On this occasion, the Minister of Islamic Affairs, Call and Guidance, General Supervisor of the King Fahd Complex for the Printing of the Holy Quran in Madinah, Sheikh Dr. Abdullatif bin Abdulaziz Al Al-Sheikh expressed his appreciation to the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud and HRH the Crown Prince for their efforts and continuous support that contribute to serving the message of Islam, adding that this gift is the Kingdom's lofty message that emanates from its leading role in the Islamic world, which also coincides with the development and distinction of relations between the two countries. Sheik Dr. Al-Sheikh explained that this gift is an extension of what was sent to Thailand in the past years, as it represents a practical translation of the leadership's directive and is in line with the lofty message undertaken by the Kingdom to publish and distribute millions of copies of the Holy Quran to Muslims worldwide in more than 76 languages.
