Moscow: The Ministry of Islamic Affairs, Dawah and Guidance is participating in the 38th Moscow International Book Fair, held from September 3 to 7, as part of Saudi Arabia's pavilion. At the Islamic affairs' corner, visitors are introduced to Saudi Arabia's role in serving the Noble Quran and promoting values of moderation and religious balance. Featured displays include various editions of the Quran printed by the King Fahd Glorious Quran Printing Complex in Madinah, in multiple sizes and translated into 77 languages, alongside an interactive demonstration of its modern printing processes.
According to Saudi Press Agency, the corner also highlights innovative digital applications, including a 3D, multilingual app that teaches the rituals of Hajj and Umrah, and a Quran keyboard app that allows users to search, insert, and share verified Quran verses and Hadiths directly, minimizing errors in writing.
Visitors can also experience a virtual-reality tour of the Prophet's Mosque, exploring its interior and architectural landmarks, while learning about Saudi Arabia's care for the Two Holy Mosques.
The corner displays rare Islamic manuscripts sourced from the Makkah Al Mukarramah Library, featuring the works of scholars, including fiqh scholars, as well as writers, and linguists, underscoring the Kingdom's dedication to preserving and sharing Islamic heritage globally.
The ministry's participation reflects its efforts to promote the values of moderation and religious balance through publications, reinforcing Saudi Arabia's leading role in serving Islam and Muslims, consistent with the leadership's aspirations and Saudi Vision 2030.
