Finally, under pressure, Pakistan is contemplating to regulate their weekly sermons in the mosques. It is definitely a step in the right direction. The article states that the topics of discussion will be chosen by some governmental authority, but it does not go into detail what the Mullah is supposed to say or interpret about those selected topics. Would the interpretation or explanation of those topics be an approved and written statement which Mullah is supposed to read or is it going to be left on his own interpretation which could be questionable. Also, simply selecting topics of discussion is not enough to stop the radicalization of youngsters in the Friday prayer, it needs to be monitored by the presence of a governmental authority, and if possible, recording all the sermon ceremony of each Friday. The idea is to tighten the screws to avoid radicalization of people. Also, there needs to be a severe penalty declared if any mullah violates these guidelines. In addition, Pakistan has to show to the world that any open jihadi propaganda will not be acceptable on its soil.
