RIYADH: The head of the Muslim World League and chairman of the Association of Muslim Scholars inaugurated the Global Council for Scientific Miracles in the Holy Qur’an and Sunnah on Sunday.
MWL Secretary-General Sheikh Dr. Mohammed bin Abdulkarim Al-Issa took part in the event as part of an official visit to Malaysia.
During his trip to Kuala Lumpur, he also presided over the closing ceremony of the Science and Faith program and competition.
Both events were attended by international scholars, government ministers, and senior university figures.
Malaysia hosted the two international initiatives as part of its partnership with the MWL in supporting Islamic and educational programs.
This cooperation was further strengthened through the signing of seven agreements between the MWL and a number of Malaysian governmental and private institutions, including universities, research centres, and academic bodies.
The newly established council is intended to advance scholarly engagement with the concept of scientific reflection in the Holy Qur’an and Sunnah, while the Science and Faith program and competition aims to promote research and intellectual exchange in areas linking scientific study with Islamic teachings.
The closing ceremony featured a visual presentation outlining the program’s activities and objectives, alongside the announcement of the Muslim World League’s international awards.
