Syed Sarwar Chishty, Khadim Gaddi Nasheen of Shrine of Hazrat Khwaja Gharib Nawaz
Moeen Uddin Chishty Ajmeri (R.A.), who is visiting Pakistan these days, called on
Dr Raheeq Abbasi, Secretary General of Minhaj-ul-Quran International in Lahore today.
Sahibzada Faiz-ur-Rehman Durrani, Khalil-ur-Rehman Chishty, Raja Jamil Ajmal, G.M.
Malik, Syed Altaf Hussain Gillani, and Dr Obaidullah Ranjha were also present on
the occasion.
Speaking on the occasion, Syed Sarwar Chishty said that interfaith dialogue was
the practice of the Sufis. Khawaja Ghareeb Nawaz went to India to spread the light
of Islam. He said that these were the conservatives who opposed the idea of engagement
and dialogue among civilizations and religions. He said that MQI had played historic
role for promotion of interfaith harmony in the world. He said that Dr Muhammad
Tahir-ul-Qadri had presented the case of Islam in the foreign world in accordance
with the demands of the modern time. His multi-dimensional services are beacon of
light for all of us, he added.
Syed Sarwar Chishty said that the Wembley Conference held under the banner of
MQI was the need of the hour and the people having bigoted mindsets must not object
to it. He said that MQI has put up a shield against the forces of militancy and
terrorism by promoting the real teachings of Sufis. The religious edict against
terrorism was a historic document, which had cleared many misconceptions about Islam
found in the world. He said that the peaceful forces needed to be aligned against
terrorism and extremism.
Syed Sarwar Chishty also visited various departments of MQI.
