穆夫塔在卡達出生時患有一種罕見的疾病,即尾部退化綜合徵 (CRS),這是一種先天性疾病,會使得胎兒的下半身發育不正常。

But the determined youngster refused to let his condition stunt his thirst for life and decided to take on a range of sports — tackling everything from scuba diving, rock climbing, football, ice hockey and swimming, to workouts in the gym and archery。

儘管如此,穆夫塔沒有讓病情阻止他對生活的熱愛。他熱衷於各種運動,從潛水、攀巖、足球、冰球和游泳到健身房鍛鍊和射箭,無所不包。

The young Qatari recited a verse from the Quran and helped the actor welcome the world in a show themed around unity and tolerance。

這位卡達小夥背誦了《古蘭經》中的一段經文,並協助弗里曼在一場以團結和寬容為主題的表演中向全世界致以熱烈歡迎。

Then, reciting a verse from the Quran, he added: “We were raised to believe that we were scattered on this earth as nations and tribes, so we could learn from each other and find beauty in our differences。”

接著,他背誦了《古蘭經》中的一段經文補充道:“我們從小就相信——我們分散在地球各個角落,形成各個國家與部落,因此我們可以相互學習並在我們的差異中發現美。”

“I can see it,” Freeman replied。 “What unites us here, in this moment, is so much greater than what divides us。 How can we make it last longer than just today?”

“我能看到它,”弗里曼回答道,“此時此刻將我們團結在此的力量遠比分裂我們的要強大得多。我們怎樣才能讓它從今往後長久延續呢?”

“With tolerance and respect, we can live together under one big home,” Al Muftah replied。

“帶著寬容和尊重,我們可以在一個大家園中一起生活。”阿爾·穆夫塔迴應道。
