Makkah : The Holy Quran Museum, located in the Hira Cultural District of Makkah, offers visitors a profoundly memorable experience, rich in spiritual and historical insight.
The museum’s permanent exhibition draws visitors from around the world, providing a rare opportunity to view historic copies of the Quran and trace the evolution of its script over the centuries. Among its most remarkable displays is the largest known copy of the Quran, housed in a dedicated hall, alongside ancient manuscripts that demonstrate the development of Quranic calligraphy across various Islamic periods.
Visitors gain a deeper understanding of the Quran, its divine message, its central role in Muslim life, and the ways in which it has been honoured and preserved throughout history. Interactive technologies are thoughtfully integrated to enhance learning and engagement throughout the museum.
The museum is part of the Hira Cultural District, a dynamic destination that reflects the spiritual and historical richness of Makkah. The district offers a variety of experiences that promote both religious and intellectual exploration. Key attractions include the Revelation Exhibition, which presents an interactive account of how the Quran was revealed to Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), as well as a cultural library and Hira Park, creating a well-rounded environment for learning, reflection, and spiritual connection.
