Introduction to the "Tabyanan to Everything" Competition - Season 3
Peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah, may Allah bless you with goodness, dear guests. This broadcast is dedicated to announcing the names of the top performers in the Ramadan competition "Tabyanan to Everything" in its third season.
I remind you that the goal of this competition is to develop the ability to derive knowledge from the Book of Allah the Almighty, extract its treasures, and apply them to reality, so that each of us may walk in the light of the Quran and extract appropriate situations from it in all stages of our lives.
Indeed, there was a good participation last season, and despite some technical difficulties, the brothers and sisters were patient and participated with us from dozens of countries around the world. And by the grace of Allah the Almighty, the competition was rich with beautiful questions that helped us prepare, thanks to the winners and winners of the past two seasons. May Allah reward them with goodness.
We now announce the names of the "top performers," and I say top performers because everyone who attended this competition with the intention of benefiting, increasing their love, glorifying, and understanding the speech of Allah is a winner and rewarded by the permission of Allah the Almighty. The results are astonishing and promising for good, revealing a wonderful intellectual, spiritual, and moral awakening among the youth.

Brief About the Winners and Their Stories with the Quran
1. Duaa Ahmed Badr (First Place)
She is 23 years old, specializing in natural therapy from the University of Jordan. She completed memorizing the Quran in her final university year, and she considered the Quran her companion and comfort in the student housing.
She used to search for messages from Allah to her in every page she memorized, and she would review various reflections and interpretations (such as the interpretation of Al-Nabulsi, Al-Zhalal, and Al-Saadi) before starting to memorize any new surah. She is now a Quran teacher and strives to apply the verses to the reality of her students.
2. Mariam Lababidi (Second Place)
The surprise is that Mariam is only 16 years old! Despite the difficulty of the competition questions that may challenge experts, she excelled. Mariam and her family (Ibrahim, Aya, and Huda) represent a "House of Quran," as they hold licenses with a connected chain of transmission.
Mariam says that this competition made Ramadan this year the most beautiful Ramadan in her life, as she transitioned from mere "recitation completion" to "contemplation and understanding of meanings," which had a great impact on her prayer and certainty in Allah.
3. Abdullah Shakhloun (Second Place Tied)
He is 22 years old, studying in the Faculty of Economics, Accounting Department in Libya. He is also from a "House of Quran," as his siblings (Zainab and Ali) preceded him in winning previous seasons.
Abdullah says that the competition was a "new opening" for him with the Quran, as it alerted him to meanings in the verses that he would pass by without them crossing his mind. He prepared for the competition by reading collectively with his family and reviewing the interpretations of Al-Saadi, Al-Tahrir, and Al-Tanwir.
Closing Messages and Good News
The ages of these top performers promise a great future, and I advise them to fear Allah the Almighty to preserve this light; for knowledge is a light that is not attained by sins, and with gratitude, blessings last and increase.
The second good news:
The brothers who won in the past seasons are currently working on issuing the second edition of the book "The Pleasure of Contemplation." The first edition is available electronically for everyone, and we are working on developing the second edition to be richer and more beneficial, by the permission of Allah.
May Allah reward you with goodness, and we bless you all, and we look forward to meeting you in another beneficial live broadcast, if Allah wills.
Peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah.
