Deputy Chairman of the Minhaj University Lahore (MUL) Dr Hussain Mohi-ud-Din Qadri has said when the Islamic world was at the pinnacle of its glory, its rulers used to build libraries instead of palaces and its scholars spent most of their time in book reading and knowledge creation. He said that though mushroom growth of information and communication technologies has had its own advantages, the importance of the book reading has remained intact. He said that MUL is trying to revive the academic culture and values of our forefathers.
