TRIPOLI, November 25 (Mercy for Mankind) - Attorney Ibrahiem
El-Ghowail stressed that the organizers of the seventh general
conference of the World Islamic Call Society have no intention of
apologizing to anybody.
According to world-renowned Ghowail, the Muslim Ummah (Nation) was
sent to stand witness on people and to bring mercy to all creatures.
The ongoing confusion was between Islam and the current status of
Muslims, who were forced to resist the assaults they were subjected
to.
"A person on the defense is always coming up with reactions, rather
than optimum moves.
"Those who follow the conferences organized by the WICS realize that
we have projected a concept of mercy and peace from the very first
moment the society came to being," said Ghwail who is presenting a
paper to the conference entitled "Last Divine Message…Containing
Past, Reading Future".
"Ever since the first conference, we have been presenting Islam that
came to represent survival, as opposed to annihilation. We have
raised the necessity of abundant and just prosperity, to replace
poverty.
"We spoke of coexistence, as opposed to subjugation and humiliation.
We spoke of a media that propagates truth, as opposed to ignorance."
The seventh general conference of the World Islamic Call Society
takes place Friday, November 26, till Monday, November 29, with the
participation of about 500 figures from across the Muslim world,
representing some 250 Islamic institutions and organizations.
Ghowail went on to say that the society sent out a message of mercy
to all people. Muslims were also included, in order to get
acquainted with the nature of their religion and elements of their
message.
As to mercy and universality, which was the motto that the seventh
conference of the society adopted (Mercy for Mankind), Ghowail
indicated the Noble Qur'an directs Muslims to heed what went on in
the world, even if they thought was taking place far from them.
"The Prophet (PBUH), at one time, studied the geopolitical
conditions surrounding him and asked his followers to move to
Abyssinia, where there was a just king," Ghowail said. |
