MADINAH: The Islamic University of Madinah plans to establish a history museum to achieve the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 through promoting the heritage of Ƶ, Madinah and the Islamic University.
“This museum will contribute to strengthening the country’s cultural identity and promoting its national heritage, in addition to raising awareness of its value, improving the culture of museums and documenting the university’s history, which spans over half a century,” said the rector of the Islamic University of Madinah, Hatim bin Hassan Al-Marzouki.
