The Logo: Bow Down and Discover
The Ibis, the bird, gm in Hieroglyphics, carries two meanings in addition to the bird.
- To bow down.
- To find, discover.
To bow down is an act of humility, the necessary condition to attaining knowledge, as God says, "Only those who have knowledge defer to Allah from among His slaves." (38:28) Thus humility is the mark of a scholar and without it true knowledge cannot be discovered.
