Dr. Naik’s visit, which will last until October 28, includes public gatherings in several cities, leading Friday prayers, and meetings with senior government officials. His itinerary features events in Karachi on October 5 and 6, followed by sessions in Lahore on October 12 and 13, and concluding with gatherings in Islamabad on October 19 and 20.

Upon his arrival at Islamabad Airport, Dr. Naik was welcomed with a bouquet of flowers by prominent figures, including Chairman of the PM’s Youth Programme Rana Mashhood and Additional Secretary of the Ministry of Religious Affairs, Dr. Syed Attaur Rehman.

The renowned scholar confirmed his trip on social media, sharing the news alongside his son, Shaikh Fariq Naik.
