General Azizollah Maleki, the police commander of Fars province, announced this, noting that a ceremony to commemorate the martyrs of authority and security will also be held in Fars simultaneously with the Quranic event.

He said the honor of holding this competition has been bestowed upon the Fars Provincial Police Command, and “we consider this spiritual opportunity very precious and will do our utmost to benefit from the luminous presence of the Holy Quran (activists in the province).”

General Maleki added that taking refuge in the Quran is the only way to cross the turbulent sea of ​​sin and reach the straight path, and these were the dear martyrs who, relying on the luminous verses of the Word of God, entered the sacred arena of jihad in the path of God and achieved eternal happiness.

Recalling the duty of keeping the memory of the martyrs alive, he said the path of the martyrs continues, a path in which fear has no place and trust in God will be the main capital of every step.

“Our goal in combining the Quran competition and the Martyrs' Memorial in one ritual is to declare that we are the children of the Quran, followers of the Wilayat, and continuers of the path of the martyrs who stand against the superpowers with faith, not with weapons or flashy media, but with hearts filled with the light of the Quran and the pursuit of justice.”

In addition to commemorating martyrs, Quranic programs can play an effective role in nurturing human beings, strengthening religious and cultural identity, preserving the values ​​of the Islamic Revolution, and guiding today’s generation to the path of spirituality, morality, and sacrifice, he stressed.

He also referred to the implementation of the Martyr Quranic Ambassador project in this year’s Quran and Etrat competition for the Police Force, saying that in this spiritual project, all memorizers, participants, judges, and those involved in the competition will each be introduced as the Quranic ambassador of one of security martyrs and will receive the Martyr Ambassador plaque, which will bring three spiritual and practical responsibilities for them:

“First, in implementing religious standards, every Muslim must recite the Holy Quran daily, and the martyr’s Quranic ambassador will offer the reward of his daily recitations to the martyr’s pure soul. Second, he makes the martyr an intercessor so that God helps him in practicing the Quranic teachings and sincerity in recitation. Third, he makes the martyr’s luminous character a beacon for his own path in life and follows the martyr’s example.”
