In addition to establishing "Salam Center for Countering Extremism", which is a think-tank dedicated to treating extremist ideologies and terrorism, Dr. Negm also pointed out that Egypt's Dar al-Ifta, in its distinguished experience over the past years, has been able to utilize all modern technological means and social media platforms to dismantle extremist ideology and deliver its message to as many people as possible, especially the youth in various countries around the world and in different languages.

"We launched the "Fatwa Pro" application, which is a multilingual electronic application created to communicate with Muslim communities, especially in the West," Dr. Negm added. It is the first secure online platform that represents a regulated authentic reference on religious knowledge for Muslims in the West, providing them with a shelter to safeguard against the waves of extremism, deviation, and atheism.
