29th March 2012 - A fruitful experience of Islamic taste

The Socio/Religious activity organised by our college in collaboration with Mariam al Batool School resulted in a fruitful experience which left a positive impact on both our students and those of our hosts. Fr. Rector, Rev. Dr. Alan Scerri, was very keen to organise an activity of this kind

which would give a broader view of the Islamic religion to our students and, in fact it resulted a complete success, with our students being very happy and satisfied at the end.  Imam Mohammed El Sadi gave the students a very interesting all-round, informative talk about the values and truths which are common with both Christianity and Islam. After the session, St. Augustine and Mariam al Batool students spent time discussing common issues regarding their beliefs. This proved to be a very positive endeavour as most students praised the activity and seemed to be eager to participate in more activities of this kind in the coming years.

As the Religion teacher responsible for Form 4s, I must say that this activity has instilled a stronger consciousness about the cultural and religious reality which surrounds our students. The Islamic culture is present in every sector of modern society, and I believe that it is important to give to our students the opportunity to discover all about the truths which connect us. Undoubtedly, this will result in mutual respect and a better understanding of both Christian and Islamic beliefs and cultures.
