Message of the President, IIUI, Dr. Ahmed Yousif A. Al-Draiweesh on National Day of Saudi Arabia

National day celebration of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia comes every year to remind us of the greatness of the efforts and sacrifice that were introduced by the Kingdom’s founder His Majesty late King Abdulaziz bin Abdulrahman Al Saud and his faithful followers who afforded every valuable and precious assets they have for the sake of Kingdom’s survival and continuation.

The national day anniversary emphasizes the firmness of rules and principles on which the Kingdom’s great achievements are based. It comes also as the culmination of the process of growth, development and construction since the era of the Founder King to the era of well-being, the prosperous development that we are witnessing today under the great leadership of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques His Majesty King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud and His Royal Highness Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, where the Kingdom stands proudly, side by side with the developed countries, in every field. Thanks to Allah, the Kingdom enjoys blessed renaissance with more security and stability in spite of the security, economic and political challenges in the region.

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is a country that believes on the Oneness of Allah, the Holy Quran, and His Prophet Mohammed, and adopts Islamic constitution as a way of life. National Independence day of the Kingdom, here at IIUI, is indeed a matter of happiness, joy and felicitations as students and officials of the university are overwhelmed to convey the warmest wishes to His Majesty and people of Kingdom on this important day.

I am also pleased on this occasion to express with pride, and praise that IIUI being a  distinguished omen of strong bilateral relationship between Pakistan and Saudi Arabia has set itself on the pathway to promotion of peace, prosperity and dissemination of Islamic values as per aspirations of the the leaderships of both countries.

KSA’s cooperation to IIUI is laudable indeed and recent visit of IIUI Pro Chancellor Prof. Dr Abdullah Aba Al-Khail was an example of this remarkable cooperation as the visit led to the historical meeting of Board of Trustees of the university and it established the foundations for new era of bilateral cooperation between IIUI and Imam Muhammad Ibn Saud Islamic University, Riyadh through a number of agreements and memorandums of understanding during the visit.

Once again, I would like to congratulate the Kingdom’s people and its Government under the wisdom and leadership of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques His Majesty King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, hoping that peace and stability would prevail in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Pakistan and all over the Muslim world.
