Pakistan former president and dictator of Pervez Musharraf There was a lot of uproar in the Parliament of Pakistan to pay tribute to. On Monday, differences between the leaders came to the fore in the Senate. Musharraf, 79, died in Dubai on Sunday after a prolonged illness. There is a tradition in the Pakistani Parliament that ‘Fatiha’ is read in the Parliament on the death of a well-known leader or person of the country.
However, when it came to reading Fatiha for Musharraf on Monday, members of the Senate, the upper house of parliament, accused each other of supporting a dictatorial regime that violates the constitution. Leader of the Opposition in the Senate and leader of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Party, Senator Shahnad Wasim, proposed reading Fatiha, which was supported by other members of his party.

However, when Mushtaq Ahmed, a senator from the right-wing Jamaat-e-Islami, was going to jointly read Fatiha for the victims of the Turkiye earthquake, he was asked to read Fatiha for Musharraf as well, but he refused, saying That he would recite Fatiha only for those killed in the earthquake. After his refusal, there was a lot of ruckus among the MPs.
