I first heard this Qari when we temporarily re-located to Syria and I found his voice to be heart warming and soothing. I am surprised that I have not come across his CDs in other places and that he is little known. MashAllah, thank you for beautifying the recitation of the Coran. Alhamdulillah. Very peaceful and perfect voice, I am listening most of my time.I would reckon, that Mr. Khalifa is one of the best Qaris in modern day Quran Recitations. Since the time, I have listened to his recitations, I am literally spellbound; may ALLAH always bless him, Amin
Thanks.'an with your voice.
The first time I heard his voice, i was spellbound by his recitation. It was in makkah during 2011 hajj. I bought all the CD's juz Amma and Juz Tabarah. I love his recitation. I'm always listening to them, my kids too. I was more delighted when I saw his complete recitation on app store this Ramadhan. It was the best gift I had. And now this! may Allah bless him with the choicest of Jannah and may he be among the best reciters in Jannah.
Allah has shown us his power of creating a beautiful voice through many of his creatures and among humans as well. The best example for me is Khalifa At Tunaiji, may Allah protect him and prolong his life. The unparalleled literary style of the Quran and its deep thoughts together with powerful recitation of Sheikh Khalifah is the best thing ever for me to listen to in this life.
