Quran exhibitions marking Ramadan begin in Iran
By: Sheikh M Khurasani
TEHRAN, Iran: The 15th International Holy Quran Exhibition was inaugurated at
Tehran’s Imam Khomeini Mosalla on the eve of Ramadan, September 13.
Speaking at the opening ceremony, the Minister of Culture and Islamic
Guidance, Mohammad-Hossein Saffar Harandi said that the event provides an
opportunity for people to become acquainted with the latest scientific
research and other activities focusing on the Holy Quran.
The theme of this year’s exhibit is “Quranic Life, Islamic Solidarity” and
several changes have been made to the event compared with previous years’
editions.
This year the section devoted to young adults has been omitted, but instead,
every section of the program will have a part dedicated to youth. The
children’s section is totally separate.
The books on display in the exhibition are not for sale, but a separate
bookshop has been set up which is selling religious and Quranic works at a
35% discount.
An exhibition featuring the lives of the holy prophets has been set up on the
side lines of the event.
Overall, 30 Quran exhibits are scheduled to be held in 30 different Iranian
cities during the month of Ramadan.

"Knowledge is
better than wealth because it protects you while you have to
guard wealth. it decreases if you keep on spending it but the
more you make use of knowledge ,the more it increases . what you
get through wealth disappears as soon as wealth disappears but
what you achieve through knowledge will remain even after you."MORE
