Nasyrul Quran begins printing 20,000 Tamil-translated Qurans for the One Million Quran Waqf Solidarity project, aiding communities locally and abroad.
PUTRAJAYA: Nasyrul Quran, the world’s second-largest Quran printing centre, has begun printing 20,000 copies of the Quran with Tamil translation.
The printing is part of the One Million Quran Waqf Solidarity project.
The symbolic launch was officiated by Deputy Works Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Maslan alongside Restu Foundation chairman Datuk Dr Abdul Latif Mirasa and Malaysian Humanitarian Aid and Relief president Jismi Johari.
Nasyrul Quran also announced 20,000 waqf copies are ready for distribution to Zanzibar, Tanzania.
These copies aim to support Islamic education and empower Muslim communities in urgent need of quality Quran prints.
A separate allocation of 10,000 waqf copies has been made for post-disaster aid in Malaysia, Aceh, and Southern Thailand.
These will replace copies damaged by natural disasters.
Ahmad Maslan stated this effort is a da’wah responsibility that transcends geographical boundaries.
“Through the One Million Quran initiative, we want to ensure that no Muslim is left without access to a Quran that they can understand,” he said.
He added the Tamil translation is a strategic step to reach millions of Tamil speakers.
The distribution to Zanzibar and flood-affected areas reflects the solidarity of Malaysian Muslims with fellow Muslims abroad.
The One Million Quran Waqf Solidarity project is inspired by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.
It aims to disseminate copies of the Quran with translations in various languages worldwide.
