Tehran’s Mosalla to Host Int’l Quran Expo in Second Half of Ramadan
Ali Reza Moaf, the Quran and Etrat deputy of the Ministry of Culture and Islamic Gudiance, said on Saturday that this year’s expo will be mounted for twelve days in the second half of the holy month of Ramadan.
Scheduled for the 15th to 27th days of Ramadan (April 17-29), it will be organized in person and in full compliance with the health protocols, he stated.
Moaf added that the culture ministry had planned a 25-day expo, but an approval was given (by the National Headquarters for Fighting the Coronavirus) for holding it for 12 days and in a more limited scale than previous years.
Since the new wave of the coronavirus is receding in the country, he went on to say, both the International Quran Exhibition and the Tehran International Book Fair will be organized in person this year.
The Tehran International Quran Exhibition is annually organized by the Ministry of Culture and Islamic Guidance in the holy month of Ramadan.
The exhibition is aimed at promoting Quranic concepts and developing Quranic activities.
It showcases the latest Quranic achievements in the country as well as a variety of products dedicated to the promotion of the Holy Book.
In 2020 the expo was called off and in 2021 it was held virtually due to the coronavirus restrictions in the country.
