Abu Dhabi, UAE, 19 December 2025: The Abrahamic Family House Centre organized a three-day Islamic Winter Camp for children and their families this month, as part of the activities of the Eminence Ahmed El-Tayeb Mosque.

Dr. Mahmoud Najah, Imam of the Eminence Ahmed El-Tayeb Mosque at the Abrahamic Family House Centre, stated that the programme aims to make purposeful use of the school holiday by offering educational and engaging activities that enhance children’s awareness, strengthen their national identity, and instil moral values.
