MWL chief: Saudi Arabia has always called for coexistence between mankind

RIYADH: Saudi Arabia has always called for peace and coexistence between mankind, the Muslim World League’s (MWL) secretary-general said at the 30th International Summit on Religion in Kyoto, Japan.
Mohammed bin Abdul Karim Al-Issa stressed the responsibility of religious leaders to promote civilized and humanitarian concepts to spread the values of love and peace.
Some entities are trying to lay foundations of human society based on materialistic philosophies that deny religion and spiritual values, he warned.
Al-Issa stressed the importance of convening international meetings to ward off a clash of civilizations.
“We, on behalf of the enlightened Muslim peoples, hope that all people will be pleased with the linguistic and religious meaning of Islam, which contains lofty principles and noble values calling for… equality among the human race,” he said.
Al-Issa added that the MWL not only bears the concerns of the Islamic world, but of humanity at large as Islam’s message is global.
