The Ministry of Awqaf and Islamic Affairs’ General Directorate of Endowments (AWQAF) and the Qatar Postal Services Company (Qatar Post) have recently announced the release of a new stamp issue consisting of 10 designs. This release commemorates the 100th anniversary of the endowment of Abdullah bin Saad. The Director-General of the General Directorate of Endowments, Eng. Hassan Abdullah Al Marzouqi, mentioned that Abdullah bin Saad’s endowment is one of the oldest in Qatar, showcasing vintage Qatari endowments.

During a press conference, Al Marzouqi explained that the 100-year-old endowment has evolved over time to include a variety of villas, traditional houses, and modern residential buildings with annexes in the Bin Mahmoud area. These properties have also led to the development of several investment projects. The revenue generated from this endowment is utilized to provide sustainable support for religious work, the Noble Quran, mosques, orphanages, healthcare, and students, showcasing the significant impact that the endowment has on society.

Chairman and Managing Director of Qatar Post, Faleh bin Mohammed Al Naemi, highlighted that this collaborative effort will result in the issuance of 50,000 commemorative stamps in sets of 5,000, with each set consisting of ten QR2 stamps. The stamp designs will feature nine prominent endowment architectural landmarks in Qatar, including the General Directorate of Endowments building and the Sheikh Abdulla Bin Zaid Al Mahmoud Islamic Cultural Center, among others. This initiative aims to celebrate and honor the historical significance of these endowments within the Qatari community.

The release of these commemorative stamps is not only a tribute to the legacy of Abdullah bin Saad’s endowment but also serves as a reminder of the rich heritage and cultural significance of endowments in Qatar. The stamps showcase the architectural landmarks that have been developed as a result of this endowment, highlighting the contributions it has made to society through its support for various religious, educational, and social initiatives. This initiative aims to raise awareness about the importance of endowments and their role in shaping the community and preserving cultural heritage.

The collaboration between the Ministry of Awqaf and Islamic Affairs’ General Directorate of Endowments and Qatar Post reflects a commitment to preserving and promoting the cultural heritage of Qatar through initiatives such as the issuance of commemorative stamps. By commemorating the 100th anniversary of Abdullah bin Saad’s endowment, the organizations are not only honoring a significant historical event but also celebrating the enduring legacy of endowments in Qatar. This collaboration showcases the importance of recognizing and preserving the cultural heritage of the country through innovative and meaningful initiatives like this stamp issue.

The release of the 10-design stamp issue celebrating the 100th anniversary of Abdullah bin Saad’s endowment is a fitting tribute to the enduring legacy of this historical event. The designs showcase the architectural landmarks that have been developed as a result of this endowment, providing a glimpse into the rich heritage and cultural significance of endowments in Qatar. Through this initiative, the Ministry of Awqaf and Islamic Affairs’ General Directorate of Endowments and Qatar Post aim to raise awareness about the importance of endowments and their role in shaping the community and preserving cultural heritage.
