In a question put to Sayed Mahmoud Al-Mosawi by the Bahraini daily newspaper Al-Waqt about the programs of the blessed month of Ramadan, Sayed Mahmoud Al-Mosawi said: there must be a return to the Qurʾan in the programs of the month of Ramadan.. It was published in issue 227 on Thursday 5/ 10/2006 CE. .

This is the text of the question and its answer..

Question
Do you believe that the existing program plans in the month of Ramadan are suitable, or do they need development? And how?

What is noticeable about the programs of the blessed month of Ramadan in Bahrain is that they have a social character more than other aspects; therefore the most affected in the social atmosphere are the programs that have extensive preparation and contain cultural or other content.. The successful programs are those held within small majlises or private diwaniyyas, so that the program is specifically for the frequenters of this place.

This is in terms of interaction with the programs.. and their type. But in the month of Ramadan what we need most are Qurʾanic programs, since the month of Ramadan is the spring of the Holy Qurʾan and its season prepared for drinking from its insights, especially programs of contemplation of the Holy Qurʾan, which make society interact with the Qurʾan so as to take from it insights for life. Some put their greatest effort in this virtuous month into known days of it, the days of occasions such as the mid-month night or the nights commemorating the passing of Imam ʿAli (a), although the entire month of Ramadan is known days, and it is in itself a season and an occasion that should rouse the resolve of our associations, our institutions and indeed our hawzas, which are absent from such seasons, so that the month of Ramadan may be an educational, training and knowledge program that casts its shadow over all the other months.
