The Senior Advisor to Egypt’s Mufti, Secretary-General for the General Secretariat for Fatwa Authorities Worldwide, Dr. Ibrahim Negm, left for USA on Monday to participate in Islam Awareness Week dedicated to raising awareness about Islam.

The visit stems from the commitment of Egypt’s Dar al-Ifta and the General Secretariat for Fatwa Authorities Worldwide to present the true tolerant and moderate image of Islam, change the stereotypes about Islam and Muslims and encounter Islamophobia.

Before departure, Dr. Negm said that during his participation, he will deliver lectures on Islam at the universities, schools, and churches in US with the aim of responding to the prevailing hate speech against Islam and Muslims in the West.
