Saudi King's efforts to facilitate peaceful coexistence through
Addressing a gathering of heads of Hajj missions last year (1428 H.), the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques said "The divine religions, including the doctrine of Prophet Ibrahim, share major principles and great values which form the concept of humanity and distinguish thehuman from other creatures.
They are principles of truthfulness, honesty, tolerance, solidarity, equality, human dignity, and family,without which no society could emerge".
He focused on what combines religions, beliefs and cultures. He said "I ask you and I ask whoever happen to hear me now or read my words later, to remember what brings religions, beliefs and cultures together. We should emphasize what is common. Also, we should adhere the concepts of morality and family, and to appease Allah the Almighty. So, we go beyond our differences and bridge the gaps between us, and together create a world of peace and understandingand the progress and prosperity become in our interest".
The call of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques to dialogue came to emphasize his noble endeavor in this regard when he received at his palace in Riyadh the participants in the 6th Forum of Dialogue of Civilizations between Japan and Islamic World, which was held in Riyadh from 15 -17 Rabee Awal 1429 H. He said "I avail myself of this opportunity to share with you what is in my mind, hoping that youlisten to these short words because I want to hear from you.
Over the last two years, I was thinking of the crisis facing mankind in the present time. It is a crisis that resulted in the imbalance of reason, morality and the humanity. We lost the honesty, morality, trustfulness, and sincerity for our religions and humanity. The atheism outbreaks a lot, which is not permitted by religions, neitherthe Quran nor the Torah or the Bible.
Also, I have been informed by my friends in many countries that family system there is disintegrated nowadays. You know the importance of family and the danger of its vanish. Of course, the dearest people for every parents are their children. Let us imagine what would happen if a youth or a young girl has abandoned his father and mother and engulfed in matters not accepted by morality norreligion, nor by Allah the Almighty".
He added "I thought I would call on representatives of divine religions, who definitely share faith and dedication, to come and work together to salvage humanity. Then I approached our Islamic scholars in the Kingdom who, thanks to God Almighty, welcomed the idea." The encouraging of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz for dialogue among civilizations has opened a wide window for the Islamic organizations to defend the Islamicnation and its great pillars.
Crowning the efforts of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz to enhance communication and dialogue among civilizations, cultures and consensus in concepts among them, a global award for translation was launched and named: Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz International Award for Translation, recognizing that the scientific, intellectual and cultural renaissance is based on mutual translation between languages as a tool to convey the sciences and experiences of nations andpeoples.
Also, it is based on raising of cultural awareness and establishing scientific ties between the human societies and on awareness of the importance of translation in the exchange of knowledge and strengthening the interaction between the Arab and Islamic culture and other cultures and supporting the dialogue amongcivilizations and cultures.
