Vice President for Administrative and Financial Affairs, Dr. Yousef Obeidat, presided over the closing ceremony honoring the winners of the “Holy Quran Memorization Competition” and the “University Hafiz Competition” for the academic year 2024/2025, “Organized by the Faculty of Sharia and Islamic Studies” in collaboration with the Deanship of Student Affairs,  Dr. Mohammad Talafhah, Dean of the Faculty, said that Yarmouk University’s care for the Quran and its people is part of caring for the nation and investing in the future of its sons and coming generations. He explained that this nation was shaped by the Quran, which set its path, refined its character, and gave it distinction among other nations.

He emphasized that the surahs and verses of the Holy Quran, its wise guidance, its healing influence, and its comprehensive rulings, will remain a witness to the truth for this nation or against it. They will guide it if it goes astray, help it if it stumbles, and show it the path of truth and goodness when the paths become confusing or diverse.

Dr. Talafhah thanked the sponsor and supporter of the competition, the Arab Islamic International Bank. He also appreciated the efforts of the Quran Program Supervisor, Dr. Nadhir Al-Shrairi, the recitation teachers from the Department of Fundamentals of Religion, and the judging committee for making this competition a success.

Based on the competition outcomes, Alia Bakr Al-Shboul, a student from the Department of Fundamentals of Religion, secured first place upon completing the memorization of the entire Holy Quran.
