The program was moderated by the foundation’s National Coordinator, Mr. Deamad Conteh. In his opening statement, the National Coordinator welcomed all who made it possible to attend and ask for continuing support to the foundation.
The Launching program attracted a lot of prominent Islamic scholars including Sheikh Farouk Adam Bah. In his remarks, Sheikh Farouk highlighted the importance of the Holy Quran in the following way:
That angle Gibriel is regarded by Allah as the best of all angels because of his role in delivering the verses of the Quran to Prophet Muhammad (SAW).
That Prophet Muhammad (SAW) is regarded as the best of all Prophets because he is the prophet with whom the Holy Quran was delivered as a guide and constitution for his generation.
That the month of Ramadan is regarded as the best of all months because the Holy Quran was delivered to Prophet in that month.
Sheikh Farouk thanked everyone in attendance and encouraged the Muslim Ummah in Sierra Leone to continue to show love for the Quran.
