Amid Rising Global Conflicts And Economic Disparity, Urgent Need For Unity Among Ummah – Sultan Nazrin

IPOH, Amid rising global conflicts and economic disparity, there is an urgent need for unity within the ummah, said the Sultan of Perak, Sultan Nazrin Shah. He said that since October 2022, two major conflicts affecting Muslim-majority populations have broken out - the Sudanese civil war and the conflict in Gaza. “The war in Ukraine, which began in early 2022, has continued into a third year, inflicting significant and prolonged hardship on the country’s citizens. “Across these global conflicts, innocent civilians of many faiths - Muslim and non-Muslim - including thousands of women and children, are bearing the brunt of the suffering: killed, wounded, forced out of their homes, and, in many cases, now facing intensifying food shortages,” Sultan Nazrin said in his address at the 7th World Conference on Islamic Thought and Civilisation (WCIT) 2024: “Together We Stand: Muslims and Global Humanity” here today. Also present were Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahm ad Zahid Hamidi and Perak Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Saarani Mohamad. Source: BERNAMA News Agency
