Meanwhile, the BWA program staff member who handed over the Quran, Fairuz Abadi, said that the people in the two districts were very happy with the arrival of the Quran holy books from BWA. They felt very helped by the giving of the holy books, especially those in remote areas.

On the other hand, he adedd, BWA would like to thank the waqif who have given waqf (Islamic endowment) to BWA, so that the distribution of the Quran waqf in West Java can be carried out.
