Hajj Season: International Scholarly Gathering for Humanitarian Studies

This year, the Symposium's sessions will tackle for example but not limited how to make use of science and technology to serve Islam, as well as collective intelligence's contributions to innovation and decision making. The Symposium will witness the participation of the molecular biologist, Prof. Rana Dajani, Dr. Winai Dahlan, Director of the Halal Science Center at Chulalongkorn University, Thailand, Dr. Majid Al-Fayyad, CEO of King Fahad Specialized Hospital and Research Center, Dr. Abdul Rahman Al- Kheraigi, Media Affairs Advisor at the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah, and Dr. Abdullah Al-Maatouq, Assistant Professor at Massachusetts Institute.

The Ministry of Hajj and Umrah believes that the outcomes of the Symposium will have positive impacts on the Islamic and international communities. The outcomes may create a favorable environment to perform Hajj with complete satisfaction, and enhance the values of peace, tolerance, understanding, peaceful coexistence and mutual respect.

Dr. Tawfiq Al-Rabiah, Minister of Hajj and Umrah, visited 13 Islamic countries during the first half of 2023, where he met with officials in religious institutions and Islamic thinkers. The meetings included constructive discussions about serving the guests of Allah and how to upgrade the procedures of Hajj and Umrah, which are part of the target outcomes of the Symposium.
