He was descended from the Sadwani clan of the Mazari tribe in the town of Rojhan in Rajanpur , the border district of Punjab province of Pakistan .1Abdul Rashid Ghazi was killed in the Siege of Lal Masjid after Pakistan Army troops stormed the mosque and madrassah he and his students had been using to teach Islam. He is buried at Madrassah Abdullah, Basti Abdullah near Rojhan Mazari in central Pakistan . Abdul Rashid Ghazi wanted to implement an Islamic system in Pakistan. His followers tried to stop adultery in Islamabad through negotiations and soft talks with superiors of centers of prostitution but at a number of times they faced very negative and hard reaction. Law-enforcing agencies also didn't cooperate with them. Also, there was a big issue of destruction of seven mosques in Islamabad in 2006-2007. Molana Abdul Aziz and Abdul Rasheed Ghazi were requesting administration of Islambad again and again to stop the destruction of mosques in the city but they failed to reach any agreement with them.
