Prospects of Shariah compliance discussed

Businessmen praised for contributing to public welfare projects

ISLAMABAD:

The business community is playing an important role in economic development of Pakistan by promoting business and industrial activities besides making significant contribution to public welfare projects, said Badshahi Mosque Imam and Khateeb Maulana Syed Muhammad Abdul Kabir Azad.

During his visit to the Islamabad Chamber of Commerce and Industry (ICCI), he discussed prospects of promoting Shariah-compliant businesses that would further boost business and economic activities in the country.

Azad said the Ulema were playing a crucial role in foiling any nefarious designs against Pakistan as they were the flag-bearers of unity, brotherhood, tolerance and peace in society.

He added that the Ulema belonging to all schools of thought stood united for the integrity and stability of the country and would never let elements working against interests of Pakistan to succeed in their conspiracies.

Speaking on the occasion, ICCI President Sardar Yasir Ilyas Khan said the ICCI would consider organising a seminar on promoting Shariah-compliant businesses.

Khan said peace and harmony were very important for growth of business activities and hoped that the Ulema would continue to play their role in making Pakistan a peaceful and harmonised country.
