Al-Sudais to lead Tarawih prayers By Ahmad Wahaj Al-Siddiqui Saudi Gazette MAKKAH – Dr. Abd-ur-Rahman Al-Sudais, Imam of the Grand Mosque, will lead the Tarawih prayers this Ramadan as usual, Sheikh Saleh Bin Abd-ur-Raman Al-Hussein, chief of the Presidency of the Affairs of the Two Holy Mosques, told Saudi Gazette. This has virtually put a stop to all the rumors circulating on some websites that he has been barred from leading the prayers. “They are only rumors and nothing is further from the truth,” Al-Hussein said. Dr. Al-Sudais is on annual leave and will be present on the first day of Ramadan to lead the prayers as usual. Apart from Dr. Al-Sudais, the Tarawih prayers will be led by Dr. Saud As-Sheraim, Al-Sheikh Abdullah Al-Johni and Al-Sheikh Maher Bin Hamad Al-Moaiqli, Al-Hussein said. Dr. Saleh Bin Humeid President of the Shoura Council, will lead the Fajr prayers, Dr. Osama Bin Al-Khyyat, the Dhuhr prayers, Dr. Khalid Bin Al-Ghamdi the Asr prayer and Al-Sheikh Saleh Al-Talib the Isha prayers. This arrangement will continue during the whole month of Ramadan, Al-Hussein added. Meanwhile, the Ministry of Islamic Affairs, Endowment, Call and Guidance has announced the live telecast of Traweeh prayers from the Holy Mosque in Makkah and the Prophet’s Mosque in Madina, the Saudi Press Agency (SPA) said. The prayers will be telecast in English translation from the Holy Mosque in Makkah on Saudi Ch1 and in French from the Prophet’s Mosque in Madina on Ch2. It is expected that 40 Islamic and Arab TV satellite channels will transmit the Traweeh prayers from Makkah and Madina.
The Sheikh made a mistake in the 3rd minute of the recording however even without the help of the mistake taker at the back he managed to correct it himself. Everyone makes Mistakes though. Being an Imam at the holy mosque is such a great honour and it might seem easy but if you look at they've got the responsibility or leading the prayers.
Assalaam u alaikum Bro Anonymous 1, I'm just curious, where did you get that article from? Are you sure its this years? I have not read or heard any rumors that Sudais will not be leading taraweeh this year, as the article indicates. But I do recall such rumours being rampant last year at this time on account of him being absent from leading prayers for about 3-4 months, so perhaps is dated? Perhaps its last years? If you can, please do shed some light on this issue Jazka'Allah khair Assalaam u alaikum

Akeed. So many verses with similar grammar and words, differing only slightly. Alhamdulillah, anyone who memorises the Quran is a genious|!
my qiraat teacher was saying... learning Qiraat is a reli difficult topic... its more difficult than being a doctor!!
To reli go into learning the different types of recitation with one word having different styles...reli requires a genious!!!
