At the initiative of the Chairman of the Muslim Board of Uzbekistan, Mufti Shaykh Nuriddin Khaliqnazar, it has become a tradition to send Uzbek scholars abroad to meet with compatriots, listen to their suggestions and needs, and strengthen spiritual and educational ties.
As part of this initiative, the Head of the “Qur’an and Tajweed Teaching Department,” Shaykh Alijon Qori Fayzullah Mahdum, has departed for an official visit to the United States.
During the trip, he is scheduled to help enhance the knowledge of Qur’an recitation and tajweed among our compatriots living in the U.S. and to take part in the final stage of the ongoing Qur’an competition held there.
May Allah Almighty make this journey beneficial, fruitful, and safe.
