Views of Mufti Taqi Usmani on Blasphemy case and Islam.
He clarifies that the current blasphemy law is based on the demand of the Jamhoor (people) and not necessarily based in Islam. The Islamic point of view is that it is upto the leadership to determine the punishment for blasphemy as there is no set punishment prescribed for it in Islam.
One interesting point he mentions is that the requirements (of evidence) for proving guilt increase as the punishment becomes severe.
He is a follower of the Hanafi school of jurisprudence which is what both the deobandi and the barelvi sects follow. That includes TLP leadership as well.
He is one of the most senior authorities on hanafi fiqh in Pakistan.
He probably has more than the 40
years of study of Islam that some people so hold dear.
