 Tehreek-e-Labaik Pakistan (TLP) chief Khadim Hussain Rizvi Passed away.

 

Family sources said that Khadim Hussain Rizvi had been suffering from fever for the past few days.

Allama Khadim Hussain Rizvi was born on June 22, 1966 in Naka Tut. He belonged to Attock district of Punjab.

Khadim Hussain Rizvi studied from madrassas in Jhelum and Dina.Khadim Hussain Rizvi completed his Dars Nizami from Jamia Nizamia Rizvia Lahore.

Apart from memorizing the Qur'an, he was also a Shaykh-ul-Hadeeth and was fluent in Persian. Khadim Hussain was paralyzed in a traffic accident and cannot walk without support.

Until a few years ago, little was known about Khadim Hussain Rizvi, the founder of the religious and political party Tehreek-e-Libek. Then in November 2017, he led a rally and staged a sit-in at Faizabad, the confluence of Rawalpindi and Islamabad. Three years later, in November 2020, his party workers staged another sit-in.

The 52-year-old Khatib of a Lahore mosque gained real fame in November 2017 by staging a long but seemingly successful sit-in in Islamabad's Faizabad Chowk against an amendment to the blasphemy law. Earlier, he was also active in the case of the execution of Mumtaz Qadri, the assassin of Punjab Governor Salman Taseer, and from there he turned his religious activities into politics.

Khadim Hussain Rizvi, a Barelvi thinker, was fired from the Punjab Auqaf Department for speaking out in favor of Mumtaz Qadri, after which he founded the movement in September 2017 and NA-120 Lahore in September of the same year. He surprised everyone by getting 7,000 votes in the by-elections.

Some of his videos went viral on social media simply because people can only laugh at the kind of debt relief he offers to the country. He has also been harshly addressing journalists and intelligence officials who have come to his gathering. Then there are claims that it may be impossible to put into practice. He had made a similar statement in Karachi that if he had an atomic bomb, he would have completely destroyed the Netherlands before holding a cartoon competition.
