According to reports, Islamic scholar of high repute Mufti Tariq Masood has reportedly denied media rumors saying an armed attack has been carried out on him. Mufti Tariq Masood has said on X (formerly Twitter) that no such incident occurred. According to earlier media speculations, Mufti Masood has received serious injuries with his driver killed in an armed attack near Ghaghar Phatak Karachi.
News spread rapidly through social media but Mufti Masood himself responded to the rumors. He said all was good and safe. In his message, he expressed shock over the nonsensical reports and claimed that nothing had happened.
Jamia Tur Rasheed, which Mufti Masood is also a part of, had already released a statement denying the incident, wherein Maulana Mohammad Nadeem claimed that news about the incident was fake and baseless.
Mufti Tariq Masood, while very much followed on social media platforms due to his high religious scholarship, brought relief to his worried supporters under prayer since the unverified claims were released. He, of course, serves the lesson of acquiring knowledge before posting online about them.
