Jhang: Following the adoption of the resolution in the United Nations calling for the declaration of March 15 as the “International Day to Combat Islamophobia,” Muslim Institute organized a human model of thousands of people stating “UN Thank You” at the shrine of Hazrat Sultan Bahoo, Jhang to show gratitude to the UN on this historical feat. Flags of 57 Muslim Countries were prominently arranged around the logo of the United Nation.
Participants of the human model wore white dresses and loudly chanted “Thank You United Nations” and “Islam is Peace”.
This historical event was organized by Chairman Muslim Institue Sahibzada Sultan Ahmed Ali.
Speaking at the occasion, he said that in the modern era Islamophobia erupted as fistula which could dangerously impact internationally.
“We, the people of Pakistan, thank the United Nations to recognize the rising trend of Islamophobia and declaring March 15 as the International Day to Combat Islamophobia and hate against Islam,” the chairmen added.
Chairman Sultan further said that the OIC countries might also adopt a treaty or convention on combating hate against Islam. Later on, he believed, that non-Muslim states could be encouraged to ratify the treaty. It would play an active role in binding the member states to strive for discouraging the trends of hate against Islam.
Thanking the UN for accepting the resolution against Islamophobia, he said that the acceptance of the resolution against Islamophobia is a historical act for which we cordially thank United Nations. Pakistan along with OIC and all Islamic countries deserve tribute who participated in the acceptance of this resolution.
