Iraq’s Universities to Host Quran Exhibitions
The Najaf Quran Center affiliated to the Astan (custodianship) of the holy shrine of Hazrat Abbas (AS) will supervise the expo.
It will be launched later today and run until Wednesday, March 1, according to alkafeel.net website.
Sayyed Zayd al-Ramahi, an official with the center, said all the preparations have been made for holding the Quranic event.
He added that similar exhibitions will be organized in other universities like the University of Kufa, Al-Furat AL-Awsat Technical University, Imam Jafar Sadiq (AS) University, and Jabir ibn Hayyan Medical University.
Quranic activities have significantly developed in Iraq since the 2003 overthrow of former dictator Saddam Hussein.
There has been a growing trend of Quranic programs such as competitions, recitation sessions, exhibitions and educational programs held in the Arab country in recent years.
