Briefing the Chief Minister of their welfare activities they said that though their foundation was working in over 90 countries and regions and had dispatched thousands of their activists there just in this Ramadan but they have special relations with Pakistan particularly the people of Pakhtunkhwa as they had supported the Ottoman Empire in the past.

They said that they had constructed and distributed one thousand houses in different parts of KP for the poor and 400 orphans were studying in their centre as boarder while 500 were day-scholars there. They also invited the Chief Minister to visit Konya, Turkey.
