Jamaat-e-Islami lawmaker Mujibur Rahman raised an objection in the Bangladesh Parliament regarding the practice of bowing the head when entering the chamber. Speaking on a point of order during Tuesday’s session, he argued that the gesture, traditionally used by members to show respect, conflicts with Islamic teachings and could be considered an act of shirk. He reminded the House that a previous amendment to parliamentary procedure had removed the requirement for bowing.
Addressing the Speaker, Rahman noted that despite the amendment, some members, including the Speaker and Deputy Speaker, still maintained the habit of bowing. He urged all members to follow the revised rule to avoid religious impropriety and gain spiritual merit. In response, Speaker Hafiz Uddin Ahmed said he would review the procedural rules to confirm whether the change had been formally adopted.
The Speaker added that such gestures are personal choices and common in parliaments worldwide but assured that he would verify the matter based on past parliamentary decisions.
