MCE Launches Global Ramadan Missions Across Continents

For the second consecutive year, as part of fulfilling its commitment to fostering peace and propagating the values of dialogue, tolerance, and coexistence, the Muslim Council of Elders, led by Dr. Ahmed Al-Tayeb, Grand Imam of Al-Azhar, has deployed numerous religious convoys across the globe.These initiatives during the holy month of Ramadan aim to promote moderation, balance, and enlightened Islamic thought.

These convoys involved over 32 Quran reciters and preachers who were sent to nine countries including Spain, Italy, Germany, Kazakhstan, Russia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Pakistan, and the United States. 

Their responsibilities include leading prayers, reciting the Holy Quran, and conducting a range of lectures, sermons, and religious seminars. The objective is to strengthen connections with Muslims worldwide, enhance their religious awareness, encourage their positive integration within their societies, and shield them from extremist ideologies and the threats posed by violent and terrorist groups.
