  1. I have listened only to him since 1995 and never stopped ever since. I listen to his recitation many times a day or all day. I feel his voice brings me closer to feeling of heaven. I feel each word he recites. By listening to him I know soura baghara almost by heart. Through me my family and friends also listen to his recitations, I admire his dedication towards teaching the loving Koran. I am positively jealous of all the good he is doing and his place in heaven.
    I have thought my children to listen to him before they sleep and while studying. They are now in university.
    My husband listen to another reciter.
    I am a modern woman, and I have lived in many different countries and right now I am in Canada.
    I wished he would do the prayers somewhere I could pray friday prayers with him.

  5. Assalamu alaikum WrWb, jazakumullahi khoir for the beautiful recitation. I thought that I should mention that there are some harakah differences in Suratul Saf, in recitation of Saad Ghamidi and the written surah (in this same page) for example musoddiqon lima is written musaddaqon lima, mubasshiron is written as mubashsharon, bil bayyinaati is written as bil bayyanaati in ayah number 6. I have checked the Mushaf, it is the same as Ghamidi recited, however the printed book and the typed version of this website are different.

  6. My no. 1 favorite dear sheikh.
    The best recitation of Surah Al Baqarah, An Nisa, Al Isra, AzZumar (his younger version), al Lail, Al Qamar. AshSham and more. I listen to your recitation Al Baqarah every day while driving to work and back home every day, but never get bored, MashaAllah. That is the beauty of Quran.
    Jusr wish that I can find more recordings other than the classic ones.
    May Allah bless you sheikh, your recitations are more popular than any song of any singer in this world.

  7. You must listen to cheikh Al Ghamidi's koran recitation. I am very much touched by his beautiful tajweed may Allah give him abode in janet Elfardous for his noble work.
    Every time I listen to his koran recitation I feel my heart is filled up with joy and happiness and this makes me come much closer with my thought to my Allah the most high the most generous.
    I also thank all other cheikhs who took part in the koran recitation.

  8. I bought juzu amma recitation during my hajj of 2005 without knowing the name of the reciter. Myself and my children enjoyed it so much that we were able to commit it all to memory just from listening very frequently. I feel fortunate to discover this very pleasant voice again. I cannot get tired from listening to his recitation. In sha Allah it will now become easier to memorize the quran

  11. May Allah Subhana grant us the gift of reciting Quran as Shaikh Saad Ghamidi recites, Ameen. But most of all we must learn the message contained by the Creator for us human beings. Unfortunately in our part of the world since arabic as a language is not spoken or understood. We try very hard to understand the Glorious Quran and the meaning contained therein.

  12. Aslm.
    May Allah reward you Sheikh Sa,ad, Amin! Brothers and sisters we should allocate time to listen and recite Qur,an as well as enjoin others to. My target is to establish islamic radio and TV stations in Nigeria so that more people will leave to understand islam.This is my target for this short world life, you can join me!My Allah bless our sheikhs!
