As busy as
the day was, she kept following me all about. No attention was paid to her
till the office curtain was dropped. I hoped I’ld be able to make some changes
to my yet-to-be-completed php code upon getting home but the story turns to
become a different one entirely. Won’t
you leave me alone and let me be? I told her! But she refused to leave. Into
the bathroom I ran. yet, obstinate was she. Now I see she wants me to tell
the world about her. And now I’m about to tell you.
She was a
thought which flew in when I launched the Music player on my lapi this
afternoon at my only-me-and-my-laptop office in a quiet but army-guarded province. The
voice I was listening to was ever interesting to me. The sonorous and steady
voice of Abdullahi Al-Mathroud (A Qura'n Reciter). If you’re a non muslim reading
this now, please do not close. Continue reading. It’s a imagination beyonde!
I have heard
some people tell me I have a nice voice while reading the Quran. (not to praise myself but to create a starting point) They did say
they like it. Infact, some do force me to lead the prayer because of my voice.
They say they like it a lot. This made me to ponder: what if you listen to my
teacher’s voice? You’ld make him your imam? Hmm
I have heard
several narrations of a man in Ibadan whose voice is sparking! So many dropped
their own personal voice to imitate this man. I know of 5 guys who have almost
mastered his tone. You’d think this shayk is the reciter if you hear these guys
reciting the Quran . what about those I do not know?
Going a bit
further, could you help google search the word Abdullahi al mathroud and see
what people have said about his recitation? It’s superb. Millions of people all
over the world like his voice a lot. But you should note friend, the same Quran
is being read.
Before you
challenge me, let me add your favourite reciter, Shaykh Abdur rahman as sudais. the imam of the Grand
mosque in Mecca, Saudi
Arabia, his recitations go
deep in the listeners’ heart, fill it with fear of God, and when this renown qāriʾ
cries, it forces any one to cry out loud!
A Christian friend once told me, “I love this music” sorry
friend, this isn't a music, it’s the word of Allah!
Even to add him, Adul Basit bn samad was also a great
recite. ‘Abdus-Samad was asked to recite for some
leaders of the Soviet party. ‘Abdus-Samad recounts that four to five of his
listeners from the Communist Party were in tears on hearing the recitation,
although they didn't understand what was being recited, but they cried,
apparently touched by the Qur'an.
I’m yet to land. Have you ever imagine how the voice of the
pious predecessors would look like? Think about it, the previous generation,
those before them, those before them, those before them, back to the generation
of the companions of the prophet, peace upon them all!
Let the thought be deep! How do
you think the voice of The messenger of Allah would be if we can almost dance
to the recitations of our people today?
Al-Bara' bin `Azib (May
Allah be pleased with them) reported: I heard the Prophet
(sallallaahu ’alayhi wa sallam) reciting Surat Wat-Teen Waz-Zaitun (Chapter 95)
during the `Isha' prayer. I have never heard anyone reciting it in a more
beautiful voice than his.
How i wish it was recorded! Beyond imagination
A step further please. Do you remember an
angel recited the Quran to the prophet? Majesty is My lord, it’s beyond
imagination! How is the recitation of the angel? If the recitation of the
prophet could be the best in the world!
The Quran is indeed a miracle from Allah.
And if Allah, the creator of me and you is to recite the Quran with his own voice on the day of judgement? Majesty is my
lord! How is it going to be that day?
The Prophet (sallallaahu ’alayhi wa sallam) said, "He who does not recite the Qur'an in a pleasant tone is not of us.''
Read the Quran with pleasant tone please!
