| 520 | |a On 9 September 2005 a select group of scholars and intellectuals gathered in Makkah al-Mukarrammah (the full name of the holy city of Mecca) at the invitation of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Abdullah Bin Abdul Aziz Al-Saud. The objective of this “Preparatory Forum of Eminent Muslim Scholars” was clearly defined: to formulate, over three days of intense discussions in the shadow of the Kaabah Sharif, a new vision for the Organization of Islamic Conference, the world body of the Islamic ummah. The key word of the new vision was also clearly defined: reform. M.J. Akbar was the only Indian invited to the forum. He presented these ideas, in which he outlined the response to the American neocon onslaught against Islam and Muslims, as well as the real challenges facing the Muslim world in the 21st century: poverty, knowledge and equality. | ||
