Publication of Digital Qurans Monitored by Malaysia Home Ministry
Home Minister Saifuddin Nasution Ismail said that the ministry would take immediate action if any mistakes are found without waiting for the errors to become serious.
“We do not wait until it becomes serious. We take this as our responsibility... meaning that if they (publishers) produce digital Quran, the Enforcement and Control Division of KDN (PK KDN) has the capability to handle it.
“I am confident it can reduce any potential errors in the production of the digital Quran... as well as the braille version,” he said.
He was speaking at a press conference after attending a meeting with KDN’s Quran Printing Control and Licensing Board (LPPPQ) in Kuala Nerus on Sunday.
He also said that all imported Qurans for distribution in the country remain subject to the Printing of Quranic Text Act 1986, and that from January to June this year, the ministry had seized 22,414 imported Quran copies valued at RM3.2 million that did not meet Malaysia’s standards.

During the program, he also launched the Malaysian Standard Braille Quran Writing Guidelines to ensure uniformity between braille and standard printed versions of the Quran. He also introduced the Tasheh System, which uses advanced technology for the final proofreading of the Quran.
