Mufti Mubajje in Iran for International Islamic Conference

His Eminence Dr. Sheikh Shaban Ramadhan Mubajje, the Mufti of Uganda, is in Tehran, Iran as a facilitator in the prestigious international conference themed Holy Qur’an & International Diplomacy.

The high-level gathering has attracted scholars, diplomats, and religious leaders from over 30 countries, including the United Arab Emirates, Turkey, Azerbaijan, Russia, Malaysia, Algeria, Tunisia, and Bosnia.

The conference aims to explore the role of the Holy Qur’an in shaping international relations, fostering diplomacy, and addressing global challenges through Islamic principles.

It provides a platform for dialogue on how Qur’anic teachings can contribute to peacebuilding, conflict resolution, and interfaith cooperation in an increasingly complex world.

Mufti Mubaje is accompanied by Hon. Counsel Haj Muhammad Ali Aluma, the Deputy Secretary General in charge of Finance and Administration at the Uganda Muslim Supreme Council (UMSC).

As a respected Islamic leader with a long history of advocating for unity and development, Mufti Mubaje’s presence at the conference underscores Uganda’s commitment to international religious diplomacy and cooperation.

During the sessions, Mufti Mubaje is expected to share insights on Uganda’s experience in promoting interfaith dialogue and peaceful coexistence among diverse religious communities.

Over the years, he has played a key role in fostering unity within Uganda’s Muslim community and strengthening relations with other religious groups through the Inter-Religious Council of Uganda and other initiatives.

His participation in the conference also reflects Uganda’s growing involvement in global Islamic affairs. In recent years, Ugandan Muslim leaders have engaged in discussions on key religious and developmental issues, including efforts to translate the Holy Qur’an into local languages to enhance accessibility and understanding among Ugandan Muslims.

The Tehran conference is set to conclude with recommendations on how Islamic teachings can be integrated into diplomatic practices worldwide. 

As a recognized voice in African Islamic leadership, Mufti Mubaje’s contributions are expected to add valuable perspectives to these discussions.
