“It is an honor for me to be here!” — UAE official astonished by the Center for Islamic Civilization in Tashkent!

Hamid Al Zaabi, Director-General of the Executive office of the Anti-Money Laundering and Countering the Financing of Terrorism of the United Arab Emirates:

It is a great honor for me to be here. The Center for Islamic Civilization is a unique place that unites different eras and cultures within itself. This site harmoniously reflects the history of Islam and the heritage of great civilizations while opening the way to the future through modern science and culture.

 

I was deeply impressed by this Center. I hope to participate in its official opening ceremony and to contribute to the further development of this remarkable project.

 

Established at the initiative of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan, this Center holds enormous significance not only historically but also culturally. Here, the spirit of past centuries, the cultural diversity of nations, and their scientific achievements are beautifully intertwined.

 

Through its conference hall, exhibitions, and gatherings, the Center vividly expresses a modern interpretation of Islamic enlightenment and culture. I intend to continue cooperation with this Center and to visit it again in the future.

 

I extend my gratitude to everyone who took part in this great endeavor.
