Ihraz
Ihraz is a unique internal program created by Alfariq Association, originally born out of the quiet yet reflective period of quarantine. As the world paused, Alfariq chose to activate dialogue. Ihraz became a space for learning, discussion, and exploration among the association's members. Over time, it evolved into a structured program designed to deepen the team's critical thinking, cultural awareness, and capacity to analyze complex issues. With 21 creative editions so far, the program remains fully in-house, exclusive to Alfariq’s team, serving as a nurturing ground for thoughtful leadership and meaningful conversation.

Topics, Challenges, and Critical Thinking
What makes Ihraz distinctive is its dynamic format. Each session revolves around carefully selected themes ranging from philosophy, politics, and culture to social phenomena and historical analysis. Team members engage with podcasts, films, and texts that offer critical perspectives—then gather to dissect, debate, and reflect. The program blends individual research tasks with group challenges that test their ability to think logically, defend opinions respectfully, and apply judgment to real-world issues. Whether they’re discussing the ethics of power, the roots of inequality, or the role of culture in identity, participants are constantly sharpening their reasoning and broadening their worldview.
A Creative Lab for Internal Growth
More than a discussion program, Ihraz is a creative lab where team members are pushed to analyze, present, and respond to complex themes. Workshops like “How to Respond to Challenges with Emotional Intelligence” and reflective simulations give members tools to develop not only intellectually but also emotionally and interpersonally. The program plays a key role in shaping the culture of excellence within Alfariq: it fosters confidence in public speaking, curiosity in learning, and cohesion among team members. Ihraz has proven that real leadership begins with the ability to question deeply, listen attentively, and respond wisely—and it continues to elevate the quality of Alfariq’s public-facing programs through the invisible work it does behind the scenes.
