Iran Nat’l Quran Contest: 14 Quran Experts Named to Evaluate Contenders’ Performances
The committee said the panel will include 14 veteran and young Quran experts.
Seyed Hamid Heravi, Nosratollah Hosseini, Karim Dowlati, Seyed Javad Sadat Fatemi, Gholam Reza Shahmiveh, Ali Akbar Kazemi and Mohsen Yarahmadi are among the experts serving in the panel.
This year’s edition of the contest was held virtually due to the coronavirus pandemic, with the participants’ performances recorded to be evaluated later.
Now after a few weeks, members of the panel of judges are going to convene at Tehran’s Eram Hotel to watch the recorded files and assess the performances.
The process of judgment will be broadcast on Iran’s Quran TV starting on Saturday.
The Islamic Republic of Iran’s national Quran competition is annually held with the participation of top Quran activists from across the country.
It is aimed at discovering Quranic talents and promoting Quranic activities in society.
The categories of the contest include memorization, recitation and interpretation of the Quran.
