In a unique scene within the Erbil market a citizen named Osman Ahmed Marouf has continued reading the Holy Quran for 30 years in front of the city s ancient Citadel. Mam Osman, who is 80 years old earns his living by selling cigarette packs and lighters. Every day before starting his work, he follows a fixed schedule of reading one part Juz of the Holy Quran. Only after he finishes his reading does he begin his daily trade. Through this routine, he completes a full recitation Khatm of the Quran once a month. Despite his advanced age this citizen is seen in the same spot daily and has become a prominent symbol of the market. As he indicates this reading has become an inseparable part of his daily life.
