Allama Sayyed Abul Hasan Nadwi ‘May Allah Have Mercy on Him’ (Part 30)
The Power and Life of Nations Depend on Mission and Character!
Speech at the Saudi Embassy
Dear Brothers!
I take this valuable opportunity as a treasure and I welcome the service of this collection that was chosen by the “Rabbat Al-Alam al-Islami” institution, which I have the honor to represent, to visit this beloved and lovely land. Also, I would like to thank the Afghan government and people for their warm welcome and hospitality, and for their kind and friendly treatment. These attributes are not unlikely from this nation, because dignity and magnanimity are part of their originality. The Arabs have said since ancient times: “It is not strange to find everything in its source.” Courage and fearlessness in every sense, management and governance of this nation were manifested when they crossed the borders of their land and passed through difficult mountains and brought the light of Islam, Islamic culture, and civilization and good management to India. India spent a lifetime under the shadow of history, pride, and news of this nation.
I live in India, in the neighborhood of Afghanistan. I had planned to travel to this country long before this trip, but the will of Allah was that I should travel now, and maybe there is some wisdom in this matter.
Dear masters!
In the past, the Arabs considered these areas to be very far away, and they made a proverb due to the distance and difficulty of reaching it, and they called all these eastern areas “Khorasan”. The Arabic poet says: “Our final destination is Khorasan, and then we are ready to return to our homeland.” Yes, we reached Khorasan and entered Afghanistan. This pure and beautiful land, Allah has decorated it with good nature, has a good climate, and is full of blessings.
