The inmates explained that they embraced Islam after deeper knowledge of the religion's values that call for love, mercy and tolerance.
They also stressed the positive treatment they experienced from the officials. Religious lectures given by specialised imams contributed to enhancing their understanding of Islam's teachings, the inmates expressed.
The main goal of the institution is to "reintegrate inmates into society in a positive way after the end of their sentences," said Colonel Abdullah Rashid Alai Al Naqbi, Acting Director of the Punitive and Correctional Institution.
He added that this approach helps them regain normal lives, contributes in correcting their behaviour, and reducing recidivism rates. The institution also seeks to rehabilitate inmates psychologically and socially, regardless of their religions or beliefs, Colonel Abdullah added.
