He said that this unique project, the launch of which was announced at the House of Philosophy in Fujairah, is not the result of the moment or enthusiasm, but rather it is a long-term project that will extend to be published in five parts followed by corrections and developments, indicating that linking this philosophical dictionary to Fujairah is a link that expresses our belonging and pride in our identity. And our pioneering role in creating civilization and innovating philosophical statements.

Dr. Ahmed Al-Barqawi, Dean of the House of Philosophy, confirmed that the uniqueness of the Fujairah Philosophical Dictionary comes from being the first Arabic dictionary that includes a large group of the most important philosophers and those working in philosophy from most Arab countries. Being the first dictionary written with an Arab mentality, far from ideological baggage and tribal perceptions, it celebrates the Arab philosophical legacy that developed human reality intellectually, politically, economically and socially, and strengthened the spirit of continuous research, intellectual freedom and mental tolerance, while it included the most prominent philosophical schools and the most prominent figures from the dawn of Greek philosophy until today. this.
