The Secretary General further indicated that the Academy which will be hosted in Madinah Al Munawarra will endeavour to spread, wide and far, the message of Mankind’s educator, Prophet Mohammed, may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon Him, and to extend the thought and ideology of our gracious Prophet Mohammed, the seal of the prophets and messengers, to humankind at large.
