TEHRAN (IQNA) – The first virtual Quran exhibition of Iran will be launched in a ceremony later today.

 

Minister of Culture and Islamic Guidance Seyed Abbas Salehi will officiate the event, which will be attended by other Culture Ministry officials and directors of a number of Quranic institutes of the country.

The exhibition will run for ten days and include two sections: a book fair and the contents section.

Organizers say the expo’s duration may be extended to the end of Ramadan.

More than 500 publishers will present their books on different religious and Quranic subjects at the book fair, according to the ministry’s Quran and Etrat Deputy.

Abdol Hadi Feqhizadeh said that 500 Quranic, religious and cultural institutes will also showcase their activities at the exhibition.

The virtual expo is going to be held instead of the annual international Quran exhibition that was cancelled in 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The Tehran International Quran Exhibition is annually organized by the Ministry of Culture and Islamic Guidance in the holy month of Ramadan.
