The College of Engineering at the University of Basrah—represented by the Women’s Affairs Unit, in collaboration with the Continuing Education Unit—held an awareness lecture titled "In the Footsteps of Al-Zahra (peace be upon her): A Radiance of Chastity and a Call to Build in an Era of Challenges." The event was held under the patronage of the President of the University of Basrah, Prof. Dr. Aqeel Fadhil Al-Dahan, and under the supervision of the Dean of the College of Engineering, Prof. Dr. Mufid Turki Rashid.

The lecture was delivered by Dr. Zainab Ghadir Al-Quraini, a specialist in Quranic and Hadith studies. She explored the life of Lady Fatimah Al-Zahra (peace be upon her), highlighting the values ​​of chastity, purity, and faith she embodied. Dr. Al-Quraini emphasized the importance of following her path to cultivate a conscious character and to strengthen moral and human values—particularly in light of contemporary intellectual and social challenges.

This lecture is part of the College of Engineering’s ongoing initiatives aimed at fostering cultural and religious awareness and consolidating ethical principles, thereby contributing to the development of a conscious university environment that remains committed to authentic, foundational values.
