In this video, Pakistani Barelvi mullah Khadim Hussain Rizvi speaks on Kulbhushan Jadhav, Maharaja Ranjit Singh's statue at Lahore fort (unveiled last month), destruction of idols at Somnath Temple by Mahmud of Ghazni, and more.
Rizvi-led Tehreek-e-Labbaik held the whole country hostage for three weeks in Nov. 2017 through Faizabad dharna in Islamabad. Several people lost their lives in the unrest.
Rizvi is a staunch follower of Ahmad Raza Khan Barelvi (1856-1921) after whom is named the Barelvi brand of Islam -- indeed the so called 'Sufi Islam' which is glorified in India as paragon of tolerance and syncretism but which in actuality has been the criminal and ethnocidal arm of Islam for centuries.
Ahmad Raza Khan Barelvi was of course 'famous' (and glorified among Muslims) for his intense hatred for the Kafir 'Hindu'. Ayesha Jalal cites Ahmad Raza Khan Barelvi as having said that 'faced with the choice of giving water to a thirsty Kafir and a thirsty dog, the Momin (Muslim) should give it to the dog'.
The following are some excerpts from 'Sufi' Khadim Hussain Rizvi's utterances recorded in the video clip 4:29 minute onwards (Punjabi original followed by translation with my glosses).

Understand Iqbal. Understand the two-nation theory which Iqbal had presented and stop installing statues of Ranjit Singh at the (Lahore) fort.
Who among us is a descendant of Ranjit Singh here who wants to install his statue...?
Not any of us for we are the descendants of Mujaddid-Alf-e-Sani (Renewer of Islam of the second Islamic millennium, the title of Ahmad Sirhindi, a 16th century 'Sufi').
[Ahmad Sirhindi “expressed his pleasure on the assassination of Guru Arjan Dev, the fifth Sikh Guru, regarding it as an admirable step.”
Pakistani historian Mubarak Ali writes that Sirhindi wanted Mughal emperor Jahangir "to adopt a policy to humiliate Hindus" and believed that "the imposition of jizya rightly kept the infidels in a state of subordination".]
Who the hell is this son of Ranjit Singh here who has been installing his statues...? For we are among the descendants of Mahmud of Ghazni who set upon Somnath Temple...
When he was about to destroy the grand idol at Somnath Temple, the Hindus made a proposal to him: 'Don't break our idols. We'll be left with nothing. Ask us anything. What do you want? Gold? Diamonds? Precious stones? Money? Ask us anything you want.
Mahmud of Ghazni made a historical response to that offer. He said, 'You can't stop me from carrying out this task by paying me money because the Prophet whose Kalima I've recited is one who came to destroy idols, not to sell idols'.
----------
So who is this son of Ranjit Singh who is busy installing his statues? Who belongs to Ranjit Singh's race here in Pakistan?
The entire creation of Pakistan was based on the slogan: La ilaha il Allah Muhammadur rasulullah' ('There is no god but Allah, and Muhammad is the messenger of Allah').
If anyone here has any affection for Ranjit Singh, he should go to Amritsar and explore his relationships with them... Not here. This is the country for the slaves of the Muhammad-e-Arabi.
And what does Iqbal say about Ranjit Singh?
(At this point, Khadim Hussain Rizvi cites the legend of Sharf-un-Nisa Begum whom Muhammad Iqbal had supposedly eulogized in a poem. Sharfun-Nisa Begum was a sister of the Subedar of Lahore, Nawab Zakariya Khan, who ruled the city in the reign of the Moghal emperor Muhammad Shah Rangila.
Muslim legend - as related by Rizvi - has it that she was a staunch Muslim who believed that the message of Quran had always been accompanied by the power of sword. So when she died, a copy of Quran and a sword was placed on her sarcophagus, according to her will, and the building sealed from all sides. Muslims believe that Maharaja Ranjit Singh's forces desecrated the building.)
---------
Iqbal says when Ranjit Singh rose to power, they broke into the building and took away the Quran and the sword. Iqbal says that day Musalmans died and so did their Musalmani (Muslimhood) because they failed to protect the stuff placed inside the tomb of their daughter.
And you want his (Ranjit Singh's) statute to be installed (in Lahore)?
Leave aside the Maulvis, you should have consulted Iqbal to understand as to who Ranjit Singh was... the same Ranjit Singh who turned the Badshahi mosque and Sunehri mosque (in Lahore) into horse-stable where horses would urinate and defecate.
