Bukhari commented that the Al-Qadir University would provide a blend of Islamic and scientific education to the students, making them spiritually and intellectually capable personalities. The university’s curricula will focus on Sufism to promote culture of research in Islam.
He added the concept of setting up the Al-Qadir University was to realise the prime minister’s dream of providing equal opportunities of education to the youth.
“Prime Minister Imran Khan has a vision to transform Pakistan into a welfare state on the pattern of State of Medina and establishing such institutions to impart Islamic teachings to the youth showed his commitment in that regard,” Bukhari said.
“No university existed between Gujrat and Rawalpindi and therefore, Sohawa has been selected to establish Al-Qadir University to cater to the educational needs of youth in the area” Bukhari added.
