The 22nd All Japan Annual Quran Competition will be held this year InshaAllah.

Although Corona Virus infection rate has decreased, the situation is not completely stable. Hence “Preliminary Qualification Round” will be held online and the top 10 contestants from each level will be selected to participate in the Final Round offline at Tokyo Camii.

Please note that due to infection control measures, no audience, except parents of selected contestants, will be allowed in the Final Round at Tokyo Camii.
