The chancellor of Al-Mustafa International University emphasized the need to strengthen the ties between Qom and Najaf Ashraf Seminary, and emphasized,” Despite the defeat of the enemies of Islam in the battlefields, there is a severe cultural and hybrid war that targets Muslim young men and women. Our task today is much heavier than in the past in this intellectual and cognitive war.”

Referring to the provision of more than 160 majors and orientations at different levels of study in Al-Mustafa International University and nearly eighty specialized courses in Qom Seminary, he further noted,” Based on the educational transformation plan of Al-Mustafa University, these disciplines and orientations will increase to more than 400; we will also witness such progress in Qom Seminary.”
