Bishop Bola threatened to withdraw from the Constituent Assembly for the second time in opposition to the way the Preamble was drafted. The Constituent Assembly, on the other hand, decided to form a new committee to reformulate the Preamble. Bola stated that he was surprised to find that the reference to the civil state was removed and that the “principles of sharī’ah” was inserted in the Preamble without being involved (Author not mentioned, al-Shurūq, Nov. 25, p. 1).
