Around 150 contestants competed in this year's contest from across the United Arab Emirates including children and adults who demonstrated their dedication and passion for the Holy Quran by committing it to memory and recitation.

The ceremony was attended by guests including, Professor Mohammed Al-Mahrasawy, Chairman of Al-Azhar Academy for Training and Former President of Al-Azhar University; Secretary-General of the Muslim Council of Elders, HE Judge Mohamed Abdelsalam; and HE Sheikh Talib Al Shahi, Executive Director of Islamic Affairs Sector – General Authority for Islamic Affairs and Endowments and Zakat.

Abdulla Al Shehhi, Acting Executive Director of Abrahamic Family House reflected on the significant role played by the competition in fostering peaceful co-existence and understanding: “The Eminence Ahmed El-Tayeb Mosque Quran Competition is one of the most meaningful programmes organised by the mosque at the Abrahamic Family House. The skills and dedication displayed by the competitors reveal essential values, such as mercy, love, and the acceptance of others, that are essential to Islam and to the vision and mission of the Abrahamic Family House.”

The competition took place from January 20 to February 5 and was open to contestants from across the UAE with the aim of celebrating the participants’ devotion to the teachings of the Quran through their remarkable memorisation skills.
