Dr. Nazir Mohamed Ayyad, Grand Mufti of Egypt and President of the General Secretariat for Fatwa Authorities Worldwide, received a delegation from Al-Azhar Alumni Association in Bangladesh, led by Qazi Shamsuddin. The visit aimed to strengthen academic and religious cooperation.

During the meeting, the Grand Mufti reaffirmed Dar al-Ifta’s commitment to supporting religious institutions abroad and to providing scholarly guidance and training that reinforce Al-Azhar’s centrist, moderate approach to Islam.

The delegation expressed its deep appreciation for Dar al-Ifta’s leading role in promoting balanced religious discourse and countering extremism. They also requested access to a selection of official fatwas and scholarly resources to support Islamic work and research efforts in Bangladesh.

At the conclusion of the visit, Mr. Hassan Masood — President of the Bangladeshi Academy for Research and representative of Bangladeshi students at Al-Azhar — extended a formal invitation to the Grand Mufti to attend the Academy’s inaugural conference, scheduled for August 1, under the title: “The Scholarly and Jurisprudential Contributions of Imam Ahmad Raza Khan.”
