Ability to recite the Quran: 14% of Pakistanis who had earlier learnt how to read the Quran now report difficulty in reading it.

According to a Gilani Research Foundation Survey carried out by Gallup Pakistan, 14% of Pakistanis who had earlier learnt how to read the Quran now report difficulty in reading it.

A nationally representative sample of men and women from across the four provinces who said that they had learned how to recite the Quran was asked, “Can you still read the Quran, or has it become difficult for you to do so owing to some illness, such as an eyesight problem?” In response to this question, 84% said that they could still read it, 14% replied that it had become difficult for them to do so, while 2% did not know or did not wish to respond.
