Arabian Gulf University (AGU) President Dr. Khalid bin Abdulrahman Al Ohaly has recently honoured the participating students in the contest for the memoriation of the Holy Quran and the Prophet’s Hadith.

The contest was organised by the Students Affairs Deanship in the university with the aim of encouraging the youth to recite and memorise the Holy Quran and the Prophet’s Hadith.

Students Affairs Dean Dr. Abdulrahman Yousif explained that the university is seeking, through organising such activities, cementing the teachings of Islam among students, based on the Holy Quran and Sunnah.

Dr. Yousif said: “The Holy Quran is a reference in all matters of life and provides a spiritual culture that enhances the ability of our students to understand the principles of our religion, such as fair legislations that provide a reference on how to deal with life.”
