The expo had been mounted in the Indian capital with the aim of promoting the Quranic culture and helping university students and scholars get more acquainted with Quranic and Islamic arts.
The Jamia Millia Islamia University organized the event in cooperation with the Iranian cultural center in India.
The 8-day expo showcased 800 works of art, including a large 5 by 6 meter copy of the Holy Quran.
Addressing the closing ceremony, Ali Alami, the deputy of Iran’s cultural attaché in India, underlined that the message of the exhibition was the message of the Quran, “which is compassion and friendship”.
“This exhibition concludes today, but benefiting from the Quran and acting upon its teachings never ends,” he stressed.
A similar exhibition is also going to be mounted by the Iranian Cultural Center in Aligarh Muslim University (AMU) in India’s State of Uttar Pradesh.
