Sheikh Dr. Mohammed Al-Issa, Secretary-General of the Muslim World League (MWL), has highlighted that Muslims have upheld high values of civilization through their conduct.

Speaking at Dar es Salaam’s largest mosque, where he led the Friday prayers, Al-Issa began his visit to Tanzania, part of a wider African tour for League activities. In his sermon, he emphasized mercy, forgiveness, and tolerance in Islam.

He noted that Islamic teachings combine idealism with realism, promoting kindness to all people, regardless of differences.

Al-Issa referenced the Prophet Muhammad’s definition of kindness as “good character,” a principle that remains constant across different backgrounds.

He also discussed the “upright behavior” encouraged by the Quran and the Prophet’s teachings, which guide Muslims in sharing the message of Islam and interacting wisely with others.

Al-Issa ended his sermon with a prayer for the oppressed in Gaza and all those facing hardship globally, asking for God’s relief and support.
