Sharjah Ruler: Identity key to society, heritage a national duty
His Highness explained that the Arabic word "Zubarah" refers to "building," and describes stones stacked atop one another. He urged citizens to contribute positively to their homeland, uphold their religious and societal duties, and maintain national unity. Additionally, he advised the public to steer clear of unnecessary disputes on social media, calling for responsible digital engagement. Sharjah Ruler explains meaning of 'Al Zubarah' on live broadcast His Highness the Ruler of Sharjah, shared an insightful explanation of the word 'Al Zubarah' during a telephone interview on the "Direct Line" programme, broadcast on Sharjah Broadcasting Authority. Speaking with media personality Mohammed Hassan Khalaf, Director General of the Authority, His Highness responded to a public inquiry about the term. 'Someone asked about the meaning of the word 'Al Zubarah', so I would like to clarify that in Arabic, 'Al Zubarah' means 'building.' Stones that are stacked on top of each other are referred to as 'Zabarah.' For example, the phrase 'Zabar Al Bi'r' means 'to place a stone inside (the well).'' Identity is the Foundation of Community Formation His Highness the Ruler of Sharjah added: "We care about heritage, whether tangible, such as antiquities; or intangible things like chants, songs, music, and traditional dance. People will only be able to preserve their heritage through practice. We want to preserve this heritage in the hearts of our children and not allow them to forget it. This can only be achieved through practice, which children will witness and from which they will gain this knowledge. This practice is an educational process, and identity is the foundation of society. A society without identity has no roots. God willing, we will reach a stage where every individual will be responsible for protecting their community—starting with preserving and defending the environment, as well as protecting society from gossip, vices, abominations, and anything foreign. The individual's responsibility begins at home, extends to the neighbourhood in which they live, and reaches the country and the nation." Giving back to the nation His Highness Sheikh Dr Sultan bin Muhammad Al Qasimi, Supreme Council Member and Ruler of Sharjah, concluded his speech with fatherly advice to his children, saying: "We tell our sons and daughters that this society is a trust, so give yourselves the opportunity to give back to the nation, starting with kind words and avoiding bad language." Stop the social media squabbling, elevate yourselves, don't be imitators, and protect your country, from which your fathers came and in whose soil your grandfathers are buried. God willing, all of our future generations will be aware of their religious, national, and societal responsibilities.
