A father is an influential role model and a vital pillar of his family’s happiness and stability. On Father’s Day, we remember our Founding Father, the late Sheikh Zayed, as the epitome of fatherhood who built a nation through wisdom, compassion and dedication. We salute every father who follows in his footsteps, nurturing his family with love, instilling noble values in his children, and opening doors of hope and opportunity so our families remain a source of strength and progress for our society and nation.
پھر اِنسان (کا حال یہ ہے کہ جب اُس) کو کوئی تکلیف چھو جاتی ہے تو وہ ہمیں پکارتا ہے، اس کے بعد جب ہم اُسے اپنی طرف سے کسی نعمت سے نوازتے ہیں تو وہ کہتا ہے کہ یہ تو مجھے (اپنے) ہنر کی وجہ سے ملی ہے۔ نہیں! بلکہ یہ آزمائش ہے، لیکن ان میں سے اکثر لوگ نہیں جانتے۔
سورۃ الزمر
اے نبی! بیشک ہم نے تمہیں ایسا بنا کر بھیجا ہے کہ تم گواہی دینے والے، خوشخبری سنانے والے اور خبردار کرنے والے ہو اور اللہ کے حکم سے لوگوں کو اللہ کی طرف بلانے والے، اور روشنی پھیلانے والے چراغ ہو
سورۃ الاحزاب
بڑی شان ہے اُس ذات کی جس کے ہاتھ میں ساری بادشاہی ہے، اور وہ ہر چیز پر پوری طرح قادر ہے۔ جس نے موت اور زندگی اس لئے پیدا کی تاکہ وہ تمہیں آزمائے کہ تم میں سے کون عمل میں زیادہ بہتر ہے، اور وہی ہے جو مکمل اِقتدار کا مالک، بہت بخشنے والا ہے،
سورۃ الملک
In Abu Dhabi, the UAE has completed the world’s largest strategic underground water reservoir beneath the golden dunes of the Liwa Desert.
Using advanced Aquifer Storage and Recovery (ASR) technology, the project injects high-quality desalinated water deep underground, protecting it from evaporation and external factors. The massive reserve consists of 315 strategic wells with a daily pumping capacity of up to 100 million liters.
With a total storage capacity of 26 billion liters (26 million cubic meters) of premium water, the reservoir can fully supply the Emirate of Abu Dhabi for 90 days in any emergency — a huge leap from the previous reserve that lasted only about two days.
The project, which cost AED 1.61 billion (approximately $435 million), represents a major milestone in water security and sustainability. It demonstrates the UAE’s forward-thinking leadership in building resilient infrastructure before crises occur.
I welcome Iran’s announcements that the Strait of Hormuz is completely open for all commercial vessels for the remainder of the ceasefire.
This a step in the right direction.
The @UN position remains clear: we need the full restoration of international navigational rights & freedoms in the Strait of Hormuz, respected by everyone.
I also hope that, together with the ceasefire, this measure will contribute to creating confidence between the parties and strengthen the ongoing dialogue facilitated by Pakistan.
Now that the Strait of Hormuz has fully returned to normal navigation…
A proud reminder:
The UAE stood tall and never bowed even an inch to the Iranian regime’s threats and bullying — exactly as His Highness Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed affirmed:
“We will never allow ourselves to be blackmailed by terrorists.”
Dignity. Strength. Sovereignty
🔴 Pakistan Foreign Office:
Repayment of deposits to the UAE is a routine financial matter according to previous bilateral agreements and has no link to current political events.
Our relations remain strong and the UAE is a trusted long-term partner 🇦🇪🇵🇰
