Okay the way I understand it is thus. We have thousands of franchises being run in Pakistan. All the franchises are of course subject to the franchisor who in effect provides a licence to the franchisee. The product being peddled is religion. Like any business enterprise profit - monetary or power are the motivating factors.
Kemal Ataturk was many things but I don't think he was religious expert either. Food for thought?It's bound to fail
At the end of the day it will come down to two sides in Pakistan, if Mullahs win there will be mass killings of Brelvi and Shia Muslims, minorities and basically anyone who doesn't fit the narrative of narrow minded Mllahs, the other scenario where Mullahs would be hunted down and wiped out is not possible in Pakistan. most Pakistanis listen more to Mullah then what Quran says or what common sense dictates.
Most are private funded and get their funds from Middle Eastern countries and local people and organizations.Who is controlling the mosques? Who is paying the Imam?

this !no Pakistan shouldnt follow Turkish model because Turkey has different set of problems compare to Pakistan and Turkish ethnic background and composition is different in culture and thinking whereas Pakistanis have a different problems ....it means different solutions to different problems...
So it can be "Dont kill Shia's or Dont bomb Sufi Shrines" but nothing on whether they preach against or harass them?
Throughout Islamic history mosques and scholars were always independent and all most all renowned scholars and jurists of islam were known for their fierce independence from political authority. And as such all Islamic sciences flourished and orthodoxy prevailed over heresy and kufr.
What you have in kemalist turkey is clipping of the wings of islamic scholarship. I hope the current situation has improved. The founder of turkey was himself a non-muslim (prominent islamic scholars declared him a kafir) who openly hated islam with a passion. Its amusing that certain pakistanis who call themselves muslims want to mimic the model set up by a kafir. @PaklovesTurkiye @unleashed @RAMPAGE
It was only after the dissolution of the ottoman empire that the rulers of post-colonial muslims states , drenched in ignorance and thoroughly intellectually colonized by western ideas , wanted to control mosques and friday sermons. The secular liberal world order is afraid of complete expression of islam in public life. The west and their secular agents like @Kaptaan want a lobotomized version of islam that is subservient to the secular liberal world order and hence they hate flourishing of Islamic scholarships. They can't stand islamic scholars and imams advocating good and forbidding evil.
Those who want to stifle Islamic scholarship find no problem in spreading false and kufr ideas of evolution , LGBT rights , secularism , individualism etc etc in universities and academic circles. Why should those kufr ideas get a free run in muslims states and Islamic ideas get stifled? If you have a law and order problem do NOT balme islam for that. Blame your goverments who believe in western values mind body and soul and run your states accordingly. @Oscar
SO you want imams to refrain from exposing and refuting heretical ideas and beliefs? In other words you want to ban orthodox normative isalmic beliefs? A imam can't state the islamic principle that reviling the sahabas is disbelief or that grave worship is shirk ?
And how would you define what constitutes harassment? A grave worshipper may find intellectually refuting their beliefs as harassment? SO should imams and scholars NOT enjoy good forbid evil , one of the central tenet of islam?
If you have a law and order problem in your secular country why blame imams and mosques?
When you have people in Government with hardly any knowledge of Islam and not implementing Shariah. If these kind of people will try to take over mosques they would fail and fail badly.
What you have in kemalist turkey is clipping of the wings of islamic scholarship.
