Qariah - Empowering Women Quran Reciters
Qariah is an iPhone application that aims to mainstream the term "Qariah" for women and provide easy access to recitations by women Quran reciters. With over 60 women from various cultures around the world, Qariah showcases the diversity and talent of women in Quran recitation.
Each Qariah featured in the app has either memorized the Quran or holds an ijaza (license to teach) or is a national or international Quran competition winner. The app not only provides recitations but also aims to inspire women globally to pursue Quranic understanding, memorization, and contemplative recitation.
Qariah offers the Quran in multiple qira'aat (methods of recitation), including Hafs 'an 'Asim, Shu'bah 'an 'Aasim, Warsh 'an Nafi, Al-Doori 'an Abi 'Amr, Khalaf 'an Hamza, Qaloon 'an Nafi, and Qaloon Biqasr Almunfasil wa Iskaan Meem AlJam. This expansive collection ensures users can experience the beauty of the Quran through different recitation styles.
With Qariah, women and girls can now find inspiration and empowerment by listening to the recitations of talented women Quran reciters from around the world.
