Doha, Qatar: The Sheikh Abdulla Bin Zaid Al Mahmoud Islamic Cultural Center, of the Ministry of Awqaf and Islamic Affairs, organised a series of religious lectures for non-Arabic-speaking Muslim communities.

These lectures are part of the center’s ongoing programmes to promote religious awareness and Islamic values among various communities in the country, and the events witnessed wide participation and notable engagement.

In this context, a lecture in English was held at Sheikh Hamad Bin Jassim Bin Jaber Al-Thani Mosque in The Pearl area, attended by more than 80 members of the community.

The preacher addressed the topic of having good thoughts about Allah, emphasising that this virtue is one of the greatest doors to hope, as it motivates Muslims to perform righteous deeds in pursuit of Allah’s mercy, without falling into complacency or arrogance, but rather combining hope with action and reliance on Allah’s forgiveness.

At the center’s lecture hall, two additional lectures were held. The first was for the Ethiopian community in Amharic, delivered by preacher Waheeb Kurto on love of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). He stressed that loving the Prophet is both a legal and heartfelt obligation, manifested in following his Sunnah and emulating his character. He noted that the Prophet (peace be upon him) sacrificed dearly to guide humanity, and our love for him is shown through our behaviour, speech, and actions.
