[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] The Islamic World League will hold a conference on "Civilizational Communication between the United States of America and the Islamic World" on Saturday, September 16th, 2017 in New York City, USA.
Representatives of Islamic institutions from all over the world and their American counterparts along scientific, intellectual from all over the world are set to take part.
The conference, which will last for two days, will focus on a number of themes naming: "The Cultural Contribution between the United States of America and the Islamic World: The Reality and the Aspirations", "Islam’s Contribution to the Promotion of World Peace", "Moslems in the United States of America: Integration and Citizenship", "The intellectual trends in employing religious freedoms", "Communication between the United States of America and the Islamic world", "Common civilizational and humanistic traits" and " Mutual exchange between the United States and the Islamic world" including many other topics.
A distinguished group of academics and researchers from all around the world will participate in the conference. There will also be mutual dialogue sessions between a number of Moslem and American students.
The Secretary General of the Moslem World League Dr. Mohammed bin Abdul Karim al-Issa explained that the league aims at highlighting the Islamic civilization and its pioneering historical experience in opening up to other civilizations, which emphasizes the concepts of cultural exchange, and consolidate the idea of human brotherhood based on righteousness, justice, charity and companionship, as well as reviewing evidence from Islamic history about coexistence with the people of the world.
Especially, since the United States of America has a distinguished record of trustful, honest and lucrative relationships with the Moslem World. He added that religious and intellectual extremism is an abnormal and isolated case that the Islamic world fought so it does not spread and cause harm to others.
Efforts to combat terrorism
The conference will emphasize as well that extremism is present in a small percentage within the Islamic world. According to the latest estimates, one in two hundred thousand people are identified as bad boys. This low percentage is due to both intellectual and military campaigns and efforts.
| It is claimed there are a billion Muslims worldwide. That would mean there are 5,000 Muslim extremists. But according to the EU counter-terror chief, there are 50,000 radical Islamists in the EU today, so perhaps the latest estimates are a tad optimistic. |
The Secretary General of the Moslem World League said that in order for extremism to regain its strength and attract new elements, it will bet on provocations of counter-extremism and "Islamophobia
...the irrational fear that Moslems will act the way they usually do...
", indicating that extremism is a general and comprehensive concept that is not limited to Islam.
He emphasized that the contemporary and ancient history is a living proof of the tolerance of Islam.
The Secretary General underlined that the Kingdom of Soddy Arabia
...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face...
was strongly present in the global peace initiatives, supported them at all levels and initiated a serious and effective effort to combat extremism and terrorism intellectually and militarily which made Saudi Arabia a global platform in this sense.
American President Donald Trump
...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States...
and a number of American politicians, intellectuals and media outlets attended the opening of the Global Center for Combating Extremist Ideology in Riyadh.
The Islamic Summit was an exceptional historic summit which brought together the two countries under the slogan "Together, we prevail" which took place last May.
