AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): An official with the Ahl-ul-Bayt (AS) World Assembly said books published by the assembly have been translated into 60 languages.
Speaking to IQNA at the 32nd Tehran International Book Fair, Hojat-ol-Islam Abbas Jafari Farahani said the assembly has published some 2,000 titles on different themes since its establishment 27 years ago.
He said they have been translated into different languages and distributed in countries where the languages are spoken.
In addition of the Quran and religious books, the titles cover a range of subjects, including Fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence), culture, society, politics, and science, the cleric noted.
The Assembly is an international non-governmental organization (INGO) that was established by a group of Shia elites in 1990 to identify, organize, educate and support the followers of Ahl-ul-Bayt (AS).
The 32nd edition of the Tehran International Book Fair was launched on Tuesday.
Some 2,400 Iranian and 800 foreign publishers have presented their latest books at the international event.
