According to main points of the code of conduct; it is the duty of all citizens to recognize supremacy of the Constitution and to fulfill their oath of allegiance to the country in all circumstances. Ensure respect for the fundamental rights of all citizens as enshrined in the Constitution, including equality, social and political rights, freedom of expression, belief, worship and assembly. The Islamic structure of the Constitution and laws will be protected. Citizens have the right to peacefully struggle for the implementation of Shariah law in the country.
All forms of coercion, armed action against the state, violence and disorder in the name of enforcing Islam shall be considered sedition and are prohibited by Shariah law and no individual shall have the right to be subjected to the government, military or other security agencies people to declare as disbelievers.
Scholars, clerics and people from all walks of life should fully support to the state and state institutions, especially the law enforcement agencies and security agencies so that violence can be eradicated from the society. Everyone should refrain from being a part of movements based on linguistic, regional, religious and communal prejudices against the state. The state will take strict action against such groups.
No one should promote sectarian hatred, armed sectarian conflict and forcibly impose his ideas on others because this is a clear violation of the Shariah.
