The administrative assistant to the head of the Department, Mr. Yousef al-Taie, said:"the Al-Ameed Educational Group celebrates more than a thousand learners today, who are the result of years of educational implantation and continuous work in the conscious ear project, an exclusive program that promotes in students the love of the Holy Quran and interaction with memorization, recitation and interpretation.

He added,"these learners are good outputs of an educational experience characterized by taking care of the Holy Quran, as they grew up and were raised in a Quranic environment belonging to the soil of Aba al-Fadl al-Abbas (peace be upon him), a soil that develops Islamic values and Quranic knowledge that society needs."

He pointed out that"this Quranic ceremony is nothing but a message of reassurance addressed by the Al-Ameed Educational Group to the community, confirming that the building of generations is based on sound foundations of Science and faith".

"The competition included 16 educational institutions, and stretched over two years, and the number of participants reached more than 16 thousand students, resulting in more than a thousand winners, reflecting the scale of efforts and deep educational planning to achieve these blessed fruits, "he said.
