Imran Khan visited Baba Farid’s shrine with wife Bushra Maneka last night
Pakpattan (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News – 28th June, 2018) Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan paid a visit to Baba Farid Gunj Shakar’s shrine in Pakpattan with his wife Bushra Maneka last night.
The PTI chairman reached Pakpattan last night and visited Baba Farid’s shrine.
The video of his visit to the shrine has gone viral on social media. While some people appreciated Khan’s reverence for the Sufi saints, others criticized him.
In the video, the PTI chairman is seen prostrating before entering the shrine.
The critics said that this shows how far Khan can go to get premiership of the country since he earlier married his spiritual leader Bushra Maneka. Despite being a candidate for premiership of the country, Khan is blindly following the Pirs.
Some people however said that Khan did not prostate rather kissed the stairs of the shrine out of respect.
Watch here:
The PTI chairman reached Pakpattan last night with his wife and visited Baba Farid’s shrine.
He laid a sheet on the shrine and offered Fateha. Bushra Bibi laid floral wreath in front of the ‘Bahishti Darwaza’ while Imran Khan distributed relics in the shrine.
PTI’s candidate for provincial assembly constituency PP-192 Deewan Azmat also accompanied Khan on the occasion.
Successor of the shrine Deewan Ahmad Masood Chishti tied turban on Imran Khan’s head. The two held a one-on-one meeting in the shrine. Following this, the PTI chairman left from there.
Imran Khan’s third wife Bushra Maneka is a spiritual woman. Khan earlier went to perform Umrah with his wife. While some criticize Khan’s marriage with his spiritual leader, others praise him for the act.
