Watch Beautiful Quran Recitation by Sheikh Qalwash (+Video)
In this footage, Sheikh Qalwash recites verses from Surahs al-Kahf (18) and al-Balad (90th) of the Holy Quran.
Qalwash, who died in February 2016 at the age of 77, was a senior member of the Arab country’s Quran Reciters and Memorizers Association.
Born in 1939 into a Quranic family, Qalwash learned the entire Quran by heart in his early teenage years and started reciting the Quran in different places at the age of 16.
He became an official Qari of Egypt’s national radio and television at 24.
Qalwash travelled to different countries for Quran recitation. He was among the first Egyptian Qaris who visited Iran after the victory of the Islamic Revolution in 1979.
His recitations were warmly received by Iranians during his many visits.
He also has a very beautiful Adhan (call to prayers) recitation that is heard from mosques frequented by Shias.
Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei has praised Master Qalwash’s beautiful Quran recitations.
