Dr Mohammad Matar Al Ka’abi, chairman of the Abu Dhabi’s General Authority of Islamic Affairs and Endowments, said that UAE Fatwa Council will ensure alignment of fatwas (Islamic rulings) in the country and ensures preaching of moderate Islam.

“Unifying and regulating fatwa practices in the UAE will prevent personal or improvised Fatwas and rebut extremist and terrorist Fatwas, in keeping with the leading role played by the UAE in combating terrorism and radicalisation,” said Dr Al Ka’abi.
