November 17 Named Int’l Day of Commemoration of Muslim Communities
The muslimsaroundtheworld.com website announced the launch of a unique global media initiative to designate November 17 of each year as the International Day of Commemoration of Muslim Communities Living in Non-Muslim Countries, in recognition of their pivotal role as a cultural and human bridge between the Islamic Ummah and the rest of the world.
The choice of the date was announced to coincide with the anniversary of the launch of the website on November 17, 2019.
Since its inception, the website has pursued its mission to introduce Muslim communities, explain their role in serving Islamic and human values, highlight their contribution to progress and development, and explain their challenges in preserving their identity and building bridges of understanding between cultures.
According to the website, the media initiative will include a full year of intensive media coverage of the activities of Muslim communities and their accompanying events, introductions to Islamic institutions, online seminars, field interviews and analytical reports that will focus on the experiences of Muslims in the West, Asia, Africa and Latin America.
According to the website, this initiative that originated from an independent media effort welcomes institutional cooperation and global partnerships, and is pursued within the framework of a vision that seeks to strengthen awareness of the value of Muslim communities and their role in promoting the image of Islam as a religion of morality, humanity and coexistence.
