On Monday, part of the world’s largest copy of The Holy Quran was on display at the Dubai Expo 2022. It attracted a huge crowd outside Pakistan Pavilion as visitors gathered to see the exceptional piece of work.

Moreover, the award-winning artist, Shahid Rassam has imitated the Surah-e-Rahman with aluminium and gold plated script on a high-quality canvas. It has been done for the first time in Islamic history of over 1,400 years. Using aluminium and gold to write the verses of the Holy Quran would give the copy a longer life.
