Although Uzbekistan and Saudi Arabia are geographically far apart, both countries are connected by common history, religious and educational values, and harmonious cultural ties. It should be said that the multifaceted cooperation of these two countries is expanding year by year and is reaching a new level. In this sense, the visit of the delegation of the Center of Islamic Civilization in Uzbekistan under the Cabinet of Ministers to Saudi Arabia can be a proof of our words.
In the delegation headed by Firdavs Abdukholikov, director of the Center for Islamic civilization in Uzbekistan under the Cabinet of ministers, director of Imam Bukhari International Research Center Sh. Ziyadov, Deputy Chairman of the Office of Muslims of Uzbekistan Z. Eshankulov, the rector of the School of Hadith Science Barot Amonov, it is envisaged that the experience of Saudi Arabia will be studied in enriching the exposition of the Museum of the Center for Islamic civilization in Uzbekistan with new content.
The delegation was welcomed by Badr at Talakhi and Abdu Fahid, heads of the international relations department of the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah. It should be noted that the efforts of both countries towards the enlightenment of the holy religion of Islam, the promotion of its peace-loving ideas, and the research of the heritage of ancestors are compatible. The members of the delegation informed that the world experience is being studied in order to enrich the content of the Center of Islamic Civilization in Uzbekistan, which is being created at the initiative of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan, Shavkat Mirziyoyev, in order to ensure the implementation of the tasks set by the head of state. In turn, the hosts shared their best experiences in this direction.
The visit to the Diriyah historical complex in Riyadh was especially important in the exchange of experiences. This place is especially honored as the destination of the first kingdom of Saudi Arabia. In addition to tourism, it has many facilities for scientific researchers. The entire ancient town has become a complex that acquires a unified composition. The use of various lights and the use of “3D” technologies are of particular note. It was noted that the experience of the complex can be applied to many historical places and destinations in Uzbekistan.
The open-air museum is a technology that can display the symbols of civilization in an innovative way. Simply put, it’s called “reviving history.” The same aspects were emphasized during the meeting with British public figure Ahmad Salim, who was ranked among the “500 leading Muslims of the world”.
– I welcome President Shavkat Mirziyoyev’s initiative to create a center in your country. This initiative is also very important for the entire Islamic world. I was invited to the congress held in Tashkent and Samarkand in August. I gladly accepted this offer. In the future, we discussed some issues of cooperation related to displaying the exhibits displayed at the exposition not only in the center itself, but also at other international exhibitions as a “museum in motion”. “We will revive the rich history through many media products and documentaries,” said Ahmad Salim.
The visit of the delegation of the Center of Islamic Civilization in Uzbekistan to Saudi Arabia continues.
