Biography

Sheikh Fares Abbad (b. 1980, Yemen) is a Yemeni Quran reciter who began leading Tarawih prayers at Bilal ibn Rabah Mosque in Sanaa in 1994 and recorded a complete murattal Quran in Yemen. He has served as an associate imam in Saudi Arabia's Eastern Province, and his recitations are broadcast on the Al-Majd Quran channel.

How to recognise Sheikh Fares Abbad's voice

Two things tend to place Fares's voice: a soft, unhurried pace that suits long listening; and careful, textbook articulation, which is why students are often pointed to him. That is our own listening note to help you place the voice, not a sourced biographical claim.

Identify Fares Abbad by voice

If you heard this voice at the masjid, in a video or on someone's phone and weren't sure it was Fares Abbad, open RecitID and tap Detect. It names the reciter and the exact ayah from a few seconds of audio.

It works the same way for any qari: RecitID's reciter identification feature matches the voice itself against 300+ reference reciters, so it can name a qari you have never heard before.
