The Saudi Quran reader and Sheikh Zaki Daghistani was born in Mecca in 1925, corresponding to 1354 Hijri. He has lost his eyesight at the age of 1 year old and a half after he was diagnosed with “smallpox” disease.
Sheikh Zaki Daghistani was able to memorize the holy Quran only by listening to it, and he was certified by Sheikh Ahmad Al Hijazi according to Hafs Aen Assem’s recitation “Tajweed” method, in 1396 Hijri. Also, he obtained a license in the “Tilawat” of the Quran in 1370, and he also started teaching the recitation rules of the holy Quran in 1374.
Sheikh Zaki Daghistani was teaching the holy Quran in Mecca in “Al Masjid Al Haram”, until he was appointed, in the Hijri year 1382, as a Quranic teacher by the ministry of education in a school of Quran memorization.
Sheikh Zaki was popular for his special and unique style of teaching the holy Quran and helping the students to memorize it. He also participated in several occasions and celebrations in Saudi Arabia, as he was one of the first Quran reciters in the country.

This is a very good site for the recitations of the Holy Quran. Sheikh Zaki Daghistani is one of the best recitors of the World. I always like to listen to the Holy Quran in his beautiful voice. I also like to ask my muslim brothers about conditions of Muslim Ummah in these days. What do you think is the reason behind this? Has Allah the Almighty left us alone? Why the condition is going to be the worst? I think this is happening because the muslims are not acting upon the teaching of the Holy Quran these days, and Prophet of Allah (peace be upon him) has prophecies about this age that :Nothing shall be left of the the Quran bet its writings. May Allah enable All the Muslim Ummah to follow the teaching of the Holy Quran. I will never forget this voice

Beautifull recitation of soerah Bakarah in a very soothing and calming way. Very good to find rest in and very good to listen to late at night. When everything is calm in the house and people gone to bed, then listen to this recitation and you will find yourself in a very spiritual state of mind.
Very soothing recitation. Mashaallah. He has a very beautiful tilawa called Tilawa Hijaziya. Allah yarhamuh.
