The event took place on Wednesday, 4 Rajab 1447 AH, corresponding to 24 December 2025, at the OIC General Secretariat in Jeddah.
The opening session included a speech delivered on behalf of His Excellency the Secretary-General, Mr Hissein Brahim Taha, by His Excellency Ambassador Samir Bakr, Assistant Secretary-General for Palestine Affairs. In his remarks, he emphasised the institutional significance of this celebration, highlighting its role in establishing a practical model of cooperation with specialised bodies—foremost among them the King Salman Global Academy for the Arabic Language. He noted that this partnership aims to focus efforts on capacity building and delivering practical training programs for beneficiaries from member states, ensuring that the Arabic language—the language of the Qur’an—receives the attention and importance it deserves.
At the conclusion of the event, the organising committee expressed its gratitude and appreciation to all attendees and participants for accepting the invitation and contributing to the success of this gathering, which highlights the status of the Arabic language and its role in strengthening ties among the peoples of the Islamic world.
