National progress linked to the role of women in society: Dr Hassan Mohi-ud-Din Qadri

Chairman of MQI Supreme Council Dr Hassan Mohi-ud-Din Qadri, while addressing an educational and training session of the women residents of Itikaf City, has urged them to focus their attention on the learning of knowledge. He said that the extreme attitudes building in the society are due to the lack of education and training of the women. He asked the parents not to neglect their duty of educating their daughters, stating that national development is closely linked to the women’s participation in the national life within the limits set by Islam.

Dr Hassan Mohi-ud-Din Qadri said that educational, intellectual and scholarly initiatives such as collective Itikaf are part of the services that MQI is rendering to the cause of humanity, Pakistan, and Islam.
