Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, regarding the supplication for the completion of the Qur'an when the children complete the Qur'an. Honorable Shaykh, we hold a party and distribute gifts to the children, and we perform the supplication, and all the children say “Ameen” to it.
Answer:
Holding a celebration for the completion of the Qur'an is permissible. It is a form of encouragement and a way of thanking Allah the Exalted. It is encouragement to memorize the Qur'an, on the condition that there is no extravagance, but rather that it is a moderate celebration. This is to thank Allah the Exalted and to express joy and happiness at the completion of the Qur'an. Yes.
