JEDDAH: The Muslim World League (MWL) blamed several groups and individuals for campaigning against Islam, as also for dividing the Muslim community.
Welcoming preachers and scholars from Africa at the 25th Forum of the Committee for Call in Africa, in Makkah, MWL chief Abdullah bin Mohsen Al-Turki said Islamic teachings emphasized the importance of unity and working to help the less fortunate.
“God the Almighty has blessed and honored this Kingdom with this valued religion and law, to serve the two holy mosques, only worship God the Almighty, and open Islamic centers,” he said.
Prince Bandar bin Salman bin Mohammed, chairman of the committee and several other members attended the function.
The MWL secretary general said Saudi Arabia has enjoyed a close relationship with the African continent since the first migration of Muslims to Abyssinia during the lifetime of the Prophet (peace be upon him).
“The African continent and Muslim countries are being targeted by organized campaigns to shun Muslims and keep them away from their religion,” he said.
The MWL chief thanked Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman and the country’s leadership for supporting Muslims across the globe.
