A PTA official explained that the website was blocked &lsquo;because Ahmadis &#8230; [a]re not allowed to propagate their religious views under the constitution of Pakistan&rsquo;. The move came after the Muttahida Ulema Board (United Board of Islamic Clerics) accused the website of containing blasphemy against the Prophet Muhammad. Husain Haqqani, the former Pakistani Ambassador to the United States, commented that the move &lsquo;reflects religious intolerance and violates the constitutional guarantee of religious freedom&rsquo;&rdquo;.<\/p>\n<p>A fatwa is currently in place which calls for non-Ahmadi Muslim converts to Ahmadiyya to be killed within three days of their conversion. One Ahmadi convert was killed by a retired police officer in March 2007, who justified the killing on the grounds of Islamic law.<\/p>\n<div class=\"benefits\">\n<div class=\"item last\">\n<hr \/>\n<div class=\"shaded\">\n<h2 class=\"title book-title\">Have you read our book?<\/h2>\n<p><a data-target=\"#bookModal\" data-toggle=\"modal\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.britishpakistanichristians.org\/images\/the-targeting-of-minority-others-in-pakistan.jpg\" class=\"img-responsive\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"intro\">The Targeting of &lsquo;Minority Others&rsquo; in Pakistan?<\/p>\n<p class=\"desc\">The Targeting of &lsquo;Minority Others&rsquo; in Pakistan is a thought provoking and path-breaking book that has been published by the British Pakistani Christian Association.
