A Palestinian excels in the King Mohammed VI International Qur’an Memorization Competition
Palestinian youth continue to achieve distinguished achievements in the name of Palestine at the Arab and international levels.
The Palestinian young man, Karim Shakaa (25 years old), from the city of Nablus, north of the occupied West Bank, recently ranked sixth during his participation in the 12th session of the King Mohammed VI International Competition in memorizing, reciting, intonation and interpretation of the Holy Qur’an.
The competition, which was held in Casablanca, Morocco, with the participation of 20 countries, included memorizing the Holy Qur’an, reciting it, and reciting it, in addition to the interpretation of parts 23 and 24.
The Palestinian young man was able to memorize the Qur’an within a year and a half. He began memorizing it at the age of 14.
Although his participation in the Moroccan Shakaa Competition was the first internationally, it was not his first locally. In 2015, he participated in the “Hafiz al-Misra” competition in Al-Aqsa Mosque by memorizing the entire Qur’an and won eighth place, and in the first An-Najah Competition and won third place.
