Grassroots champions of peace in Bahrain have been recognised for reinforcing the Kingdom’s global image as a beacon of interfaith harmony.
The Bahrain Society for Tolerance and Interfaith Coexistence, or Ta’ayush, earned praise from His Excellency Salman bin Isa bin Hindi Al-Mannai, Governor of Muharraq Governorate, for its work in nurturing dialogue and coexistence across communities.
Promoting dialogue
The recognition came during a visit by Ta’ayush officials led by Chairman Yousef Mohammed Bozboun, who presented the Governor with a copy of the Society’s newly released book, In the Hospitality of the King of Peace.
The publication documents the landmark visit to Bahrain by His Holiness Pope Francis and His Eminence the Grand Imam of Al-Azhar, underscoring the country’s growing role in fostering global interfaith dialogue.
H.E. Al-Mannai described the Society’s work as both “qualitative” and “distinguished,” noting that its programmes offer a local lens into Bahrain’s broader vision for peaceful coexistence and mutual respect.
He said the book offers clear testimony to His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa’s efforts to position Bahrain as a space of religious understanding and openness.
