The Ukrainian Muslim Organization, in collaboration with the Association of Crimean Tatars, will organize a competition for memorizing and reciting Qur’an during the blessed month of Ramadan.
Sheikh Aleemdar Khairallaev said: “We are planning to organize a competition in our cultural center for men on 27 Ramadan, and another one for women the following day.
The competition aimed at the encouragement of Muslims in Ukraine and Crimea to learn and memorize some short surahs of the Qur’an, the imam said.
He pointed to the increased interest in learning and memorizing the Holy Qur’an in the Crimea and Ukraine, especially among the children.
The competition organizers will hold a prize distribution ceremony to distribute the awards among the winners during Eid al-Fitr, which marks the end of the fasting month of Ramadan.
