Sheikh Ali As-Suwaisy

Sheikh Ali As-Suwaisy

Ali Hajjaj As-Suwaisy (1926-2001) was a famous Quran reciter, known in Egypt and across the world. He gained fame by emulating the late Sheikh Muhammad Rifat.

Sheikh Ali joined the Radio in 1946-47 and entered the Music Institute to study oud and music theory for four years when he saw the encouragement and success of his reciting. Sheikh Ali is admired for his use of maqam saba - his voice was considered especially suited to saba.

Sheikh Ali visited the UK on several occasions, in particular attending the London Central Mosque during Ramadan.
