Int'l Quran Award Extends Entry Deadline
The Dubai International Holy Quran Award on Wednesday extended the deadline for application in the seventh session of the Most Beautiful Recitation Contest from April 18 to May 18.
Head of the organising committee, Ibrahim bu Melha, who is also adviser to the Ruler of Dubai for Cultural and Humanitarian Affairs, said the five-category tuneful recitation competition, which is part of the 11-category Dubai International Holy Quran Award (DIHQA), is aimed to discover, sponsor and qualify Quran talents and tuneful voices.
“Children aged 15 or below may participate in the first category known as ‘Quran Buds’ while the second category billed ‘Quran Youngsters’ is open to those between 15 and 25 years. The third category for ‘Quran Youth’ is for those from 26 years old and above.” There are two categories, one for Masjid imams and one for the most tuneful Azan (call for prayer).
Bu Melha said participation is open for the public, be they Emiratis or expatriates, provided they show good performance whether in reciting the Holy Quran or Azan-giving.
