An Imagination Beyonde!

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!
