Dr. Muhammad Othman Al -Khasht, the Islamic thinker and former president of Cairo University, chaired a session entitled: & quot; Citizenship in the contemporary reality .. The controversy of rooting and modernization & quot;, within the activities of the Citizenship, Identity Conference and the values ​​of coexistence, organized by the Mohammed bin Zayed University of Humanities in Abu Dhabi, in the presence and participation of the scholar Abdullah bin Bey, the head of the Emirates Forensic Fatwa Council, and the Emirati thinker Dr. Khalifa Director of Mohammed bin Zayed University for Humanities, and a group of scientists, thinkers and institution leaders from all over the world. Among the attendance of the session is Dr. Nazir Ayyad, the Mufti of the Egyptian Diyar, who conducted an intervention at the end of the lecture. The session was also witnessed Universities. On the transcendence of firm diodes such as: heritage and modernity, reason and transmission, religious and worldly, identity and universality, originality and contemporary, explaining that these dualities are no longer just theoretical issues, but rather turned into sharp divisions in intellectual references, hindering the construction of a new philosophical mind capable of interacting with the challenges of the times. Establishing a renewed intellectual project that rebuilds intellectual and religious reference on rational, human and moral foundations, calling for the activation of the critical mind in dealing with heritage, and stressing that Arab thought will not exceed its crises unless it comes out of itself from the families of the duets and establishes a new complex mind that leads to human understanding, and establishes a new religious era that is open, rational, and multiple. Al -Khasht, that this transformation is inspired by the concept of & quot; interactive dialectical transgression & quot, where the total negation and complete cancellation does not mean as it does not mean success, but rather the restoration of the basic elements between the two extremes in a new, more comprehensive compound and form that exceeds traditional polarizations, with clear discrimination between the sacred and human, between religious and sectarian, and editing texts from the authority of interpretation The rigid. Arab thought will not advance as long as we reproduce the same intellectual diodes, stressing the importance of the vicious dialectical style that transcends the duets to establish a new reference more able to interact with the reality of diversity and pluralism, and to build civil societies that respect freedoms and reject tyranny. A new criticism that opens up to man and history and paves the way for a new religious era based on rationality, openness, and pluralism, in a manner that guarantees the firmness of the national state and enhancing the values ​​of citizenship and coexistence in the Arab world. Heritage with all that it carries should be seen in its context, position and time of writing it and in accordance with the circumstances and events, especially since this heritage carries a lot and many within it, stressing the need to differentiate between religion as a revelation that God Almighty has revealed to him, and between those affiliated with it, it is wrong and injustice that we judge the debt with the behavior of some of its associates. This comes as an agreement with what was previously confirmed by Dr. Al -Khasht in his book & quot; towards establishing a new religious era & quot; In the fifth chapter under the title & quot; Renewal of Muslims, not Islam & quot;
