Quran should be taught with translation in universities of those provinces which currently do not do so, according to the text of the resolution. The resolution says that reading the Urdu translation of Holy Quran would open new avenues of knowledge for the upcoming generations.
The resolution was passed unanimously through the Assembly.
It may be recalled that recently, Punjab, the most populous province of Pakistan, decided to teach the Holy Quran with translation in its universities and imposed the condition of learning Quran with translation for obtaining a university degree.
