Separately, Pakistan cricket team captain Mohammad Rizwan expressed solidarity with the country, calling for unity and courage in the face of external threats.
Taking to social media platform X (formerly Twitter), Rizwan drew on Islamic teachings to emphasize restraint but firmness in the event of aggression. “We have learned from the pure words of Allah SWT not to initiate war — but if war is imposed upon you, do not retreat,” he wrote.
Referring to Pakistan’s long battle with terrorism, Rizwan remarked that “generations have grown up hearing gunfire and explosions,” highlighting the resilience of the nation.
