Iranian Qaris, Memorizers Attend 30 Ramadan Quranic Programs in Iraq

IQNA – Thirty Quranic programs were held with the participation of Iranian Quranic elites in various governorates of Iraq during this year’s Ramadan.

A Quranic delegation headed by memorizer of the entire Quran Mohammad Mehdi Haqgouyan traveled to Iraq during the holy month of Ramadan (March).

Haqgouyan told IQNA that the delegation included three teenage Quran memorizers and reciters.

They held Quranic programs in various governorates of the Arab country, including Baghdad and Basra, during their two-week stay.

“In the field of Quran memorization, one of my students named Seyed Ali Mortazavi, who presents various methods for memorizing the Quran, delivered engaging and impactful programs.”

He added that in recitation, teenage qari Ahmadreza Asgari delivered memorable recitations.

Also present was Seyed Mohammad Hosseini, who is prominent in religious songs and melodies, Haqgouyan noted.

All three of them are well-known and recognized individuals in their areas of expertise, he stated.

He said that there was a great deal of enthusiasm from the audience at these gatherings.

“We held two to three programs daily, while the demand was much higher. However, due to time constraints, we couldn’t conduct more. This enthusiasm was especially noticeable at universities, where a good number of attendees participated in the events.”

Haqgouyan further mentioned the request from the officials of Basra to establish a Quranic institute in the governorate.

“It was agreed that this matter would be examined to see if it is possible to set up the institute for the purpose of providing and teaching methods for memorizing the Holy Quran.”
