Great news , traditionally Egyptians were considered the best Qaris.

Btw speaking of Qaris here is an awesome reciting of Chapter-Al-Rehman [The Beneficent ] recited by a decorated Pakistani -Qari Sayed Sadaqat Ali.

lol I was the worst
Arabic and Quran classes were a nightmare for me. Oh and English. I always got **** marks in these 3 classes.
 
Magnificent achievement. I hope the Iranian people can benefit from it. We might have not much interest in human right's, support all kind of terrorist organization and can't provide all people with social care, but at least we are the best Quran reciters! Wonderful!

Your troll was uncalled for.
 
Congrats to Iran. Sadly, I don't know much about Islam in Iran (other than that they are shia). It's a subject I have yet to read and learn about. I do know Ali Shariati though, I've read a book of this great Islamic thinker translated into Turkish.
 
Congratulations Iran. Strangely Pakistan is no where in the list of winners :)
