MWL, Islamic coalition to combat extremism and terrorism
JEDDAH: The secretary-general of the Muslim World League and chairman of the association of Muslim scholars on Sunday visited the headquarters of the Islamic Military Counter Terrorism Coalition in Riyadh. Dr. Mohammed bin Abdulkarim Al-Issa delivered a lecture, titled 'A Reading into the Transformations of Contemporary Intellectual Ideology.' He highlighted the evolution of extremist ideologies in today's world, their diverse forms in terms of religion, politics, and intellect, and the tactical shifts they have undergone. Al-Issa outlined the importance of dialogue and debate in confronting extremist narratives, particularly in addressing misconceptions in and beyond the Islamic world. He said the missing link in many international efforts remains the quality of content and delivery in counter-extremism messaging. The MWL chief also addressed Islamophobia, discussing its causes and offering practical approaches to tackling the phenomenon. He was welcomed by the coalition's secretary-general, Maj. Gen. Mohammed bin Saeed Al-Moghedi, who attended the lecture alongside member state representatives and coalition personnel. Both sides explored ways to boost cooperation between the coalition and the Muslim World League to strengthen joint efforts in combating extremism and terrorism. Al-Moghedi praised Al-Issa's visit affirming the coalition's commitment to expanding constructive collaboration and unifying efforts in addressing terrorism, which poses a threat to global peace and security. Al-Issa was also briefed on the coalition's initiatives in four key domains — intellectual, media, counter-terror financing, and military — in addition to its specialized strategic programs. He praised the Kingdom's leadership for its support in fighting terrorism and extremism in all forms, stressing that the Islamic Military Counter Terrorism Coalition plays a pivotal role in addressing extremist ideologies and fostering international cooperation. Al-Issa commended the coalition's efforts at the Islamic and global levels to combat terrorism and violence.
