Al-Sarhan pointed out that history is not just a narrative of events, but rather a key to understanding the forces that shaped the lives of peoples and formulated their identity, past, and future. He stressed that the mission of the Department of History is to enable students with the tools of critical thinking and objective analysis in a way that enhances their ability to anticipate the future through understanding the past.
