Qariah

Qariah App

About this app

→Global
We feature over 60 women representing cultures all around the world: from Tanzania to Indonesia, Australia to Spain, Morocco to Somalia, Canada to Pakistan, Algeria to Guinea, the Philippines to The Gambia, Singapore to Palestine, Nigeria to Malaysia, the United States to Egypt, Yemen to Mauritania and more.

→Qualified
Each Qariah has memorized the Quran or holds an ijaza (license to teach), or is a national or international Quran competition winner or a qualified Quran teacher. The app showcases women’s scholarship with Quran and aims to inspire women across the globe to pursue Quranic understanding, memorization, and contemplative recitation.

→Expansive
Listen to 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.

“Qariah” translates to a woman Quran reciter. While there are many public Qariahs around the globe in countries like Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Morocco, Algeria, Nigeria and Yemen, it is not a well known term in many Muslim communities in the west. Thus, the Qariah app aims to mainstream the term Qariah for women and ease accessing recitations of Qariahs…so that when little girls ask their mothers or aunts or sisters or homegirls, “Why are there no women Quran reciters?” The answer will be a resounding, “There are an uncountable number of them- and God willing, you and I can be them too!”

Ratings and reviews

Have always loved the app. However, more often than not, I find that I'm unable to hear the recitiations-the specific surah audio pages keep loading with the screen white. The loading never stops. As I said, whenever I visit the app to hear the recitations, I'm mostly unable to do so and find some other app to hear from.

I love this app. It's great but there are a few things that make it really difficult to use. One is that if you press the forward or backward button and the play button turns into a loading button and if you click that then it just takes you to the start of the surah which is super frustrating. But also there's no system for bookmarks so I have to take a screenshot everytime I go to the next Ayah. And my phone is full of screenshorts of the surah I'm currently reading. :"(

Samsung Note 9 review I was excited to try this after seeing the tiktok preview. After downloading found a lovely long list of readers. However one clicking the audio doesn't load. I've tried using different Internet connections so I'm not sure why it isn't loading on my phone. I will be trying with a different model phone later to be sure. The other thing I've noticed is the audios are from a certain ayah to ayah instead of a full surah, would love full surahs.
