Pope Francis and Grand Imam of al-Ahzar Sheikh Ahmed al-Tayeb kiss each other after signing a document on fighting extremism during an inter-religious meeting at the Founder’s Memorial Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.
The Catholic Pontiff recently ended a three-day tour to the Arabian Peninsula. Pope Francis, who has made inter-faith harmony the keystone of his papacy, ended his historic visit with an open-air mass for an estimated 170,000 Catholic residents of the UAE.
