Erbil Elderly Vendor Refuses To Sell Until Daily Quran Recitation Is Complete

An elderly Kurdish man sits on the sidewalk reading a book next to his small street stand near the historic Erbil Citadel in Erbil, Kurdistan Region, Iraq. The image captures a serene moment of quiet and reflection, contrasting with the blurred motion of busy passersby in the heart of the capital city. The Citadel, a UNESCO World Heritage site, stands in the background as a witness to the daily life and resilience of the city's inhabitants (Photo by Sabur Rashid/NurPhoto).
