Assalamuallaikum Dear Brothers in Islam
I come from a non muslim country & grew up in a town where there were not much muslims & closest masjid being over 40mins drive.
I had no opportunity of learning the quran although I secretly nutured the thought of reciting the quran melodiously.
At 30 yrs I got married & one of the gifts that I got was a Full Quran CD pack from an eldrely uncle of mine.He had bought this gift specially for me,on his return from performing Hajj which I part financed. After gathering dust for many months, I did make effort to listen to the CD & I was so amused by the recitation. Its been nearly 10 years since & hardly a day passes without me listening to a CD. Sometime for hours on MP3 listening to a loop.
All praises be to Allah,I have memorised Surah AlBaqara, Al Kahf,Al Mulk and a number of other surah's just by listening. I never drive without reciting what I have memorised & spend all my spare time doing same & trying to expand verses that I have memorised.
It has truly transformed me into a peaceful person & instilled in me a lot of strength to face many challenges in life. May Allah reward Sheikh Suddais for his beautiful recitation through the CD's. Allah chose him to guide me out of a state of Jahiliya.
Assalam u alaikum (WR)to all the muslims,

Sheikh Abdulrahman Al Sudaise is the good and greatest when it comes to Qur'an recitation with tajweed. Fortunately, I've been able to get his MP3 copies of full Qur'an which I play everyday. When I'm playing, I take Qur'an and follow him. In fact I can confidently tell you that this helped me to read the Qur'an perfectly.

Asalaamualaykum my brothers! I am only 16 and I am presently in an islamic school in England called the imam muhammad adam institute. When I was younger I headed into the wr8ng crowd. Fortunately thanks to Allah, my caring mother placed me in this excellent newly opened islamic school just before i turned 15. I always wanted to be a hafiz since childhood. But I did not know tajweed and the correct makaarij. So in this school I was taught how to recite the quran correctly. Then I was put in hifzz class. So I began to listen to Shaykh Soudais, and I fell in love with his voice. Thanks to Shaykh Soudais I fell in love with the quran and changed my life. He is my greatest role model after the Prophet Muhammad (saws). My Allah grant him and his family jannah, and the whole muslim ummah jannah, Ameen!!!
Asalam alaykum warhamtulillahi wabarakatu. Am a convertee after 28years of leading a christian life and from the day I stood strong in my Ibada I realize how much time I wasted and Alhamdulillah I have managed to keep my faith despite my fallen marriage from the man who left me with 3kids to support them on my own. I have vowed to die in Islam and try as much as possible to stick to this.
The first voice of Quran in my Islamic life was that of Sudaiz and has remained my choice for ever. Each day that passes this inclines me towards learning more of the holy book. The best of the Surahs I always listen to is Rahman and Yassin.
May Allah grant others the gift of knowing Islam and grant us maghfirah in this world and the hereafter.
Bravo bravo bravo, ya Sheikh Kabir Abi Al-Sudais for Friday's event.I would continuously be so glad about you pending my departure for the next world.Al Wahhab,who chose you,had given you all what is needed to be a universal khalifah-whether it is wisdsom,the two kinds of knowledge and all that.I am praying to our lord Al Rahman for unlimited and unending peace,mercy and blessings for you.As a result of the Prophet of Allah's nobility,ahl-ul-baits would be noble people in this world and the hereafter.Therefore you,Sheikh Kabir Abi Ash-Shuraim and Sheikh Kabir Abi Abdullah bun Abdal Azziz Al Saud and many others may have some form of connection with Rasul-ul-Allah.I am praying for the same for all of them.

Assalaam o Alaikum. I intend to share some facts. In fact I, being a muslim, reciting Quran after passing class VI and thankful to my teachers who helped me in this regard. But I must confess that after listening the recitation by Abdul Rahman Al Sudais, I have to make lot of corrections specially in better pronunciation. In fact I can confidently tell you that this helped me to read the Qur'an perfectly. May Allah bestow his blessings on him and continue to increase his knowledge so that every muslim across the world benefit from him and help us to recite QURAN in a perfect way.
First of all, I am a Gambian lady, in West Africa. I and my family are great fans of Shiekh Al Sudais. He is the most popular Quranic reciter in this part the world. MashahAllah! subhanAllah! May Allah bless him. May Allah grant us all Jannat al firdous. His voice, his tune, his recitation is mashahAllah great. I just love his emotional way of recitation. When he makes supplication, he make almost everyone cry. Our faith increases. He is the best reciter of the holy Quran. I wish that my only son recites the Quran as he does. May Allah the Almighty bless him and bless us all.

Assalam alaikum,
Since I started persuing Islamic Education, I never knew of any other reciter but him. I cherish his Qiraa very much and would like to recite like him. May Allah reward him abundantly and all the reciters of our holy book and give them and all of us the tawfiq of putting it in our lives and following it to the latter. We pray that some institutions should be started to keep this qiraa of our time. We have a small Madrasa in Kenya, kitale trans-nzoia we hope to make it tahfid quran. Alhamdulillahi .
Salaam everyone,
I love Sheikh Sudais as a recitor and the way he reads is like you are there behind him and listening to his beautiful and amazing recitation and when he does the khutm-ul-quraan it feels like that you are there making the dua with him. I want to meet him when my family and I go for Umrah. May allah(swt) give us all a chance to recite just like him Inshallah. May allah give him and his family a long and happy life and give sheikh sudais voice even more beautiful and good.
Salaam.

SUBHANALLAH shaykh sudais must be the best reciter in the world because of his melodious recitation of the quran and dua qunut. His recitation is so beautiful that it reflects the picture of many verses in the glorious book which speaks about various topic like pain of fire, the happy and peaceful life of jannah, last day, hashar etc. Oh! Allah reward the reciters of the quran with the greatest reward as it is your promise, & early you do not fail in your promise oh the most gracious!!!!
