The Holy Quran Museum in the Hira Cultural District in Makkah continues to play a leading role in preserving and exhibiting rare copies of the Holy Quran, standing as a cultural landmark that reflects the revered status of the Quran in the conscience of the Islamic nation and documents the care devoted to it across different historical eras, SPA reported.
Through its collections, the museum highlights the value of Quranic endowments, which formed one of the most significant features of Islamic civilization and contributed to safeguarding Quran manuscripts, disseminating them, facilitating their recitation, and supporting their service in mosques and centers of learning.
The museum houses one endowed copy of the Holy Quran printed in 30 pages, endowed by Prince Abdulaziz bin Mishaal bin Abdulaziz.
This initiative reflects a deep connection to the Holy Quran and embodies the continuity of the charitable endowment tradition dedicated to serving and caring for the Holy Quran.
The display of this manuscript aligns with the museum’s mission to introduce visitors to the history of the Holy Quran, highlight the efforts of individuals and institutions to preserve and serve it, and raise awareness of the cultural and humanitarian significance of Quranic endowments.
The museum offers a comprehensive cultural and knowledge-based experience that connects visitors to the history and stature of the Holy Quran, starting from Makkah, the birthplace of revelation and the direction of prayer for Muslims.
