[1]A 12-year old student from Ahmednagar in Maharashtra has set a record of its kind by reciting the entire holy 'Quran' in 12 hours without glancing at the holy book.
Hafiz Mohammad Zabihullah, a student of Darul Uloom Tajul Masajid, recited the Quraan in the presence of the Head of the Darul Uloom, Peer Sayeed Sahab, Maulana Ahsan Khan Nadvi and many other Hifz department teachers here on Thursday.
Zabihullah is said to have taken only eight months to memorise the Quran, which he recited without looking at the holy book. He began his recital at 8am and went up till 8pm.
The young student was rewarded for his endeavour by the Darul Uloom.
