Prominent Qawmi scholar Mufti Abdur Rahman Rahmani has joined Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami. The joining took place on Saturday afternoon at the party’s Dhaka Metropolitan South office, where he filled out the associate membership form. He was welcomed by Abdus Sabur Fakir, a member of Jamaat’s central Majlish-e-Shura and Naib-e-Ameer of Dhaka Metropolitan South. Other senior leaders, including Advocate Dr. Helal Uddin, Maulana Mosharraf Hossain, and Mufti Nuruzzaman Nomani, were also present.

Rahmani stated that he had not previously been affiliated with any organization but had long been seeking one dedicated to establishing Islamic principles. He said he found Jamaat-e-Islami to embody the spirit of mutual care described in Hadith, unlike many Qawmi-based groups he viewed as lacking structure. He emphasized that Jamaat offered broader opportunities for social and religious work and urged his students and well-wishers to join for the sake of divine satisfaction.

Jamaat leaders described the party as a humanitarian organization committed to social reform and service, rejecting what they called false propaganda against it.
