Allah bestowed upon us many good things, pearls, and oil, and these things were the spark that was used to light the path of the future. Today, thanks to Allah, we have distinguished ourselves in many matters and fields, in health, economy, aviation, security and industry, and many more," he continued. "There are two main pillars behind where we are today. The first is, without a doubt, success from Allah Almighty, and the second is the knowledge that, had it not been for our adherence to it, we would not have reached where we are today."The programme will feature specialists in various fields.
