Riyadh, Oct 18: Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman issued on Tuesday an order to set up a complex named after him for the Tradition of the Prophet (peace be upon him).

The King Salman Complex for the Prophet’s Tradition will be based in Madinah, the Saudi Press Agency reported quoting the royal decree.

The complex will have a scientific council comprising world-renowned scholars of Hadith. The council's president and members will be appointed through a royal decree.

Sheikh Muhammad Bin Hassan Al-Asheikh, member of the Council of Senior Scholars, has been appointed as the president of the council.

In the decree, the King noted that the decision to establish the complex has been made after taking into account the great status enjoyed by the Prophet’s Tradition or Hadith among Muslims as the second source of the Islamic Shariah after the Holy Qur’an.

The King’s order went viral on social media, with many calling it as a great step in serving the Prophet’s Tradition.

Some tweeted that Saudi Arabia and its government are doing their utmost to spread the message of the Holy Qur’an and the Prophet’s Tradition.

The complex would be a landmark achievement in promoting the Sunnah. It will engage in free distribution of Hadith around the world.

The setting up of the complex is regarded as an unprecedented and successful experiment with a highly challenging mission that will function under the supervision of the Kingdom’s leadership. 

Choosing Madinah as the seat of the complex is because of the position of the holy city to where the Prophet (PBUH) made his migration and where he was buried.

The choice of Al-Sheikh as the chairman of the scientific council also shows a wise decision as he is one of the eminent scholars of Hadith, its reporting and interpretation.

The other 105 people were stranded in Bangladesh, Law Minister Ratan Lal Nath said.

"Altogether 136 people from Tripura and Assam, who are at present in jail in Kuwait for violating that country's laws, would be deported. They will reach Guwahati between May 27 and June 4 in a special flight," Nath told reporters.

He said the matter has been officially informed by the Kuwaiti government, but the reason for their imprisonment is not known.

"We had requested the Kuwaiti authorities to drop the Tripura residents here. However, they informed us that the flight would land in a single airport," the minister added.

Nath said 105 residents of Tripura, who are stranded in different places of Bangladesh will return to the state through the Agartala-Akhaura integrated check post on May 28.

"They would be taken to institutional quarantine and swabs of all the passengers would be collected for COVID-19 test," Nath said.

If the report of their samples tests negative, they would be allowed to leave the facility and remain under 14 days of home quarantine. And those who test positive would be hospitalized, he said.
