Guide’s Desk Set Up to Help Contenders in Iran Int’l Quran Contest

IQNA – The Technical Committee of the International Holy Quran Competition of the Islamic Republic of Iran has set up a ‘Guide’s Desk’ to enhance the skills of the contenders.

Two renowned Iranian Quran experts, Seyed Abbas Anjam and Mu’taz Aqaei are there to help the contestants and provide them with guidance on technical issues in Quran recitation, memorization and Tarteel.

Also, after performing in the competition, the Quran memorizers and reciters can refer to the two Quran maters and seek advice on the weaknesses and strength of their performance.

The initiative has no precedence in other international Quranic events and has been introduced for the first time.

The final round of Iran’s 40th International Quran Competition got underway in Tehran on Thursday with the motto of “One Book, One Ummah, Book of Resistance”.

According to the organizers, more than 110 countries registered for the competition and 69 finalists from 44 countries qualified for the final round after a preliminary screening.

The competition will continue until Tuesday, February 20, and the winners will be announced and awarded at the closing ceremony on Wednesday, February 21.
