ISLAMABAD:

President Arif Alvi on Thursday issued the ordinance related to the establishment of Rehmatul lil Alameen Authority, as part of the government efforts to form ‘Riyasat-e-Madina’.

The authority will be comprised of a chairman and six members. Under the ordinance, Prime Minister Imran Khan will be the patron-in-chief of the committee.

The authority would take steps to make the “dream of a just and welfare state a reality.” Moreover, it would also conduct researches on Seerat-e-Nabvi and Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)’s teachings for “the character building” of youth.

It would also consult the experts concerned for making Seerat-e-Nabvi a part of the curriculum.

This past week during a special ceremony, the premier had announced that the government would establish the Rehmatul lil Alameen Authority.

The premier had said the authority would monitor the curriculum being taught at schools and organise research in universities regarding the true message of Islam in light of the teachings of the Holy Prophet (PBUH).

Akram Malik | 2 years ago | Reply With all the good intentions such an authority would be another layer of bureaucracy. Nothing more. It will be naive to think that one could change the attitude of a nation by legislation. It has not happened in the past and it was not happen now. It is the attitude of people that make the difference. We have lived over 30 years in Australia and we have observed that people help others without the input of the government. In Pakistan we have seen that people do help provided there is a leadership. We have got a shining example of Edhi foundation. One man created a miracle and we need more like him. We have seen one man created a nation and the entire nation followed him but we have not seen anyone since.
