Holding such a prestigious event on the occasion of the 1400th anniversary of the emigration of the Prophet Muhammad and the 1100th anniversary of the acceptance of Islam by the Volgaboy Bulgarians is a highly commendable event.

According to the information of APA's Russian bureau, the Chairman of the Caucasian Muslims Office, Allahshukur Pashazade, said this in his speech at the XVIII International Muslim Forum on the theme of justice and moderation-divine principles of the world order held in Moscow.

Conveying the greetings of the President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev and the blessings of the people of Azerbaijan to the participants of the Forum, the chairman of the CMB expressed his gratitude for the initiative of celebrating this blessed history with an international event dedicated to such important and vital topics as moderation, friendly neighborliness, understanding between confessions and nations.

The people of Azerbaijan celebrated the second anniversary of the restoration of territorial integrity recognized by the international community by fulfilling the requirements of 4 UN resolutions under the leadership of President Ilham Aliyev during the Patriotic War.

During the 30-year occupation, the acts of vandalism against the cultural and moral heritage monuments in the Karabakh lands of Azerbaijan, the destroyed cities and villages, and our mosques were seen by the whole world, and some of the guests present here today saw with their own eyes.

Today, the state of Azerbaijan is restoring and rebuilding our religious and spiritual monuments in free Karabakh.

Azerbaijan, the winner, calls for peace in the region and comes up with economic projects, but unfortunately, the manifestations of revanchism on the part of Armenia do not subside.

The participation of the Armenian church in this process is regrettable.

During the conflict, thanks to the tripartite dialogue between the religious leaders of Azerbaijan and Armenia with the mediation of His Holiness Moscow and Patriarch of All Russia Kirill, the conflict was prevented from turning into a religious level.

On behalf of the people of Azerbaijan, I express my deep gratitude to my wise brother Patriarch Kirill for these services in the direction of peace.

I would like to express my deep gratitude to all my colleagues who support the cause of justice in Azerbaijan, especially to my brother, the head of Russian Muslims, Ravil Gaynutdin," Sheikhulislam A. Pashazade said.

The chairman of the CMB noted that there is great experience in preserving and deepening the traditional religious and spiritual relations of our peoples in the Interreligious Council within the Commonwealth of Independent States, as well as at the level of the Consultative Council of CIS Muslims:

"Our historical relations with the Central Asian states are our common moral wealth. At the level of the Supreme Religious Council of the Peoples of the Caucasus, the Coordinating Council of the North Caucasus Muftis, we have made great efforts to maintain the environment of peace, security, peaceful neighborhood and mutual understanding in the region for many decades.

In the 21st century, in an era where threats and crises do not abate, humanistic values ​​such as a culture of peaceful coexistence and mutual understanding, which serve to ensure peace and justice, are of particular importance.

Hate calls that incite aggression, violence and discrimination among people and become a political and social threat that disrupts stability in various countries, anti-humanist, racist, aggressive attitude towards forced migrants are the realities of the time.

It is necessary to prevent the dangers arising from the abuse of the name of religion for political purposes, the insulting of religious feelings, symbols and sanctities.

The human family can be saved from these threats only by uniting their efforts, thanks to the cooperation between different religions and cultures and sects.

Azerbaijan's successful model of coexistence can be an example for the whole world at the level of moral assessment of the world's problems today.

Multicultural wealth is one of the greatest assets of the Azerbaijan state.

His Excellency President Ilham Aliyev promotes the idea of ​​multiculturalism worldwide, is the author of the Baku process on intercultural cooperation, and defends the ideas of Islamic solidarity.

I hope that the Moscow Forum will contribute to the strengthening of the environment of mutual understanding and the establishment of peace at the international level.

Once again, I express my thanks to the organizers of the Forum, I wish the Almighty God great success in our joint efforts for the rise of the Islamic world and the deepening of its spiritual unity," Sheikhulislam Allahshukur Pashazade concluded his speech.
