Copies of Holy Quran distributed to madrasa students in Gaibandha

Bashundhara Shuvosangho Sadullapur upazila unit gifted copies of the Holy Quran to students of Nure Madina Model Madrasa and Orphanage in Gaibandha on Saturday to encourage religious education and Quranic studies.

The programme was held at the madrasa in Ponchar Bazar area of Sadullapur upazila on 24 October. The initiative aimed to inspire students to study the Holy Quran, promote religious education and encourage them to follow its teachings in their daily lives. 

Ashikur Rahman Ashik (Shawon), president of the Bashundhara Shuvosangho Sadullapur upazila unit, said the Holy Quran was not only meant to be recited but its teachings should also be reflected in everyday life.

“This is a small initiative by Shuvosangho to encourage students who study the Quran. We want every student to be enlightened by the teachings of the Holy Quran and grow into a person of strong moral character and ideals. Shuvosangho will continue such humanitarian and educational activities in the future,” he said.

Hafez Maulana Mufti Abdur Razzak, director of Nure Madina Model Madrasa and Orphanage, said the Holy Quran was a source of guidance for humanity and praised the initiative to encourage students to pursue Quranic education.

“By gifting copies of the Holy Quran, the organisation will help students in their studies and encourage them to learn the Quran and put its teachings into practice. I thank everyone involved with Bashundhara Shuvosangho for this commendable initiative,” he said.

The programme was attended by Abdur Razzak, Ashikur Rahman Ashik (Shawon), general secretary Md Sajib Sarkar and treasurer Fazle Rabbi of the Sadullapur upazila unit.

Other attendees included Shuvosangho members Walif Pranta, Mithun Hasan Rocky, Md Mursalin Mia, Md Rion Akand, Md Pappu Mia, Rifat Akand, Md Dipon Mia, Mahbubur Rahman, Rion Sheikh and Tanvir Mahtab Rohan.

The organisers expressed hope that the initiative would encourage students to deepen their religious knowledge while practising honesty, morality and humanitarian values.
