The University of Faisalabad had the honor of welcoming the delegation from Palestine and Gaza in a remarkable expression of brotherhood and compassion. It marked a significant step toward building academic and healthcare partnerships aimed at empowering Palestinian institutions and communities through education, research, and medical assistance.
The Palestinian delegation included Prof Dr Ayman Mahmoud Sobh, President of Al-Aqsa University; Prof Dr Mr Salem A. Sabbah, President at University of Gaza, and Dr Darwish M.D. Aljakhlab, Dean, External Affairs, Islamic University of Gaza; Mr Ibraheem A. A. Abu Rahaman, Dean of Student Affairs at Gaza University; Dr Monia Kh. Mezyed, Dean of Scientific Research at Israa University; and Prof Noha A. Nijim, Dean, Faculty of Economics and Administrative Sciences at Al-Azhar University, Gaza.
The delegation was received in the presence of Dr Muhammad Murtaza Noor, Focal Person and Coordinator at OIC-COMSTECH, Mr Muhammad Haider Amin, Chairman Board of Governors, TUF; Dr Zahida Maqbool, Registrar, TUF; Prof Dr Akram Malik, Principal UMDC; and the Deans of all faculties of TUF.
The distinguished delegates shared their experiences and discussed the academic and healthcare challenges currently faced by Palestinian institutions amid the ongoing crisis. Mr Muhammad Haider Amin stated that TUF aims to help the people of Palestine by offering healthcare support through the advanced medical training and facilities available at UMDC and Madinah Teaching Hospital. He announced that TUF would extend comprehensive assistance through research resources, digital libraries, while also offering opportunities for Palestinian students — particularly those whose medical education has been disrupted — to continue their studies at The University of Faisalabad. Currently, the University is already hosting 19 Palestinian students enrolled in various disciplines, serving as a beacon of hope and educational continuity for the youth of Gaza.
During the meeting, the Deans of TUF proposed practical solutions to extend academic and healthcare assistance to Gaza. They suggested initiating an online education program to support Palestinian students, and establishing working groups in coordination with COMSTECH for prompt implementation. They also shared the idea of launching a digital telemedicine system to connect healthcare professionals in Gaza with UMDC’s medical faculty, enabling continuous guidance, consultation, for the rehabilitation of affected brothers and sisters.
The delegation also interacted with students and faculty members, sharing words of encouragement and appreciation for TUF’s ongoing academic and humanitarian initiatives. The members of the delegation also visited the state-of-the-art Madinah Teaching Hospital and the advanced laboratories of the University. As a gesture of friendship and sustainability, they also planted saplings in the University lawn, under the TUF Go Green Initiative.
