Muslim Council of Elders Welcomes Ceasefire Agreement Between India and Pakistan
The Muslim Council of Elders, under the chairmanship of His Eminence Professor Dr. Ahmed Al-Tayeb, Grand Imam of Al-Azhar, welcomes the announcement of a ceasefire agreement between the Republic of India and the Islamic Republic of Pakistan. The Council hopes that this step will contribute to enhancing security and stability in South Asia and across the world.
The Council calls on both parties to uphold the terms of the agreement, to heed the voice of reason, and to act with wisdom by prioritizing dialogue and mutual understanding. Such an approach will help avert further tensions in the region and foster the values of coexistence, ultimately fulfilling the aspirations of the two neighboring peoples for peace, stability, and prosperity.
The Muslim Council of Elders expresses its appreciation for all efforts aimed at ending wars and conflicts, and prays for peace to prevail across the globe so that humanity may enjoy goodness, prosperity, security, and stability.
It is worth noting that the Muslim Council of Elders had previously called on both the Indian and Pakistani sides to exercise restraint, de-escalate tensions, and avoid descending into the abyss of war that would endanger the security and stability of their nations, their peoples, and the world.
