Muslim World League leadership advocacy for dialogue

Overview

Sheikh Dr Mohammad bin Abdulkarim Al-Issa, Secretary-General of the Muslim World League, has advocated for increased dialogue and religious leadership to promote global peace and social cohesion.

During a visit to Brussels, Al-Issa emphasized that dialogue is essential for resolving conflicts and addressing international instability. He expressed confidence in European stability, noting that national constitutions and societal values serve as safeguards against political shifts and the rise of hardline right-wing parties.

Later, speaking at the G20 Religion Forum in Utah, Al-Issa called for religious leaders to take a larger role in promoting peace, warning that polarization and violence are often fueled by “distorted religious discourse”. He highlighted the Muslim World League’s ‘Building Bridges of Understanding and Cooperation Between East and West’ initiative, which seeks to reduce divisions by grounding efforts in common human values found in the UN Charter.
