Makkah: The Presidency of Religious Affairs at the Grand Mosque and the Prophet’s Mosque is operating the ‘Khitmat Mutakif’ program, aimed at deepening the Mutakif’s (a person in the state of Itikaf (retreat) during Ramadan) understanding of the Quran.

This is facilitated by a group of qualified Saudi teachers of Quranic recitation and sciences, as well as Quranic Ijazah (certifications) linked to the Prophet’s tradition, experienced in serving the Holy Quran through reading, teaching, memorization, guidance, and proper pronunciation training.

The program operates on two tracks: ‘Intensive Review’, with the Mutakif getting to choose one of three levels: complete Quran review, review of 20 parts, or review of 10 parts; and ‘Recitation Guidance’. Some 3,000 Mutakifs of both genders followed the two tracks.

Flexible periods are allocated for the two tracks, enabling Mutakifs to enrich their religious experience at their convenience.

It is part of the programs designed to enable worshippers to use the blessin
gs of the last 10 days of the holy month of Ramadan to enrich their religious experience.
