The museum leverages cutting-edge technologies like 3D, AI, IoT, virtual reality, and augmented reality to preserve the stories and legacies of Islamic civilization. Pantami was impressed by the detailed biography of the Prophet, featuring rare paintings, coins, historical manuscripts, a pulpit, and reconstructions of his wives’ houses and companions.
Pantami emphasised the importance of studying and documenting history, citing the proverb, “If you want to master your contemporary era deeply, you must study and master your yesterday.” He encouraged visitors to draw inspiration from the museum and learn from the wisdom of their ancestors.
The exclusive visit was arranged by ICESCO, which commissioned the museum in November 2022 under the patronage of King Mohammed VI of Morocco. The world-class museum aims to provide an immersive experience, allowing visitors to feel like they are living with the Prophet.
