A Generation of Quran” Unites Thousands in Anbar’s Largest Cultural Event

In a historic celebration of faith and culture, “A Generation of Quran” brought together over ten thousand people in Anbar. The grand event, held at Al-Ramadi Stadium, marked the conclusion of the biggest Quranic competition ever hosted in Iraq.

The event showcased the results of months of hard work, dedication, and spiritual growth. Thousands of families, scholars, and enthusiasts gathered to witness the culmination of a deeply meaningful journey.

Organizers highlighted the uniqueness of this cultural gathering. Zaid Al-Maayoof, one of the main organizers, stated that the competition centered on memorizing Surat Al-Hujurat. Over 9,000 participants from across Anbar took part in this ambitious initiative.

Contestants advanced through several stages of testing before reaching the final ceremony. Their determination and commitment to learning the Quran earned them recognition and admiration from the entire community.

In a touching gesture, the organizers awarded 120 winners with a free Umrah pilgrimage. This reward, funded by generous donors, served as both encouragement and gratitude for their efforts.

The heart of the celebration was not only in the numbers but also in its purpose. According to Al-Maayoof, the event aimed to promote spiritual values and preserve the Quranic identity of Anbar’s people. He emphasized the importance of nurturing future generations with strong moral and religious principles.
