Ulama Ka Role - The Role of Religious Scholars

Dr. Israr Ahmad analyzes the role of religious scholars in Pakistan, lamenting its reduction to a profession focused on mosque leadership and employment. He contrasts this with the historical role of scholars as moral guides who actively deterred people from wrongdoing. He emphasizes the Quranic mandate for scholars to promote good, forbid evil, and guide society towards righteousness, highlighting the challenges they face in fulfilling this duty in the current environment, particularly in rural areas where their influence is limited. The ideal role, he asserts, is to actively invite towards goodness, promote virtuous behavior, and discourage vice.
