International Days Observed by Islamic Countries

Overview

Pakistan joined the OIC to observe the first-ever 'International Day to Combat Islamophobia' on 15th March. The International Day to Combat Islamophobia was established by the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) to raise awareness about Islamophobia and promote tolerance and understanding.

The OIC's decision to establish an International Day to Combat Islamophobia reflects the organization's commitment to promoting peace and stability in the Muslim world and protecting the rights of Muslims.
The International Day to Combat Islamophobia will be observed by OIC member states around the world, and it will provide a platform for raising awareness about Islamophobia and promoting tolerance and understanding.

The date of 15th March was chosen for the International Day to Combat Islamophobia because it marks the anniversary of a terrorist attack on two mosques in New Zealand.
The attack was a tragic reminder of the dangers of Islamophobia and the need for international cooperation to combat hate and promote tolerance.

The International Day to Combat Islamophobia will be an annual event, and it will provide a platform for OIC member states to raise awareness about Islamophobia and promote tolerance and understanding.
The day will be observed through a range of events and activities, including conferences, seminars, and cultural festivals.
