Punjab Assembly Speaker Chaudhry Parvez Elahi has said that relations between Pakistan and Saudi Arabia are based on religious
and friendly grounds and there is nothing more sacred than Saudi Arabia for Muslims all over the world, including Pakistan.

He was talking to a spokesperson for the key holder of Khana Ka'aba Dr Saleh Zain-ul-Abideen, Mian Abdul Rehman who called on him at his residence here on Sunday. Secretary of Punjab Assembly Muhammad Khan Bhatti was present at the meeting while Mufti Shahbaz Alam, Abdul Kabir Azad and Mian Muhammad Tariq were also part of the delegation.

Mian Abdul Rehman conveyed the special message of Dr Saleh Zain-ul-Abideen, the key holder of the Ka'aba, and said that prayers were offered in the
Ka'aba, especially for the security of Pakistan and the health of Chaudhry Shujat Hussain.

Parvez Elahi said that due to the corona epidemic, Pakistanis are temporarily deprived of the blessings of Umrah. The hearts of Pakistanis are beating in Makkah and Madinah. We all pray that this insidious disease will be cured soon and that Muslims will be able to perform religious rites with
freedom.
