Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina today (August 13) urged all Islamic scholars to help the government stamp out militancy and terrorism from the country.
She said, "We want Islamic scholars' cooperation to prevent superstition, militancy and terrorism. I urge all to be vigilant that our children can't take wrong direction."
The premier said while distributing awards among five national level winners of the Jatiya Hifzul Quran Competition-2023.
The Religious Affairs Ministry organised the function at the Bangabandhu International Conference Centre (BICC) in the capital today.
The prime minister asked the Islamic scholars to spread the true sense of Islam as none can divert anyone to the militancy and terrorism and defame Islam, which is the best religion across the globe and always speaks for peace.
She also asked all particularly the guardians to remain cautious about their children's movement.
