Jamaat-e-Islami Ameer Dr. Shafiqur Rahman has called on people across Bangladesh to attend the funeral of Sharif Osman Hadi, spokesperson of the Inqilab Moncho, setting aside political and ideological differences. Returning from London early on Saturday, Dr. Rahman visited the hospital to view Hadi’s body and later shared his appeal on his verified Facebook page, describing Hadi as a symbol of the nation’s sovereignty.

In his message, Dr. Rahman expressed deep sorrow and prayed for strength for Hadi’s family and the nation. He emphasized that Hadi belonged to no particular party or ideology but represented the collective spirit of Bangladesh. His call for unity resonated with many social media users and political observers, who viewed it as a rare gesture of inclusivity amid a polarized political climate.

The funeral, expected to draw large crowds, may serve as a moment of national reflection. Analysts suggest that such appeals for unity could influence future political discourse, especially as Bangladesh navigates ongoing social and ideological divisions.
