INVITED LECTURE: INTERNATIONAL ACADEMIC COLLABORATION BY AVICENNA STUDIENWERK SCHOLARSHIP, GERMANY
An invited lecture organized by the Avicenna Studienwerk Scholarship, Germany, was successfully held, featuring the active participation of 22 young German Muslim Students who are recipients of the scholarship.
The lecture, titled "Astronomy in the Quran: Sky Influence on Daily Life," featured insightful commentary on several Quranic verses related to celestial bodies, cosmic phenomena, and the scientific signs reflecting the greatness of astronomy. In addition to exploring these Quranic and scientific themes, the session highlighted practical applications of astronomy in daily life and showcased the ongoing development of astronomical research activities at UniSZA. This exposure offered participants from different study backgrounds a valuable opportunity to broaden their horizons, discover new perspectives, and interest in astronomy.
As a gesture of deep appreciation for his time and invaluable contributions, the Avicenna Scholarship Awardees honoured the guest speaker, Assoc. Prof. Ts. Dr. Roslan Bin Umar, by planting a dedicated tree in his name through Planet Tree in the Bayerischer Zukunftswald (Alzenau, Bavaria, Germany). Hopefully, this program will benefit the students, and there will be more collaborative programs in the future.
