Hawzah News Agency- Senior Shia scholar Grand Ayatollah Mazaheri issued a message to the 19th Quran Exhibition in Isfahan, the text of which is as follows:
In the name of God
The Holy Quran is a comprehensive and eternal book of God, whose main philosophy of revelation from God Almighty is to guide people and to separate right from wrong.
Therefore, all the blessed activities that are formed around the axis of the Holy Quran, including the exhibition of the Quran, must follow this path of light, and the main orientation of all its programs is enlightenment and guidance, as well as separating truth from falsehood.
Undoubtedly, this "enlightenment" is done through conveying the sublime concepts and messages of the Holy Quran and applying it to the issues and problems of contemporary man and the current world, and striving to make these messages practical. The Holy Quran is a book of action and struggle, and merely reading and promoting it, without action, is not fruitful. A sincere and diligent effort to follow the life-giving, human-building, and society-building teachings of the Holy Quran definitely leads to the guidance and honor of man and the health and happiness of the society.
In the hope that all of us can follow the teachings of this holy book properly.
We honor the holding of the 19th Quran exhibition in Isfahan and admire the efforts of all those involved in this exhibition and express our gratitude and appreciation to all of them.
I ask God Almighty for everyone's success.
