California:
Stanford University in the United States hosted His Excellency Sheikh Dr. Mohammed Al-Issa, Secretary-General of the Muslim World League (MWL) and Chairman of the Organization of Muslim Scholars, who delivered a distinguished lecture titled "Values in the Face of Contemporary Conflicts."

His Excellency engaged in a wide-ranging dialogue with a number of entrepreneurs and executives from Silicon Valley, discussing topics related to the digital economy, Islamic economic legislation, the ethics of artificial intelligence, charitable work, and the fight against poverty.

In his address, His Excellency focused on the complexities of ideological conflicts—both religious and intellectual—examining the dangers they pose and proposing practical solutions. He emphasized the fundamental distinction between natural and constructive diversity of thought, which is an inherent aspect of human existence, and the harmful ideological confrontations that fragment societies and undermine national unity. The importance of mutual understanding, peaceful coexistence, and constructive cooperation was underscored as essential responses to such challenges.

The lecture highlighted a range of prominent theories that influence ideological landscapes, particularly those that advocate the transformation of ideas into rigid and exclusionary dogmas. His Excellency warned of parallels in other domains, such as economic freedom, which can become entrenched beliefs that overshadow values of justice and solidarity. Nonetheless, he affirmed the legitimate right of states and institutions to pursue their national interests within ethical and legal boundaries.

Additionally, the lecture reviewed several global initiatives by the Muslim World League aimed at fostering peace and cohesion among societies and nations.

Furthermore, the lecture addressed the principles of international law and international humanitarian law, offering a concise overview and evaluating their application in the context of current global events.

He elaborated on key Islamic values, offering insights, proposed solutions, and practical models for implementation. He clarified key Islamic concepts, stressing the importance of understanding their legislative objectives and their ongoing relevance.

The lecture concluded with an engaging discussion session during which attendees explored key themes through questions, surveys, and open dialogue.

Following the lecture, His Excellency listened to presentations by a group of twenty-five undergraduate students from Stanford University, who showcased their end-of-semester projects. These projects focused on the global implementation of the Charter of Makkah.

These student projects are part of the "Establishing Muslim Life" program, inspired by the students’ visit to Makkah during the holy month of Ramadan and their performance of Umrah.

These student projects explored the provisions of the Charter of Makkah and their relevance to practical life in the Western world, including efforts to combat extremism, promote interfaith communication and dialogue, protect the climate and environment, and address other pressing global concerns.

A number of university academics, students, and distinguished guests attended the event, underscoring its significance and recommending that the lecture’s themes be expanded into a book to be published by the university.
A luncheon was subsequently held in honor of His Excellency, with deans, faculty members, and other distinguished attendees in attendance.
