Bismillah
I was invited to attend the enrichment course hosted by Jam ‘Eyyatul Qurra on the study of 57 ways of recitation for Imam Hafs RA, and being a qiraa-aat student, there was no ways I was going to pass up this opportunity. It started last night and it is being recorded, so anyone still wanting to join may do so. It is free of charge.
The text is in Arabic and is translated and explained by Sheikh Imtiyaaz Isaacs. Due to time constraints, he does not translate word-for-word and nor does he explain terms that we are expected to know, like “tawssut” and “mutawaatir”.
In order to give an overview of the science of qiraa-aat, he started off explaining that there are ten qurraa, and each had two outstanding students. In the case of ‘Asim, his two students, Hafs and Shu’ba, were outstanding not only for their perfection of their recitation, but because they would not accept remuneration of any kind – Not even their students carrying their bags for them. Why? They feared coming on the day of Qiyaamah and being told that they already received their remuneration in the dunya! SubhanAllah! May Allah SWT make us true people of the Qur’an. Aameen.
