The sixth convocation of Jamia Islamia Minhaj-ul-Quran was held here at Aiwan-e-Iqbal in which the position-holding students were given gold medals in recognition of their educational performance.

Shaykh-ul-Islam Dr Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri congratulated the teachers on their hard work and the students on their academic achievement and said that guiding the people is binding on the scholars. He said that instead of being carried away by emotions, the religious scholars should save the people from the precipice. He said that productive knowledge saves one from immorality, extremism and radicalism. He however added in the same breath that knowledge without action is defective.

Chairman MQI Supreme Council Dr Hassan Mohi-ud-Din Qadri presided over the Convocation, whereas former President of Al-Azhar University Dr Ibrahim Salih al-Sayyid Sulayman al-Hudhud and Prof. Ahmad Mahmood Hassan Sharif (al-Azhar Mosque, Egypt) were the guests of honour on the occasion.

In their speeches, both the Egyptian scholars extended their felicitations to the students on achieving a milestone in their academic journey. They also lauded the role of Shaykh-ul-Islam Dr Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri in the field of education.

In his address, Dr Hassan Mohi-ud-Din Qadri said that a life of ease and comfort and the acquisition of knowledge cannot be together at one place. He said that one has to devote oneself to gain productive knowledge. He said that the legacy of knowledge is far superior to the inheritance of gold and silver. He said that the Imams and Hadith scholars suffered many hardships in the process of acquiring knowledge, adding that it is due to these hardships that the light of knowledge has reached us.
