Sustainability of Values
For his part, His Excellency Dr. Omar Habtoor Al-Darei said that the Majlis sessions are an extension of the Prophet’s Sunnah, the Arab gatherings, and the Emirati Sunnah, as they are the most important forums for meeting and discussing all topics, and the best to speak and remind of is the Holy Qur’an. The most important elements of sustainability are the sustainability of the values derived from the Holy Qur’an, His Excellency said, appreciating the session that discusses an important topic that humans need in all the details of their day to achieve positive results through the journey of life, His Excellency said.
Human Values
For his part, His Excellency Dr. Khalifa Al Dhaheri said that the Holy Qur’an is distinguished by being valid for all times and places, as it is compatible with all minds and includes human values that every single human agrees upon. The one who carefully navigates through the pages of the Holy Qur’an finds that principles, values and morals are fundamental issues, as values are firmly established in its chapters and verses speaking of mercy, faith knowledge and wisdom, His Excellency said.
Peace, Citizenship Values
For her part, Dr. Maria Al-Hatali spoke about the values of peace and citizenship, noting that the value of peace is great and perhaps the greatest. The Holy Qur’an deals with this value precisely and objectively, taking into account the cultural change that occurs over time, as peace begins with family peace and extends to society then reaches the whole world. The value of citizenship is the most beautiful, as a person is a partner of their country in body and soul, Dr. Maria added..
