Fatwa no. 21326 The Permanent Committee for Scholarly Research and Ifta' has read what was sent to the Grand Mufty from the manager of the Da`wah Office in Al-Zulfy. It was referred to the Committee from the Secretariat General of the Council of Senior Scholars with no. 601 (Part No. 11; Page No. 11) dated 25/1/1421 A.H., and the question is:What is the ruling on holding celebrations at Masjids (mosques) for the memorizers of the Noble Qur'an to encourage them as well as others? May Allah reward you with the best.


After studying the request of Fatwa (legal opinion issued by a qualified Muslim scholar), the Committee states that there is nothing wrong with that because it is encouragement for people to care about the Book of Allah.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
