LAHORE: (Friday, October 11, 2024): Punjab University Vice Chancellor Prof Dr Muhammad Ali has said that there is no greater task than reciting, listening, understanding, practicing and spreading the Holy Quran.
He was addressing a ceremony for the distribution of the Holy Quran with translation organized by the Punjab University Center for Quran and Sunnah here at Al Raazi Hall on Friday.

Prof Dr Muhammad Hammad Lakhvi said that the role of the Center of Quran and Sunnah to ensure regular classes of translation of the Holy Quran in the university is commendable. Dr Abdul Qudoos Sohaib said that the translated Holy Quran is being distributed in universities across Pakistan. Dr Harris Mobeen said that earlier in PU, 600 copies of the Holy Quran with translation have been distributed among the teachers, while this time 700 copies will be distributed.
