The Naat Recitation Competition was started by Innovation Olympiad to honor the most
revered person in history, our beloved Prophet (S.A.W). Join us in praising our holy
Prophet(S.A.W) by your enchanting and beautiful voices.
Qira’at (Male/Female)
The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever does not recite
the Qur’an with a melodious voice is not one of us." Sahih/Authentic. - [Abu Dawood]
Sincerity is owed to the Quran, which includes reciting it, mastering the rules of beautiful
recitation, knowing about its interpretation and the circumstances surrounding its revelation,
adhering to its laws, teaching it, and urging the faithful to follow it. Thus, by reading and
contemplating the Quran, one fulfils a duty and is rewarded. The Quran then serves as a witness
for one on the Day of Judgment after meeting this responsibility. The Quran is a proof for you
or against you, according to the Holy Prophet.
Innovation Olympiad is holding a competition for Qira'at in recognition of the Holy Quran's
dominance.
