas is a bad practice, this leads to fanatics and extremist culture. This we see a lot in Faith based cultures(race, religion, patriotism etc)...

Question is, Do you want to build society of intellectuals or soldiers? - When Quran came, the later was true, not just Arabs everybody has same ideology or social culture. Now former is true, to build strong and rich society, you need free thinking culture not obedience, you need conservation and debate about ideas not submission to old literature... There are only so many soldiers you need...

BTW: We had endless discussion on what's wrong with old Literature like Quran and why its bad idea to build your entire society on such idols...You can go through those discussions on the same forum... I don't have to spell it out once again here...

ISLAMABAD: The electronic media regulator has advised television channels to observe decency in their non-news content.

In an advice issued to all TV channels, the Pakistan Ele*ctronic Media Regu*la*tory Authority (Pemra) on Tuesday asked them not to air dramas containing controversial themes, indecent clo*thing and gestures, controversial plots (involving infidelity and extramarital affairs, etc) and unnecessary details of events.

“Such content is not only distressing for viewers but is also against the commonly accepted standards of decency,” the Pemra advice said.

The regulator said the trend of airing quite bold themes in dramas had resulted in massive public complaints on the Pakistan Citizen Portal (PCP), Pemra Complaints Call Centre and Feedback System as well as on social media.

The Pemra statement said that viewers had severely criticised the content being telecast, and their opinion was that dramas were not depicting the true picture of Pakistani society.

“Indecent scenes, dialogues, extramarital relations, violence, inappropriate dressing, rape scenes, bed scenes, use of drugs and alcohol, and intimate moments between couples are being glamorised in utter disregard of Pakistani culture and values,” Pemra said.
