Today, November 19, 2024, the Deputy Prime Minister for Economic Affairs, Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar Akhund, met with a group of Islamic scholars from India and Bangladesh at his office.

During the meeting, the Deputy Prime Minister highlighted that the Islamic Emirate has always strived to present the blessed religion of Islam to its people in its purest form, free from any superstitions. To achieve this goal, the Islamic Emirate has strengthened its educational institutions, worked on the establishment of new academic bodies, and implemented significant reforms in the educational curriculum.

He further emphasized that, in addition to these efforts, the Islamic Emirate has initiated effective measures to improve the economic situation of the country. Large economic projects have been launched, trade with neighboring countries, the region, and the world has expanded, there has been progress in the industrial sector, and the foundation for a self-reliant economy, free from foreign dependence, has been established.

He also pointed out that the freezing of Afghanistan’s national assets and the economic sanctions have been major obstacles hindering the country’s economic growth. The Islamic Emirate seeks to establish political and economic relations with the world based on mutual benefits, under the guidance of Islamic Sharia, and advocates for a self-sufficient Afghanistan, which would be beneficial for both the region and the world.

The scholars from India and Bangladesh expressed their happiness with the establishment of the Islamic system in Afghanistan and shared their views on strengthening the Islamic system.
