The Kuwaiti Embassy in Algeria said in a statement that Ambassador Boushiba praised the status of the Great Mosque of Algiers and its religious and cultural role during his meeting with Sheikh Al-Qasmi. The statement clarified that the meeting provided an opportunity to discuss ways to strengthen bilateral religious cooperation and deepen ties between institutions affiliated with the mosque, notably the Center for Research in Religious Sciences, the Center for Dialogue among Civilizations, and the National Higher School of Islamic Sciences “Dar Al-Quran,” with Islamic bodies in the State of Kuwait. It noted that both sides expressed their aspiration to exchange official visits and coordinate consultations in areas of mutual interest, and commended the Great Mosque of Algiers for its role as a beacon promoting values of moderation and centrism and combating extremist and hateful rhetoric.
