“The relationship between ‘renewal’ of Islam and its ‘viability’ as a living religion that offers goodness to all humanity is a steady one. They are like the two sides of one and the same coin, being quite inseparable and without which the coin becomes worthless.”

“The whole world views Al-Azhar and its affiliates with appreciation and respect, and it largely counts on them to promote the message of coexistence, love and peace.”

“Al-Azhar as a university and as a mosque has made great strides on the path of epistemological and cultural progress and the delivery of its tolerant message, which is the message of moderation, coexistence and peace, at the local, regional and global levels.”

“The East, in terms of religions and civilizations, has no problem with the West, considering the history of eastern civilizations and their consistent positions in respecting religion and science, whatever their home and whoever their proponent may be.”

“The reality of universal difference means that if Allah had so willed to make humanity follow one religion, belong to one race, and speak one and the same language, He would have done so. Yet, He has willed it the other way around, meaning that people should be different in religions, race and language.”

“Al-Azhar continues to seek cooperation in the field of Da‘wah (Missionary) to consolidate the philosophy of coexistence, revive dialogue, and respect the beliefs of others.”

“The Muslims should be aware that the law of renewal or revival is a purely Qur'anic law.”

“Historical records prove that, with renewal, Islam has remained a religion capable of achieving people's interests and attracting them through an optimal model in conduct and transactions, regardless of their race, religion or belief.

Al-Azhar undertakes the mission of disseminating the values of tolerance, dialogue and acceptance of the other, as it forms the essence of the message of our Islamic religion and its tolerant law, and even the essence of all heavenly religions.”
