TEHRAN – The 29th edition of the International Holy Qur’an Exhibition began in Tehran on Saturday, with Iran’s Parliament Speaker Muhammad Baqer Qalibaf and Minister of Culture and Islamic Guidance Muhammad-Mehdi Esmaili in attendance.
The exhibition began in-person in Tehran after a two-year hiatus due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The exhibition is being held at Imam Khomeini Mosalla from April 16 to 29.
The Tehran International Qur’an Exhibition is annually organized by the Ministry of Culture and Islamic Guidance in the holy month of Ramadan.
It is aimed at promoting Qur’anic concepts and developing Qur’anic activities. It showcases the latest Qur’anic 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.
