Sit back, relax, and enjoy this thought provoking and tear-jerking conversation about memorising the Qur'an.

Episode #002 - Hifz- Imam M. yahya - Qur'an Time with El Qalyubi

The Giant of Mauritania, Shaykh Muhammad ibn Mahfouz, d. 1442/2021, passed away recently leaving a huge void in Mauritanian scholarship. May Allah SwT make him among the Siddiqeen and raise him with the Sahabah! Ameen! 

In this episode, we are joined by someone whom the Shaykh referred to as his "son", Sh. Abu Ubaid (Dar Al-Arqam - London, UK). We attempt an obituary-like format. We learn about life in Mauritania, his relationship with the Shaykh, the Shaykh's daily routine, the depth and breadth of his knowledge, his impeccable memory, his worship and his relationship with the Qur'an, and why Sh Abu Ubaid considered him from Ahlul-Qur'an.
