Multi-religious Projects in the UAE

So...a topic which we need to address, since we have started talking more about "Religious Harmony", is projects related to just that. So today, that's what I'm going to be blogging about.

The first one I want to bring up is from the United Arab Emirates, which has already taken great initiatives to share its position in terms of religious tolerance. But they took it one step further, by making a multi-religious complex comprising of a whopping three religious places of worship for three Abrahamic religions (i.e. a family of religions that believe Abraham as their first prophet) a Muslim mosque, Imam Al-Tayeb Mosque; a Christian church, St. Francis Church; and a Jewish synagogue (Jewish place of worship), Moses bin Maimon Synagogue in Abu Dhabi, the capital of this behemoth. Although the proposed date was in 2022, although it maybe postpone.

The second one, unsurprisingly, is also located in Abu Dhabi the capital city of the UAE. It's at the Louvre Museum, Abu Dhabi. It is actually a room, similar to ones found in most common public spaces in the U.A.E for Muslims, where they pray, but instead for Non-Muslims. It is a room where tourist visiting the Louvre can feel more at home, by following their religious practices. The idea was actually initiated by the Department of Community Development, with help from Department of Culture and Tourism, and has actually been implemented since last year (2021). This is quite the project as innovative yet quiet as a needle in a hay stack. Anyways, that's all for me, Rithwik K for today. Bye, and have a good one!
