This video explains how Muslim women are reviving long-lost traditions of reciting the Quran in public. There have been several trailblazers including; Shaykha Munira Abdu (1930s Egypt), Maria Ulfah (Indonesian Qariah), and Madinah Javed (UK based Qariah leading the #femalereciters movement).
Maryam Amir has created the app 'Qariah' which features over 60 female reciters representing cultures all around the world. The Qariah app aims to mainstream the term Qariah for women and ease accessing recitations of Qariahs. To find out more visit: https://www.qariah.app/
