The Pakistan premier said the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques and the Crown Prince gave a clear message to the world of the Muslim Ummah’s unconditional support for the Palestinians by holding an Islamic summit on the situation in Gaza. “Teaching the young generation about our glorious past through documentaries on Islamic history and culture is an important need of the hour to combat Islamophobia.”
PM Kakar said these documentaries on Islamic teachings, history and tradition should be broadcast in different languages to help convey the correct context of Islam to people in every corner of the world.
During the meeting, the prime minister expressed his gratitude to the Saudi leadership for the development of education and health sectors in Pakistan, and for the welfare of Pakistani workforce in Saudi Arabia.
