Shafaqna Pakistan: Prime Minister Imran Khan on Monday said that a society moves toward destruction when people forget distinction between good and bad.
Addressing the Ulema and Mashaikh Conference in Islamabad on Monday, he said that the principles of state of Madina must be followed if the nation wants to prosper.
Giving example of the suicide of a Singaporean minister, the prime minister said that a minister in Singapore had committed suicide after he was found involved in corruption.
Imran Khan said ensuring all the basic rights to every citizen and rule of law were the two main principles of the State of Madina.
Referring to the growth in the Scandinavian countries, he said these countries acted upon the principles practiced in the State of Madina, but we lagged behind for not paying due attention to them.
The premier said unfortunately Islam was linked to terrorism in the West. He said Islam has nothing to do with extremism or terrorism, but it is a religion of peace. He said he has emphatically spoken against Islamophobia at international forums, including the United Nations and the OIC, and will continue raising voice in this regard.
