My YouTube Qur’an Favorites from this Ramadan
Share
Alhamdulillah one of the things I have found myself doing more this Ramadan is searching the YouTubes for Quran videos and recitation. I have posted my personal favorites below. There’s no particular rhyme or reason to these – they just happen to be ones I enjoyed. So check them out and feel free to post your YouTube Qur’an favorites.
One small thing before getting to that. With the last 10 nights approaching, I wanted to share this recording of a supplication from Witr done by Ahmed al-Ajmy. I got this recording roughly 6-8 years ago or so, and I listen to it every Ramadan. Something about it that’s just moving, and is hands down my favorite recording of supplications that I have heard.

JazakAllah khair for the resources!
Note: Surah Yasin- not just a kid, an awesome kid mashaAllah! There’s more videos from him but he’s older now, still good recitation Alhamdulillah.
As-salamaulikum,
This is a recitation from Surah Ash-Shuara by Mishaary Afaasy
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_1bxcUnyH2U
By far one of my favorite of ‘Afasy’s!
Also try his Surah Muhammad from 1424. Just amazing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_ooG1Wwfs8&fmt=18
I’ve been listening to that recitation of Surah Muhammad since you posted it on your blog way back br Saqib! Jazaak Allahu khayran!
Ahem, if I may.

Beginning Surat Al Haqqah x 2 and then fast forward to 14:00 for beginning of Surat Al Balad. Masha Allah, the man indeed.

The following is by far the BEST recitation from al-Afasy that I’ve EVER heard:
Surah al-Hujuraat:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KmZpaxejBBc
You may notice it sounds a bit different. It’s old school Mishari, older Mishari audios are much better IMO. Download the complete surah from islamway.com
Agreed…Old school Mishary is awesome mashaAllah.
I love this recitation and used it for myself for Surah Hujurat.
Although for some reason most versions of this particular recording you find like on aswatalislam and maybe islamway have a bitrate issue and he sounds a bit sped up. This YouTube version. however, has an almost perfectly corrected version.
Assalamu Alaikum,
Here is a video of Shaykh Salah Bukhatir (the brother of munshid Ahmed Bukhatir) reciting Surah al-Qalam.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TWm7vw7SED4
wa alaykum salam wa rahmatullah
no way they’re brothers! Never knew that.
Assalamualikum
When i was checking out the links….i was wondering what about Sheikh Salah Bukhatir???…
alhamdulillah feel blessed to be able to pray the qiyam behind him….you will not realise he has completed 8 raka’as…….besides you’ll yearn for more…
.here’s one of his video” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JqP6Tki3P78&feature=related
@sr amatullah : Salah bukhatir IS Ahmed bukhatir’s brother….
Al salaamu alaykum,

AsSalaamu alaikum,
This is Sheikh Mustafa Ismail. He could be considered the originator of the Egyptian style, if not I find him the best.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HmnCHswmuno&feature=related
Here is another of his recitations which is longer but also great.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M5gqi0Q3UUE&feature=related
It is a recitation from surah Maryam with captions along with corresponding scenes from the Iranian movie St. Mary.
al Hassan al Basree stated while clarifying the meaning of contemplating over the Qur-aan:
I say [Shaikh ‘Abdur-Razaaq]: May Allah have mercy upon al Hassan, had he seen some of the reciters of our time, those who have been deceived by beautifying their voices and the letters of the Qur-an and chanting them, while they are negligent of and disregard its boundaries. Rather the people listening to them are also are taken by the proper pronunciation of the letters and the recital while being negligent of the meanings and contemplating over the speech of Allah.
This is not a criticism of correctly practicing the Tajweed of the Qur-an, chanting it and beautifying ones voice with it, it is only a criticism of going out of one’s way to properly pronounce its letters without caring or paying attention to the orders within it, the very reason why the Qur-an was revealed. It has reached the point where you do not see that they fear Allah, rather you do not see them acting upon the Qur-an, not in mannerisms nor actions.
You see a reciter from amongst them who has memorized the Glorious Qur-an, correctly pronouncing its letters yet he shaves his beard or lowers his garments beneath his ankles, rather you find him neglectful of the Salat, either all together or in congregation, amongst other forms of evil.
It has reached the point where one of them, and from Allah alone do we seek aid, opened up a party for a sinful woman by reciting some versus of the Qur-an, he recited the Qur-an in between her songs. High above is the speech of our Lord from being tarnished by the likes of these people, and it is sufficient for me to say what al Hassan, may Allaah have mercy upon him said,
[Causes of the Increase and Decrease of Eemaan by Shaikh ‘Abdur Razzaaq ‘al-Abbaad]
