The Emirates of Tolerance

The United Arab Emirates is a home of peace, security and safety. It is the house of Zayed, the man of goodness, peace and love.

This is the Emirates that starts the Year of Tolerance with a great welcome to His Holiness Pope Francis of the Catholic Church and His Eminence Dr. Ahmad Al Tayyeb ,the Emam of Al Azhar Al Shareef  and with organizing  a unique conference on Tolerance in order to send a great  message to the world emphasizing the brotherhood that embodies the love of  goodness  and  tolerance  in order to let life flourish  with sublime meanings and continue to discover new horizons in construction ,development and continuous creativity.

The principles of our religion stand on building humanitarian societies on the basis mercy, respect, good manners and civil interaction. This is what our prophet Mohammed (Peace Be Upon Him) has taught us in his saying: “I have come to complete the noble manners”.

We in the United Arab Emirates and in accordance with the principles of our religion, are opening our hearts to the world to emphasize that brotherhood and confrontation of hatred and violence with the gentle word and good will for all human beings in addition to acceptance of all people regardless of their races and beliefs is indeed the human structure upon which a world of security and peace rests.

Our wise leadership has set a social culture that rests on respect, love, peace and tolerance. This is witnessed in the progress and development of the Emirati society which has reached the highest levels of economic, political and social developments while holding tight on its principles, culture and civilization embodying several glorious human experiences and leading to the ideal model of earnest work and constructivism.

Congratulations and blessings to the Emirates on its wise and glorious leadership not only in the sector construction and progress, and not only in the area of providing a decent life for the people of the State, and not only in the area of providing humanitarian assistance to other peoples and states but also in the area of spreading the message of peace and tolerance.

May God Almighty bless the people and leaders of the Emirates and keep it at the crest of goodness and humanitarian eminence.
