The Holy Quran Exhibition in Masjid al Nabawi, Madina – Gate 5

Largest manuscript of the Holy Quran: The biggest beauty of this exhibition is in a hall where one of the largest manuscripts of the Holy Quran is kept. It weighs over 154 kilograms and was written by an Afghan Ghulam Mohiuddin.

The manuscript is 200 years ago. The manuscript seems too attractive and beautiful that every Muslim get lost in its beauty and is left in awe.

Old Manuscripts of the Holy Quran: Besides this, there is a hall in which there are many old-age manuscripts of the Holy Quran. It was interesting to view some of the manuscripts that were written just a few centuries after the Hijra. The manuscripts were brought from all around the world. They were written by the most well-known calligraphers of that time.

It is indeed interesting for all the Muslims to know that soon another exhibition in the city of Madina will be opened that will focus on the history of Masjid e Nabwi. Currently, it is under construction and once it will be opened it will be a biggest tourist’s and pilgrim’s attention.

Documentary on the Holy Quran: Next, to it, there was a room that has a huge screen covering the entire length. The screen presented a short documentary on our Holy Book. This is all that you will witness in the exhibition of the Holy Quran and on the exit you will find a small souvenir shop that sells memorabilia related to the exhibition.
