TEHRAN -- Iranian lawmakers have recently approved a bill to obligate academic centers and universities in the country to provide free education for Iranians who memorize the entire Holy Quran.
All expenses will be paid by the State Endowment and Charity Affairs Organization (SECAO), SECAO Deputy Director Hojjatoleslam Ahmad Sharafkhani said in press conference last week.
The applicants’ qualifications to enter the academic centers and universities should be approved by one of these institutions: the Educational Testing Service, the Islamic Ideology Dissemination Organization or the SECAO.
Applicants must also undergo a series of tests, which will be held from September 7 to 12.

Iran to provide free education for Quran memorizer

The regime is cutting back on humanties at Universities and imposing gender segragation. So if you learn the Koran from start to finish you can boycott tuition fees. If a student was able to learn the Shahnameh this would have been understandable. Or a student who solved a mathematical or phsyics challenge. But the Koran? This makes me sick to the stomach.

So IRI wants more people to become mullahs?

I don't understand why IRI gives such an "honor" and "reward" to Koran memorizers while an electronic Koran in 20 languages costs around $68:

20 Translations: Arabic Tafseer,English,Chinese,Farsi,Uzbek,Uigur,Urdu,French,German, Russian,Spainish,Turkish,Malay,Kazakh,Kurdish,Pashto,Dari,Thai, Indonesian,

you can simply push the button and play the verse that IRI wants to hear!

I heard in KSA a lot of people study Koran, but don't have much education and job skills, so the refineries are run by foreign engineers!
