Presided over by the Culture Minister Ali Jannati, the meeting was also attended by the Quran and Etrat Deputy of the ministry and director of the exhibition Hojat-ol-Islam Mohammad Reza Heshmati and a number of other officials.

Hojat-ol-Islam Heshmati presented a report on the preparations for the expo and commenting on the selection of the exhibition’s motto said, “Words like Quran and culture should be included in the motto… I think ‘Realization of the Quranic culture through national resolve and Jihadi management’ can be an appropriate motto for this year’s exhibition.”

He added that by organizing the exhibition, Tehran will be turned into a Quranic city during the holy month of Ramadan.

The cleric noted that as well as the exhibition, there will be Quranic activities planned to be held in 22 districts of Tehran in the holy month.

Elsewhere in his remarks, Hojat-ol-Islam Heshmati underlined that in this year’s Quran exhibition, more attention will be paid to quality of the events and programs than their quantity.

He also hoped that the Quran exhibition will be a venue for showcasing the Quranic accomplishments of the Islamic Republic of Iran.

The International Tehran Quran Exhibition is annually held in Iran’s capital city during the fasting month of Ramadan.

While until last year, the Imam Khomeini (RA) Mosalla (prayers hall) hosted the exhibition, this year it is held in the Holy Defense Garden-Museum.
