Makkah Al-Mukarramah:

The Custodian of the Two Holy Mosque’s call for dialogue originates in principles of Islam, and aims at achieving acquaintance, cooperation between people, reconciliation between nations, and introducing them to Islam, further affirming the global nature of this message.

Dr. Al-Turky stated, “The [Muslim World] League chose ‘dialogue’ as a theme to discuss at the conference because the world is in need to discuss common human issues and achieve tolerance between nations.”

The Muslim World League is eager to implement events as part of the Islamic Cultural Project, which aims at achieving tolerance, safety, peace and justice between nations.

The main office of the Muslim World League has stated that Islamic Global Conference for Dialogue, which is to be initiated with the generous patronage of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah bin Abdul-Azeez Aal-Su‘ûd – may Allah protect him – , shall be held in Makkah on 26-28 Jumâdâ l’Ûlâ 1429 Hegira, corresponding to 31 May till 02 June 2008.
