He touched upon the danger of terrorism and its causes as well as the Kingdom's efforts in the fight against it at the Regional and global levels. He has also pointed out the importance of educating young people and citizens and raising their awareness of their significant roles towards maintaining security and stability along with understanding the specificity of the Kingdom and its firm unity since its foundation by King Abdel Aziz until the reign of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman bin Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud and his Crown Prince and deputy-crown prince (God Bless Them all). Furthermore, he explained that the teachings of Islam are against all forms of terrorism, and that the goal of linking terrorism with Islam is tarnishing its clean image. He noted that the World Muslim League has been fighting terrorism all around the globe through its programs and plans. He added that the University plays an essential role in deepening these concepts on the Academic and community levels in order to immunize young people against deviation and illusion through awareness programs and events.
