The third edition of the Twellium National Qur’an Recitation Competition came to a
successful close on Sunday, April 5, 2026, at the National Mosque in Kanda, Accra. The
event drew participants and spectators from across the country, showcasing a powerful
blend of faith, unity, and excellence in Qur’anic recitation.
Organised by Twellium Industrial Company Limited through the Twellium Foundation, in
collaboration with key Islamic organisations, the competition brought together talented
reciters who demonstrated remarkable mastery of the Glorious Qur’an. Their performances

Described by attendees as both uplifting and inspiring, the event created an atmosphere of
deep reflection and reverence. Each recitation resonated with the audience, many of whom
expressed admiration for the discipline and dedication shown by both participants and guest
reciters.
Speakers at the event highlighted the importance of nurturing young talent in Qur’anic
studies, noting that initiatives like this help strengthen moral values and deepen spiritual
growth within the Muslim community.
A representative shared, “This competition is not just about identifying the best reciters, but
about encouraging a deeper connection with the Qur’an among young people. We commend
Twellium for sustaining this initiative.”
