Ibrahim Ahmed, a man living in Egypt's Al Sharqia province, has five sons and five daughters all of who are memorizers of the Holy Quran.
In an interview with Aqidati Magazine, he said it was due to his love for the book of God that he decided to urge his children to learn the Quran by heart.
Ibrahim Ahmed, known in Egypt as Abu al-Mashayikh (the father of prominent Quran activists), described it as a Divine blessing to see all his children so committed to memorizing the verses of the Holy Book.
He hopes that his sons Ahmed, Muhammad, Ibrahim, Nour and Yusuf will become Quran scholars.
One of his sons, Ahmed, won the top prize in Saudi Arabia's international Holy Quran competition a few years ago.
In Egypt, his family has been termed the "miracle of the 21st century" and some say their achievement should be included in the Guinness World Records.
