He said the theme of the Olymopiad, namely “Quran and Lifestyle”, was selected in light of the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution’s guidelines about Islamic lifestyle and the need for designing a lifestyle based on the teachings of the Holy Quran.
Assadi added that students of the Al-Mustafa International University in Iran and other countries will take part in the different categories of the Olympiad at four levels.
He concluded by saying that the final stage of the Olympiad will be held in Qom in February during the Ten-day Dawn Celebrations (marking the victory anniversary of the Islamic Revolution).
