An article about the Islamic Civilization Center in Uzbekistan has been published in the Omani newspaper At-Takvin

In “At-Takween” (Al Takween Magazine), a prestigious cultural and educational publication of the Sultanate of Oman, an article dedicated to the activities of the Islamic Civilization Center in Uzbekistan and its international significance has been published.

The publication reports that the Embassy of the Republic of Uzbekistan in the Sultanate of Oman is planning to organize a presentation of the Islamic Civilization Center. The event, titled “Cultural ties between Uzbekistan and Oman”, is scheduled to take place in the lecture hall of the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque.

The article highlights Uzbekistan’s profound Islamic heritage, its lasting contribution to the development of world civilization, and the country’s distinguished place in the history of science and culture. It also notes the “Abu Rayhan Beruni Library”, established with the support of the Sultanate of Oman, as a prime example of the historical and cultural cooperation between the two countries.

The publication recognizes the Islamic Civilization Center in Uzbekistan, located next to the Hazrati Imam Complex in Tashkent, as one of the largest cultural, educational and scientific institutions in Central Asia and the Islamic world. Particular attention is given to the Center’s mission of restoring historical memory, collecting and digitizing rare manuscripts, advancing scientific research, and strengthening international cultural dialogue.

In addition, the article highlights the Center’s Guinness World Record recognition as the world’s largest Islamic civilization museum in terms of exhibition space, and that it houses the Mushaf of Caliph Uthman ibn Affan (may Allah be pleased with him) along with other rare historical manuscripts of the Holy Quran.

The article also notes the Center’s modern architectural design, its advanced digital library, and its scientific and educational capabilities as important aspects that demonstrate its international significance.

The publication of this article in an Omani cultural and educational outlet serves to bring Uzbekistan’s profound Islamic heritage and the activities of the Islamic Civilization Center to an international audience, as well as to further strengthen cultural and humanitarian ties between Uzbekistan and Oman.
