In celebrating the World Interfaith Harmony Week 2015, URI office organized an “Interfaith Harmony Walk” at Al Hussein Sport City’s pine forest. During the walk, the participants gathered in circle and prayed for the soul of the brave Jordanian pilot Muath al-Kasaesbeh who was brutally murdered by Isis militants. Some participant reflected on this tragic action highlighting the fact it does not represent Islam by any means. Then the participants shared prayers for peace from different religious traditions. Afterwards, the URI RC conducted an exercise that shows how the followers of all religious traditions get closer to each other while they are striving to achieve their ultimate goal which is to get closer to their creator. Hence, it would be easier if mankind cooperate to achieve this goal instead of competing and make their lives difficult.
