This initiative, a cornerstone of the Al Bader Initiative, is dedicated to celebrating the profound love for the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and aims to illuminate his exemplary life, brimming with teachings and wisdom.

The Al Bader Award is part of a broader effort to foster affection for the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and disseminate his noble Sunnah, with a particular focus on promoting its tolerant teachings among the wider society, especially the youth and children.

Additionally, the Poetry and Multimedia categories are exclusively open for the Youth category. On the other hand, the international award invites submissions from individuals of all ages and nationalities.

Since its inception, the Al Bader Award has served as a prominent platform for celebrating noble prophetic values, promoting Islamic principles, and inspiring talented individuals worldwide. It encourages participation in five distinct creative categories: Poetry, Arabic Calligraphy, Painting, Multimedia, and the newly introduced Miniature Art category, offering a fresh perspective on the subject.

The administration of the award, with the generous support of His Highness the Crown Prince of Fujairah, eagerly awaits submissions, with the deadline set for October 15, 2024. This timeline allows ample opportunity for showcasing creative talents and providing participants with recognition and guidance from experts and specialists.

The Al Bader Award has garnered remarkable success since its inception, emerging as the premier Arab cultural initiative in the UAE dedicated to upholding the values of the Prophet's noble biography. Winning and finalist entries will be prominently showcased in the prestigious 'Al Bader Exhibition' during the Al Bader Festival in December 2024, with participants receiving certificates of appreciation from the award administration.
