30,000 copies of the Quran were distributed and the copies allocated to the relevant authorities were transferred to serve those in seclusion and visitors
The Holy Qur'an Affairs Department at the Grand Mosque is intensifying its operational efforts to ensure the readiness of prayer areas and the availability of approved copies in all corridors and outer courtyards. This is achieved through meticulous monitoring of the condition of Qur'ans in cabinets, continuously updating them with new copies, and replacing damaged or worn-out ones.
The department has successfully provided more than 30,000 copies of the Qur'an since the beginning of Ramadan .
These efforts also extend to providing chairs for worshippers and Qur'an stands in funeral areas and visitor prayer areas, with a total of over 83,000 chairs secured to serve those visiting the Grand Mosque and facilitate their worship in a comfortable environment.
Special Needs Care
The administration pays close attention to the diverse needs of worshippers from various nationalities by providing translations, commentaries, and different narrations in separate, organized cabinets, with special care given to the elderly and people with disabilities.
These services include providing large-format Qur'ans to facilitate reading and ensuring access to Braille Qur'ans in both print and digital formats for the visually impaired in their designated prayer areas.
These measures aim to create an inclusive worship environment that guarantees every visitor has access to the version that best suits their abilities and linguistic and physical needs.
Ongoing daily maintenance
Field teams implement a comprehensive periodic maintenance plan that includes polishing the copper cabinets in coordination with the cleaning department, along with daily cleaning and sanitizing of the Qur'ans to ensure their safety and high quality for worshippers.
The organizational work also extends to direct coordination with the Itikaf project to provide the prayer areas designated for those observing Itikaf with all necessary Qur'ans, translations, and narrations to support the spiritual atmosphere during the last ten days of Ramadan.
This integrated system aims to enhance the Grand Mosque's aesthetic appeal and preserve its sacred relics in their finest condition.
Adjusting the distributed copies of the Quran
The administration continues its daily monitoring duties by identifying and removing unapproved copies of the Quran that are given away by visitors through unofficial channels and handing them over to the relevant authorities. The total number of copies seized and removed since the beginning of Ramadan has exceeded 88,000.
These measures aim to ensure that no copies that do not meet the approved standards are present within the Grand Mosque and to protect worshippers from any printing errors that may be found in unofficial copies.
These monitoring efforts demonstrate the utmost commitment to providing the best organized services that ensure worshippers can perform their rituals with peace and spirituality.
