The meeting was fruitful, during which they discussed a number of future activities between the aforementioned institute and the Iraqi studies and research centers.
It is mentioned that the Pontifical Institute specializes in Islamic studies, knowing that the approved sources on this specialization are not available or are unknown, and most of the reliance is on specific sources that represent the orientalist vision of the event, which calls for the help of scientific institutions to contribute to changing this vision and to show the tolerance of Islam and its call for peaceful coexistence Those electronic libraries were an introduction to correcting them.
