The Scandinavian competition of the noble Quran:
Out of concern from the Scandinavian Institution for the Noble Quran and its Sciences to serve the book of Allah came the idea of organizing an annual Scandinavian competition. The idea was to encourage the Muslim minority in Scandinavia to memorize the Noble Quran, to recite it, to learn its phonetic rules, to spread it and to motivate them to follow its guidance. The idea was also to highlight a Scandinavian generation raised in the light of the Quran that will compete in the international competitions.
Translation of the meaning of the noble Quran:
There is a great need for the translation of the noble Quran in the Scandinavian countries. Therefore, the Scandinavian Institution for the Noble Quran and its Sciences took the responsibility to translate the noble Quran to the languages of Scandinavia and the Nordic countries.
The institution started a project of translating the meaning of the Quran to Swedish which also contains a brief and a simplified exegesis. The translation of the first four parts of the Quran together with the 30:th part is completed – by the grace of Allah – and the work is continuing until we complete the translation of the whole Quran to Swedish and to the languages of Scandinavia and Nordic countries.
