Awqaf Ministry to start ‘Healing and Mercy’ campaign on Sunday

Doha: The Ministry of Endowments (Awqaf) and Islamic Affairs, represented by the Department of Religious Call and Guidance, is set to launch the ‘Healing and Mercy’ campaign on Sunday.

Organized in collaboration with Hamad Medical Corporation (HMC), the campaign will continue until Ramadan 18, and is carried out by Al Mutawa office in three hospitals across Qatar, namely Hamad Hospital, Al Wakra Hospital and Al Khor Hospital and is primarily directed towards visitors.

Director of the Department of Religious Call and Guidance, Malallah Abdul Rahman Al Jaber emphasized the importance of the constructive dialogue between Awqaf and the civil society organizations in the State of Qatar, especially since HMC is one of the major institutions that serves all community segments. He pointed out that this cooperation opens new prospects for Dawah to provide services during the Holy month of Ramadan.

Al Jaber underscored the ministry’s keenness to carry out programs and activities to reach out to all individuals in their places and health facilities to propagate the culture of Sharia and tenets of the Holy Qur’an among them. He indicated that events that are due to be held at the three hospitals include a large number of lessons and lectures, along with the distribution of Ruqyah booklets and copies of the Holy Qur’an for patients in state health institutions.

The campaign seeks to remind patients and the general audience of the virtues of Ramadan and reflection in the Holy Qur’an which dramatically help heal human souls and hearts, Al Jaber highlighted. Al Jaber stated that the Department of Religious Call and Guidance strives to spotlight the bright image of the Islamic religion.
