[00:00:03] If we look at our history, home,
[00:00:06] mosque, hujra, school, and
[00:00:09] university were the places that gave
[00:00:13] personality to humans. Media, above all,
[00:00:17] affects human intellect and psyche. If
[00:00:20] used in a positive direction, it becomes
[00:00:23] the driving force of society, and if
[00:00:26] it falls into a negative direction, it becomes
[00:00:30] a tool for decline and intellectual defeat. For this
[00:00:33] reason, the role of media is not only
[00:00:37] to inform, but also to be very
[00:00:40] restrictive in all aspects of human
[00:00:44] life. Islamic Sharia has set five major objectives:
[00:00:48] protection of religion, protection of life,
[00:00:51] protection of intellect, protection of lineage,
[00:00:54] and protection of property. If
[00:00:58] we achieve
[00:01:02] this, religion remains safe when the correct
[00:01:05] message is spread through the media.
[00:01:08] Human life is protected when the
[00:01:11] mind is properly shaped
[00:01:14] through the media. Intellect is
[00:01:17] protected when sound thinking, pure
[00:01:21] education, and correct information are disseminated
[00:01:25] through the media. Future generations are guaranteed a healthy
[00:01:29] future when the media supports family
[00:01:32] values and Islamic ethics. Property is
[00:01:35] safe when the media promotes economic
[00:01:38] literacy, transparency, and
[00:01:41] halal earnings. It is not
[00:01:45] merely a tool, but an important
[00:01:48] front for achieving Islamic
[00:01:51] objectives. In the past two decades, Afghanistan
[00:01:55] has experienced
[00:01:56] a media
[00:01:59] experiment. The nation-building project led by America
[00:02:02] was imposed on Afghans at a time
[00:02:06] when the war
[00:02:08] was
[00:02:16] actually a war to change minds.
[00:02:19] Spreading Western values through the media
[00:02:22] and changing the Afghan mentality
[00:02:25] was their main goal. This is
[00:02:28] something that even American officials later
[00:02:32] admitted in their books and gatherings.
[00:02:36] When America withdrew, they could
[00:02:39] not admit during the
[00:02:42] explanation of their mission that nation-building
[00:02:46] had failed. The Afghan people were sensitive
[00:02:49] to foreign values, and the media
[00:02:52] fell victim to this sensitivity. Today, our
[00:02:56] media faces a historical stage. If the home
[00:03:03] becomes a great player in shaping
[00:03:06] human character, but if it remains
[00:03:10] only a means of conveying news and
[00:03:14] abandons its mission of awareness, then
[00:03:18] we will only be informed, not
[00:03:21] aware. For the development of society,
[00:03:25] news, understanding, analysis,
[00:03:28] and insight into
[00:03:30] truth and falsehood are also essential. Awareness
[00:03:33] arises when the media presents sound and
[00:03:37] positive material for the intellectual and character
[00:03:40] development of the nation. Therefore, we should have
[00:03:42] no doubt about the value
[00:03:45] of the media,
[00:03:47] which we should cherish. It is a
[00:03:51] force that determines the fate of
[00:03:53] nations,
[00:03:56] minds, and everything. Therefore,
[00:04:00] special attention should be paid
[00:04:03] to the management and effective use of
[00:04:06] the media. If used correctly, it is a
[00:04:09] great tool for national awareness, the
[00:04:13] healthy upbringing of generations, and the
[00:05:00] progress of society. Salama Hanafi has discussed the
[00:05:03] permanent settlement of returning refugees, land distribution, and the
[00:05:06] provision of essential facilities. During the meeting,
[00:05:10] reports on the activities of relevant
[00:05:12] committees were presented, while members first reviewed plans for constructing
[00:05:16] mosques, religious schools, educational institutions, and
[00:05:19] health centers in migrant townships. The meeting also
[00:05:22] emphasized accelerating the land distribution process, strengthening
[00:05:26] coordination among government institutions, and creating
[00:05:29] suitable employment opportunities for returnees to facilitate their
[00:05:33] resettlement and address their
[00:05:39] challenges. Foreign Minister Maulawi Amir Khan Muttaqi delivered a speech
[00:05:42] to students of the seventh batch of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Diplomatic
[00:05:45] Institute. He discussed foreign
[00:05:48] policy principles, the importance of diplomacy, the professional
[00:05:52] and ethical qualities of diplomats, protecting national
[00:05:55] interests, and expanding relations with neighboring,
[00:05:58] regional, and international countries based on mutual
[00:06:02] respect.
[00:06:07] Afghanistan's Ministry of Public Works says nearly 5 million metric tons of
[00:06:11] goods were transported through the country's ports in the first six months of
[00:06:15] 1402, more than double the over 2 million tons
[00:06:18] recorded during the same period last year.
[00:06:21] Report The Ministry of Public Works
[00:06:24] says the transportation of commercial and transit goods through the
[00:06:28] country's various ports has doubled compared to previous
[00:06:31] years. Mohammad, spokesman of the
[00:06:35] Ministry, says nearly 5 million metric tons of goods were
[00:06:39] exported or imported through the country's various
[00:07:30] ports. The Ministry spokesman adds that oil, liquefied
[00:07:34] gas, wheat, flour, cooking oil, and other
[00:07:37] food and construction materials were imported into the country
[00:07:40] during this period.
[00:08:46] Inter-Ministerial Investment Committee was held at the Marival Palace. At the meeting,
[00:08:50] a proposal by the private sector to construct a three-story commercial market on
[00:08:54] municipal land in Sheberghan, the capital of Jawzjan province, was
[00:08:58] presented for discussion. Following comprehensive discussions, the
[00:09:01] proposal was deemed eligible for approval. The private sector also
[00:09:05] presented a proposal to establish laboratories for the testing and
[00:09:08] diagnosis of infectious diseases in the country. Following
[00:09:12] comprehensive discussions, it was decided that the Ministry of Public Health should
[00:09:16] assess all aspects of the proposal and share its report with the
[00:09:19] Inter-Ministerial Investment
[00:09:21] Committee.
[00:09:27] The Standards and Quality Authority has announced the return of nearly
[00:09:30] 150 tons of substandard goods to the country of origin through the
[00:09:34] Islam Qala border crossing. The authority added that the shipment,
[00:09:37] weighing a total of 149,480
[00:09:40] kilograms, was returned to its country of origin through the
[00:09:44] Islam Qala border crossing because it did not meet
[00:09:47] domestic
[00:09:48] standards.
[00:09:54] The Ministry for the Propagation of Virtue and Prevention of Vice, and Hearing of Complaints
[00:09:57] says it addressed 123
[00:10:00] cases related to women's Sharia rights during the past
[00:10:03] week. According to the Ministry, 13 cases of enmity and
[00:10:07] 56 disputes were also resolved during this period,
[00:10:10] while 13 people accused of vice were arrested and handed over
[00:10:14] to judicial
[00:10:15] authorities.
[00:10:23] At the same time, the Ministry of Propagation
[00:10:25] of Virtue, Prevention of Vice, and Hearing of Complaints has announced the rescue of a woman in
[00:10:29] Ghazni province after she had been kept under house arrest
[00:10:32] by her husband for six years. The Ministry
[00:10:36] added that the woman was freed through joint efforts by
[00:10:39] morality inspectors, police command officials, and
[00:10:42] intelligence authorities in this
[00:10:45] province.
[00:10:51] A total of 250 personnel of the Ministry of Defense's 205
[00:10:55] Al-Badr Army Corps have graduated from Darawaha and Khaiber
[00:10:59] Brigade training centers after completing a three-month course in
[00:11:02] military, ideological, and professional training. The Ministry
[00:11:06] of Defense says graduates demonstrated special military
[00:11:09] discipline and various skills during the graduation
[00:11:13] ceremony.
[00:11:22] Consideration of the draft trilateral defense agreement between Saudi Arabia,
[00:11:26] Turkey, and Pakistan has been postponed in the Turkish Parliament.
[00:11:29] According to reports, some Turkish lawmakers have criticized the
[00:11:33] agreement, warning against their country entering new and
[00:11:36] undefined military commitments. They have called
[00:11:39] for greater clarity regarding its scope. The
[00:11:43] lawmakers have stressed that Turkish military forces should not become
[00:11:47] involved in the crises of other countries. The trilateral
[00:11:50] defense agreement between Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Pakistan was signed
[00:11:54] on July 7, 2026. Under the
[00:11:57] agreement, any armed attack against one member country is
[00:12:00] considered an attack against all
[00:12:02] members.
[00:12:09] The defense ministries of Saudi Arabia and Syria have signed a defense
[00:12:12] cooperation agreement. According to Reuters, the agreement was signed
[00:12:16] during a visit by Ahmad, head of Syria's transitional
[00:12:20] government, to Riyadh, where he met with Saudi Crown Prince
[00:12:23] Mohammed bin Salman. No details have so far been
[00:12:27] released about the terms of the agreement. However,
[00:12:30] Reuters has previously reported that Syria is considering
[00:12:34] providing military assistance to Saudi Arabia in its war
[00:12:37] against
