Maulana Mamunul Haque, Acting Secretary General of Bangladesh Khilafah Majlis and Central President of Bangladesh Khilafah Youth Majlis, has yet to receive a formal response from the Awami League.
However, the party’s deputy general secretary, AFM Bahauddin Nasim, called the leader’s statement “presumptuous” and said people would respond.
Opposing the installation of a sculpture of the Father of the Bangabandhu Nation Sheikh Mujibur Rahman at Dholaikhal in the capital, Mamunul Haque has demanded the immediate cessation of work.
He said at a function of the metropolis Khelafat Youth Majlis Dhaka at the BMA auditorium in Dhaka on Friday, “Placing a statue of Bangabandhu in Dholaikhal is equivalent to betraying the soul of Bangabandhu. Those who place idols in the name of Bangabandhu’s sculpture cannot be good sons of Bangabandhu. Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman passed away as a Muslim. Making your idol and placing it on the corner of the road will be dishonest to the soul of Bangabandhu. “
He added: “We have seen time and again that attempts are being made to turn this mosque into a city of idols by erasing its glorious identity. The Touhidi people of this country will return to Shapla Chattar.”
Islamic groups have repeatedly opposed the sculpture, calling it “non-Islamic.” A few years ago, a sculpture of the Lady of Justice was also removed from the front of the Supreme Court in response to the demands of Hefazat-e-Islam.
Recalling that, Awami League ally Hassad said in a statement, “Today, this evil force has shown the courage to oppose the installation of the Bangabandhu sculpture only by exposing the religious entrepreneurs by changing the placed sculpture. in front of the Supreme Court “.
Awami League President Hasanul Haque Inu and Secretary General Shirin Akhter have called on the party not to leave those parties.
“We call on the government and people of the country to speak out against this evil force, without further ado, to repress pro-Pakistan religious businessmen, religious political parties, opponents of militant communal fundamentalist sculptors,” said the release.
Hasad says that the position against sculpture is in fact against the history and tradition of Bangladesh and the Bengalis and those who have made this demand want to remove from history the name of Bangabandhu, the architect of independent Bangladesh.

Najibul Bashar Mauzbhandari, president of the Tarikat Federation, partner of the 14-party alliance, also opposes the statement of the leader of the caliphate Mamunur Haque.
He told bdnews24.com: “If you stop the sculpture in the words of Manunul Haque, in a few days it will say that Hindus, Buddhists and other religions will not be able to live in this country.”
The shrine leader said: “There may be sculptures in memory of the Father of the Bangabandhu Nation Sheikh Mujibur Rahman. There are them in many Islamic countries of the world. If there is a sculpture of Bangabandhu here, Iman Amal has nothing to do with it. “
Mufti Masum Billah Nafii, secretary member of the pro-Awami League organization Ulami League, has questioned the knowledge of leader Khilafah Majlis.
He described sculpture and sculpture as separate, saying: “Sculpture is an art that enhances the beauty of the city. And idols are made to worship based on religious beliefs. The sculpture and the idol are not one. Those who call sculpture an idol have a problem of lack of knowledge and vision ”.
At the same time, he said, “if a reflection of obscenity appears in a sculpture, it is certainly considered anti-religious and anti-civilization.”
When asked about the reaction to the caliphate leader’s statement, Awami League deputy general secretary Nasim told bdnews24.com: The people will respond. “
“They have a lot of questions about politics,” he said. The people of Bangladesh have never accepted and will never accept those who want to do politics using religion.
