Abstract

The OIC (Organization of Islamic Cooperation) is an international organization comprised of 57 Muslim states. It is the second largest multinational organization after the United Nations. The OIC is basically the mouthpiece of the Muslim world and it highlights the interests of the Muslim community in line with global tranquility. Pakistan not only played an important role in the formation of this organization but, as a sole nuclear power and as a leader, has actively fought the case of the Muslim world from the platform of this organization since its inception. This research article mainly endeavors to unearth Pakistan’s efforts, particularly in the OIC, to resolve various issues plaguing the Muslim world like Kashmir, Palestine and Afghanistan. The desk research method was employed to assess whether Pakistan is successful in fulfilling one of its key foreign policy objective by playing an efficient role in solving the aforementioned conflicts prevailing in the Muslim world.

Keywords: Pakistan, OIC, Muslim World, Conflicts, Foreign Policy.
