Sheikh Dr. Muhammad Al-Issa, Secretary-General of the Makkah-based Muslim World League (MWL) and Chairman of the Association of Muslim Scholars, has inaugurated the "Council of Southeast Asian Scholars" in Kuala Lumpur. The ceremony was held under the patronage of Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim, with prominent scholars and muftis from ASEAN countries in attendance. This new council represents the first comprehensive Islamic council in the Southeast Asian region, featuring senior muftis and scholars. It also marks the first among the "regional scholarly councils" established globally by the MWL. The creation of the council is a direct outcome of the "Southeast Asian Scholars Conference," which took place in Kuala Lumpur on June 30, 2022, and received endorsement from the Prime Minister of Malaysia.
