Tweeting the Qur’an #Quran #Ramadan #ttQuran 2020/1441
Traditionally, Muslims read the Qur'an in its entirety during Ramadan, in a section a day. The Qur'an is split into thirty sections, called juz', and one section is read each night.

I hope to blog my notes from the religion panel later this week — will keep you posted. 🙂
