Conference on Omani Role in Promoting Ethics Issues Recommendations

Kuala Lumpur, 6 Nov (ONA) – The Ninth International Scientific Conference in Malaysia, titled "The Omani Role in Promoting Ethics Between Theory and Practice," concluded today by affirming in its recommendations the need to embody ethics and pride in identity as a tangible reality in human life.

The Conference also recommended that the message of ethics should be a practical, realistic message that primarily engages with theory only as a reminder. It stressed that ethics should not disregard heritage for the sake of the present based on discrimination, but rather should be based on the principles of affirmation, consolidation, and promotion by embodying ethics as a living reality. This is to be achieved while maintaining pride in their eternal Quranic reference and holding fast to an unwavering identity that resists surrendering to the dominant culture and does not shy away from highlighting its comprehensive and rich cultural and civilizational heritage in all matters of life.

The conference was organized over three days by the Omani Research and Studies Center at the International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM) in collaboration with the Ministry of Endowments and Religious Affairs (represented by the Iftaa Office). It included ten sessions where participants presented their insights on the themes related to the Omani role in promoting ethics between theory and practice through the embodiment of ethics as a tangible reality.
