State Minister of Immigration and Egyptian Expatriates, Ambassador Nabela Makram pointed out that the new initiative works towards the ministry's vision and goals of enhancing the communication between Egyptian expatriates and al-Azhar scholars and by spreading the correct more moderate concepts of Islam. Expatriates can send their inquiries and questions on the "Ask al-Azhar" tab after registering on the following link: http://expats.emigration.gov.eg/Registration/register, Makram said, noting that experts in different areas of Islam will be ready to answer questions promptly.
