In a statement issued by the MWL General Secretariat, Sheikh Dr. Mohammed Al-Issa, the Secretary General and Chairman of the Organization of Muslim Scholars, reaffirmed the MWL’s unwavering support for the OIC’s resolute stance on Palestine, emphasizing the organization’s commitment to achieving a just and lasting peace for the Palestinian people.
Sheikh Dr. Al-Issa reiterated that the MWL stands firmly behind the OIC’s call for a solution to the Palestinian issue that guarantees the full rights of the Palestinian people, including the establishment of an independent state. The MWL’s position reflects its longstanding dedication to upholding justice, peace, and the rights of Palestinians in accordance with international law and the principles of equity and fairness. Sheikh Dr. Al-Issa’s statement reinforced the MWL’s ongoing efforts to support the Palestinian cause on both the regional and global stages, advocating for a resolution that respects the dignity and sovereignty of the Palestinian people.
In addition to its support for Palestine, the MWL also commended the decision by the OIC’s foreign ministers to reinstate Syria’s membership in the organization. This decision marks a significant step toward further strengthening the collective efforts of the Muslim world to support Syria in its recovery and rebuilding process. Sheikh Dr. Al-Issa emphasized that Syria’s reintegration into the OIC reflects a renewed commitment by member states to assist the Syrian people and government in overcoming the challenges they face, including efforts to restore security, stability, and peace throughout the country.
The MWL believes that Syria’s full participation in the OIC will enable greater cooperation between member states to address the humanitarian needs of the Syrian population and support the country’s path to recovery. Sheikh Dr. Al-Issa stressed the importance of solidarity within the Muslim world and the need for a collective approach to supporting Syria in its quest for peace and stability after years of devastating conflict.

As the MWL continues to advocate for peace, justice, and support for Muslim communities in need, it remains an influential voice in global discussions on humanitarian efforts and international diplomacy.
By aligning itself with the OIC’s resolutions, the MWL reiterates its dedication to working alongside member states to create a peaceful and stable environment for all Muslim nations, offering tangible support for the ongoing struggles in Palestine and Syria.
