The Aga Khan has called on builders to use their work to celebrate pluralism in the world while at the same time improving lives.
Addressing a gathering to honour winners of the US$500,000 Aga Khan Award for Architecture, the Ismailia leader said diversity was part of the essence of Islam.
“The unity of the Ummah does not imply sameness. Working in an Islamic context need not confine us to constraining models,” he told an audience that included architects, scholars, religious leaders and politicians.
