An Islamic icon of a different kind is currently on show between the traditional treasures of Doha’s Museum of Islamic Art—the boxing icon, and prominent Muslim activist and campaigner, Muhammad Ali whose life and sporting career is the subject of a posthumous exhibition (until 5 November). The memorabilia include photographs from Ali’s outdoor exhibition bout at the Doha Stadium in 1971. Some of the exhibits will become part of the permanent collection at the planned 3-2-1 Olympic and Sports Museum in Doha, which will be built as part of the redeveloped Khalifa International Stadium. The opening date of the new museum is yet to be confirmed but its growing collection also includes a signed Usain Bolt track spike from 2009.
