TEHRAN (IQNA) – Quran recitation programs are planned to be held in Iran’s 31 provinces Monday afternoon ahead of the 42nd anniversary of the Islamic Revolution’s victory.

 

The programs will be broadcast live on IRIB Quran TV and provincial TV channels.

They will be organized from 4 PM to 6 PM today by the Association of Quran and Etrat Institutes.

Top Qaris of the provinces will recite verses from the Holy Book at the programs.

Every year, millions of Iranians across the country observe ten days of celebrations marking the anniversary of the victory of the 1979 Islamic Revolution that put an end to the monarchy of the US-backed Pahlavi regime in the country.

The day of Imam Khomeini’s return to Iran marks the beginning of the Ten Day Fajr (Ten Days of Dawn), which culminates with rallies on the anniversary of the victory of the Islamic Revolution on February 11.

The Iranian nation toppled the US-backed Pahlavi regime 42 years ago, ending the 2,500 years of monarchic rule in the country.

The Islamic Revolution spearheaded by the late Imam Khomeini established a new political system based on Islamic values and democracy.
