Solutions proposed for economic prosperity

Caretaker Minister for Religious Affairs and Interfaith Harmony Aneeq Ahmed has said the life of Holy Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) stood as a timeless wisdom.

Addressing the annual Seeratun Nabi Conference themed – Practical Wisdom for Economic Prosperity in the Light of Sunnah – here at the Pakistan-China Friendship Centre, he emphasised that true success was not measured by wealth, fame, or power instead, the strength of one’s character, integrity of actions, and impact on the well-being of others.

In today’s rapidly changing world, where success was often measured by material achievements, Minister Aneeq encouraged believers to reflect on their own conduct, saying: “To truly embody the values of faith, we must strive to align our ethics and actions with the radiant example of the Prophet’s life.”

Meanwhile, caretaker Interior Minister Sarfraz Ahmed Bugti highlighted the significance of Islamic values and the need for anti-corruption measures.
He underlined the corruption’s detrimental impact on the country’s foundations and announced plans to establish trade regulations in line with Islamic traditions.

Bugti reiterated that adhering to the principles laid out by Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) would lead to prosperity and development.
Council of Islamic Ideology (CII) Chairman Dr Qibla Ayaz emphasised the need to reconsider the term “minority” and instead highlight the religious identity of individuals in light of changing global demographics and the increased migration of religious practitioners.

He highlighted a remarkable event of the era of Hazrat Umar when a non-Muslim who was old and financially broken, was begging in a street.

Pakistan Ulema Council Chairman Hafiz Muhammad Tahir Mahmood Ashrafi underscored the significance of peace as a catalyst for attracting foreign investment to the country.
