"The bravest and the most courageous of actions that can be undertaken by a Muslim is when the word of truth is spoken against oppression and against the opposition - and that is exactly what you [PM Imran] have done," he said.

The scholar also praised the premier for giving a voice to the 'sensitivities of the Muslims,' adding, "Love, respect and honour for the blessed Prophet (PBUH) is something that resides in the heart of every single believer."

He ended the video by officially inviting PM Imran to visit South Africa.
