Hafiz Saeed leads Eid prayers in Lahore

Addressing a large gathering at the Gaddafi Stadium, the Lashkar-e-Taiba founder called for unity among Muslim community “to fail the design of infidels”.

He said international players are conspiring against Pakistan’s nuclear programme.“The United States and India are signing agreements against Pakistan and there has been a preparation of a big war”, he said, alleging “drones are parked at Indian airports and our rulers are engaged in a fight with opposition.” 

Saeed, on whose head the US has put a bounty of USD 10 million, termed Pakistan and Saudi Arabia’s growing distance with the US as a “blessing in disguise”.

“It is a blessing in disguise that Pakistan and Saudi Arabia are getting distanced from America. This will lay foundation of the Islamic Union which is the need of the hour for the Islamic world,” he said.
