CDF Field Marshal Asim Munir
CDF Field Marshal Asim Munir said that the State of Islam and the State of Pakistan share a deep and historic relationship.
He said that Allah Almighty has bestowed upon Pakistan the honour of being the guardians of the two holy mosques. It is a distinction given to the nation among all Muslim countries.
He cautioned that a nation that abandons knowledge and learning risks chaos and disorder.
“Honour and power are not achieved through division, but through hard work and knowledge,” he said.
On security and counter-terrorism, he asserted that terrorism is not Pakistan’s conduct, but India’s.
He added that in an Islamic state, only the state has the authority to declare jihad.
Reflecting on recent conflicts, he said, “The Marka-e-Haq was won with the help of Allah.”
He also urged scholars to work towards keeping the nation united and fostering progress in the eyes of the public.
