Conference on the role of Quran in disseminating education for all

Parliamentarian and Director of the Center of Islamic Studies Mohammad Habash left Damascus today for New York to take part in today's UNINCEF-sponsored Conference on "The Role of the Holy Quran in disseminating Education for All."

Habash told SANA that the Conference, to be held under the UN umbrella, is a precedent and reflects the international organization's interest in the role of the Holy Quran in the dissemination of education and knowledge.

Syria has a unique experience in this field through al-Assad Institutions for the Holy Quran, available for the public across the country. Such Institutions actively give hand in the education and knowledge process, he added.

Habash is to deliver a lecture at the US Princeton University and another one at the Detroit-based Islamic Center.
