The Charter of African Ulema (Muslim scholars) was officially launched during the 5th regular session of the Higher Council of the Mohammed VI Foundation for African Ulema. The event, which took place on December 6 and 7, unfolded in the margins of the conference held in Fes.
The launch ceremony, held at the library of the Al Qarawiyyin Mosque in Fez, was attended by key figures, including the Secretary-General of the Higher Council of Ulema, Mohamed Yessef, the Secretary-General of the Rabita Mohammadia of Ulema, Ahmed Abbadi, and the Secretary-General of the Higher Council of the Mohammed VI Foundation for African Ulema, Mohamed Rifki.
This charter serves as a comprehensive reference document, defining the doctrinal path and aligning with the objectives of the Scholars within the Foundation. Functioning as a doctrinal guide, this charter becomes a valuable resource supporting the scientific endeavors of the Mohammed VI Foundation for African Scholars. Its purpose is to safeguard the Scholars and fulfill the Foundation’s overarching objectives.
The Foundation envisions the Charter of African Ulema, whose formulation was decided during the 3 rd regular session of the Higher Council in December 2019, as a doctrinal document and a fundamental pillar for the collective action of African Scholars. The aim is to achieve the noble goals set by Commander of the Faithful, HM King Mohammed VI.
Considered a significant communication tool among Ulema and a major reference in the institution’s history, the charter is built upon five balanced and complementary pillars. Its foundational principle is to anchor and consolidate common religious aspects concerning beliefs, doctrines, and behaviors across the African continent.
