The visit was an occasion to welcome the delegation to the &#8216;Dar Al-Muwahhidun Al-Druze,&#8221; which endorses dialogue and convergence between all, and is the mediation place for caring and connecting between members of all sects. He said: &#8220;This is our history since our Arab Muslim ancestors came to this country, to protect the Arab-Islamic frontiers since the eighth century AD and afterwards, on a defensive mission, and they made many sacrifices, and our message was and still is communication, openness, and steadfastness in the land.&#8221; Addressing the delegation, Abil-Miuna continued, &#8220;Welcome to this country, which is a model of pluralism and diversity in unity, and we have called it citizenship that embraces diversity, and this is our message: respect for citizenship and upbringing on its values, and we have participated in carrying this message to the forums, especially since the monotheists do not have any factional projects at the national or religious level, but rather their goal is the homeland and the people.&#8217;
