Surah_Qaf By Sheikh Abdul Basit Abdus Samad - Heart Touching Voice

Sheikh Abdul Basith Abdus-Samad was an Egyptian Qari.He was born in a village called Armant in the southern part of Egypt.He memorized the Quran before he was 10 years old and learned all the seven readings of Quran. He used to be invited in the local mosques during Ramadan nights when he was just 14 years old. He was influenced by the famous reciter Muhammad Rifat.In 1950, he came to Cairo where his star shone with the recitation that made the other Muslims in the mosque amazed. He recited some of Suratul Ahzab (The Confederates) that reads Oh you believers, Allah and his Angels praise the Prophet. The audience was listening speechlessly as his legendary voice echoed throughout the mosque. Though he was supposed to recite for 10 minutes, he was requested to go on with his recitation for more than an hour and half. The audience was utterly thrilled by tone of this miraculous reciter.He is still one of the most regarded reciters and many modern day reciters try to imitate him. He is the only Qari who has won three-time world Qiraat competitions in the early 70's.
