Author Taslima Nasreen, in opposition to whom a number of fatwas (demise sentences) have been issued up to now for her anti-Islamic remarks, on Wednesday claimed {that a} spiritual chief, Allama Khadim Hussain Rizvi, wished to kill her and impressed Pakistani extremists to kill her within the identify of Islam.
Taslima Nasreen took to Twitter and shared a video of the spiritual chief. She wrote, “This religious leader wanted to kill me and he inspired millions of Pakistani extremists to kill me in the name of Islam. He claimed he read my book, but of course, he didn’t. He lied.”
This spiritual chief wished to kill me and he impressed thousands and thousands of Pakistani extremists to kill me within the identify of Islam. He claimed he learn my guide, however in fact, he did not. He lied. https://t.co/7aH93QINXW

Last week, Taslima stated that she is also killed after writer Salman Rushdie was stabbed on Friday as he was about to ship a lecture at western New York’s Chautauqua institute.
Speaking completely to India Today, Nasreen stated, “It is not that Fatwa was issued against me a long time ago and now they have forgotten it. They will never forget. They will kill me if they get any chance.”
Taslima is understood for her writings on the oppression of girls and criticism of faith. Several of her works are banned in Bangladesh, the nation of her origin. She has been residing in exile since 1994. After residing for greater than 10 years in Europe and the US, she moved to India in 2004.
