JEDDAH: A total of 240,000 copies of the Holy Qur’an were distributed to Umrah pilgrims at Al-Miqat Mosque in Madinah during February as part of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques’ gift program, the Saudi Press Agency reported.

The Ministry of Islamic Affairs, Dawah and Guidance, through its Madinah branch, carried out the distribution in line with its efforts to serve pilgrims and visitors arriving in the city.

Distribution points witnessed emotional scenes as pilgrims expressed their joy upon receiving the copies. Several recipients voiced their gratitude for the gesture, praying for the Kingdom’s leadership and commending the care and attention provided from their arrival until the completion of their rituals.

The effort reflects the ministry’s broader mission to serve the Holy Qur’an through its printing, publication and wide distribution, alongside continued work during the Umrah season to support, educate and guide pilgrims and visitors.
