عناية دولة قطر بالمطبوعات القرآنية وسبل تقويمها
The Islamic civilisation has been well known for its care for books and manuscripts. Since the early days of Islam, writings from the Prophet (PBUH)PBUbh to kings and princes, letters to Abu Bakr concerning charity, to Umar regarding Zakat shares, and to the people of Yemen on various aspects of jurisprudence were all documented. In addition, the scribes of revelation transcribed what was dictated to them. Yet, Islamic civilization did not stop there; it preserved these texts, whether in wording or meaning until they reached us. This underscores the value placed on books and libraries, which contributed to documenting Islamic history. For example, the book al-Misbāḥ al-Muḍi' fī kitāb al-Nabi al-Ummī wa Rusulih ila Mulūk al-Arḍ min ʿArabī wa ʿajamī (The Luminous Lamp in the Book of the Illiterate Prophet, and His Messengers to the Kings of the Earth from Arabs and Non-Arabs) by its author Muhammad bin Ali bin Hadida al-Ansari, who compiled the texts of the of the Prophet's addresses. Thus, Islamic libraries have been full of books and publications on various arts throughout the centuries. The importance of this research lies in introducing the State of Qatar and explaining its dedication to Qur’anic publications for over half a century. These publications were printed by the Department of Heritage Revival at the Ministry of Education and Higher Education, al-Ummah Magazine, affiliated with the Sharia Courts, the Department of Islamic Affairs, and the Department of Islamic Research and Studies, affiliated with the Ministry of Endowments and Islamic Affairs. Additionally, the research presents evaluative solutions to enhance these Qur’anic publications in the State of Qatar. The research employed both inductive and analytical approaches to examine the terminology and sections of the study. It concluded with several findings, notably that all publications were distinguished by free publishing. Furthermore, recent publications of the Ministry of Endowments and Islamic Affairs stood out for their excellent edition, high-quality printing, and some other results.
