‘JUI-F worker quits party over differences with Fazlur Rehman’

Mahnoor Bukhari • November 8, 2026 • Pakistan
A worker of Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (F) has reportedly announced his decision to leave the party and end all political and organisational ties with its chief, Maulana Fazlur Rehman.
A video shared on social media shows the worker announcing his resignation after expressing strong disagreement with the party leadership.
His criticism also includes Fazlur Rehman’s recent statements about state institutions.

Why did the worker leave the party?

In his statement, the worker criticised the party leadership for making decisions based on its political interests.
He said that the leadership often finds a way out of difficult situations while ordinary party workers are left to face the consequences.
He also complained that workers have to deal with police cases, court proceedings and other difficulties because of the statements and decisions made by the leadership.
According to the worker, party leaders find political solutions for themselves while ordinary members have to deal with the problems on their own.

What did he say about the party’s performance?

The worker also questioned JUI-F’s performance at the national and public levels. He criticised the results of the party’s political struggle and raised concerns about its leadership and policies.
He made it clear that he no longer wanted any political or organisational association with JUI-F or Maulana Fazlur Rehman.
The incident has drawn attention to growing dissatisfaction among some party workers over the leadership’s policies and political strategy.
However, the video alone does not establish whether the resignation reflects wider opposition within the party.
