In cooperation with the Deanship of Student Affairs, and in partnership with the Hajar female section, the College of Applied Sciences participated in the "Glorification of the Sacred Land" project by launching the "Makkah is the Fountain of Science" initiative. This event took place on Sunday, 27 Rabi` Al-Awwal, 1441 A.H., in the presence of Her Excellency the Dean of University Studies for Female Students, the Vice Dean of Student Affairs for Direction, Guidance and Community Partnership, Her Excellency the Vice Dean of the College, Their Excellencies the deputy heads of the departments, and a number of academic staff. The aim of the initiative was to raise the awareness of female students and university employees of the term "Meccan sanctuary", and to understand its concept, in space and time.

The initiative started with the recitation of the Qur'an, followed by a speech by Her Excellency the Vice Dean of the College in which she touched upon how to employ the four disciplines in the college to serve the Makkan sanctuary and the Muslims. One of the sessions included a symposium by Her Excellency Dr. Fattuha Al-Indonosi entitled, "The Divine Word is a Miracle", and a lecture entitled, "Leave Your Mark". Moreover, the initiatives of the various departments of the college were also reviewed.

During the conclusion, the accompanying exhibition was inspected. It included many pictures, models and presentations showing the greatness of the sacred land. The exhibits were presented in an innovative and interesting way. The Biology Corner included information on how to reduce all pollutants through afforestation, which reduces air pollution, making it a form of social behavior with active community partnership. Furthermore, the Chemistry Corner contained information about the Kiswah of the Ka`bah, and the features of Zamzam water, whose chemical composition is very different from any other type of water; it contains a high amount of mineral salts and high concentrations of calcium, magnesium and fluorine compounds that act to kill germs. As for the Mathematics Corner, it explained the geometric shape of the Holy Ka`bah, and the use of the golden ratio mathematically to make it a particular irregular geometric shape. The Department of Physics reviewed its initiative under the slogan, "Projects in the service of the pilgrims". The female students presented a number of graduation projects aimed at using inexhaustible alternative energy through which plastic waste is eliminated and converted into electrical energy. They also presented ways of how to convert various forms of kinetic and thermal energy into electrical energy, so that it can be used in many different ways.

During the tour of the accompanying corners of the event, there was space for visitors to express the glorification of Makkah using a word or phrase. Many visitors were very impressed with the content, presentation and organization of the event. Moreover, a large number of female students from different colleges at the university visited the exhibition.

Finally, we supplicate Allah (Exalted and Glorified be He) that these efforts bear fruit and achieve the desired goals, and that everyone in the Makkan sanctuary keeps praising and appreciating the area, revered and aware of the greatness of this pure spot.
