Awqaf Ministry to launch fifth season of Ummah Seminar Tuesday

The Ministry of Endowments (Awqaf) and Islamic Affairs will commence the fifth season of its intellectual and cultural program, the Ummah Seminar, on Tuesday. The opening session at the Imam Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab Mosque will delve into the relationship between science and faith within Islamic thought. The seminar, under the theme "Science and Faith: Foundations of Building and Pillars of Advancement," will convene academics, researchers, and Islamic preachers to discuss the methodological foundations for merging science and faith.

Director of Research and Islamic Studies Sheikh Dr. Ahmed bin Mohammed Al-Thani emphasized the initiative's aim to enhance intellectual awareness and foster scholarly dialogue, aligning with the ministry's 2025-2030 strategic goals of human development, a moderate Islamic identity, and boosting societal awareness. The seminar, launched in 2022, is held quarterly and contributes to enriching public discourse, promoting academic dialogue, and strengthening the relationship between science and faith as vital components of societal progress.
