The Holy Quran Museum, located in Makkah’s Hira Cultural District, is currently displaying a rare and remarkable manuscript - the 25th part of the Holy Quran dating back to the 9th century AH (15th century AD).
Written in the elegant Levantine Naskh script, the manuscript draws attention with its refined ornamentation and delicate gilding, reflecting the deep reverence with which the Holy Quran has been preserved and honored across generations, The Caspian Post reports via Saudi Press Agency.
The historic piece is safeguarded at the King Faisal Center for Research and Islamic Studies, and its public display is part of a broader initiative to showcase priceless Quranic treasures and rare manuscripts. The exhibition not only underscores the artistic and historical value of the text but also offers visitors a richer cultural and intellectual insight into Islamic heritage.
The Holy Quran Museum officially opened its doors in Makkah, adding a major cultural landmark to the sacred city.
