APPEAL FROM HIGH COMMITTEE FOR HUMAN BROTHERHOOD Rome, May 02, 2020.

The High Committee for Human Brotherhood invites humanity to pray on May 14, 2020, for the end of the Covid-19 Coronavirus pandemic.

The "High Committee to Achieve the Goals Contained in the Document on Human Brotherhood" was born in September 2019, after the Document was signed by Pope Francis and the Grand Imam of Al-Azhar in Abu Dhabi - in February.

In a press release published on May 2, the members of the High Committee address the “believers in God” and “brothers in humanity everywhere in the world”: “Our world today faces an imminent danger threatening the lives of millions of people around the world due to the accelerated spread of the new coronavirus (COVID-19)”.

While hailing the role of medicine and scientific research, they also encourage to "address God, the Creator", especially on May 14: "We call all men and women all over the world to ask God in a prayer, observing the fast and invoking It - each one where he is according to his religion, belief, or doctrine - to end this pandemic, to save us from this misfortune and to inspire scholars the means to discover a remedy likely to annihilate this pandemic. "

They call for the restoration of "security, stability, health and prosperity so as to make our world, after the end of this pandemic, more humane and more fraternal than before".

The Committee calls on "all religious leaders and all men around the world to respond favorably to this human call and to speak to God with one voice so that He will save mankind".
