The Quranic activities will start again after several months under the health protocols, akhbarak.net website reported.
Quranic centers and institutes holding Quranic programs are required to provide disinfection and sanitization services and make sure that all of those attending the programs wear face masks and social distancing is maintained.
Earlier this week, Quran activists, people, preachers and prayer leaders in Egypt called on authorities to take steps toward resuming Quranic activities.
Quranic activities and many other religious and cultural programs have been suspended in Egypt since March as part of measures to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
