About Abdul Wali Al Arkani

Sheikh Abdul Wali Al Arkani (Abd al-Wali Amir Husayn Muhammad al-Arkani), born in Mecca in 1983 (1403 AH), is a Saudi Quran reciter and imam from the city's Arakanese (Rohingya) community. Trained at the Grand Mosque, he has served as an imam in Jeddah since the early 2000s and became known through recordings of the prayers he leads, broadcast by several Gulf radio stations.

Education

He memorised the Quran as a child in the study circles of the Grand Mosque in Mecca and graduated in 1418 AH (1997) from the Dar al-Arqam ibn Abi al-Arqam Institute attached to the Grand Mosque. His teachers include Sheikh Harun Zahir, imam of the al-Arkani Mosque in the al-Kudwa district, the late Sheikh Muhammad Kabir, former imam of the al-Nur Mosque in the same district, and Sheikh Abd al-Hamid Shams al-Hamdawi, a teacher at the Dar al-Arqam Institute. Sheikh Muhammad Idris Abbas, a teacher at the Grand Mosque, granted him an ijaza in the Hafs reading by way of the Shatibiyya.

Imamate

He first led the prayer at the age of thirteen, at the Sheikh Muhammad Salih Jamal Mosque in the al-Zahir district, then at the al-Yaghmur Mosque in al-Ka'kiyya and other mosques in Mecca. After moving to Jeddah, he served for about seven years as imam of the Mu'adh ibn Jabal Mosque in the al-Salama district.

In Sha'ban 1428 AH (2007), the ruler of Ajman invited him to lead prayers in the emirate alongside Mishary Rashid Alafasy. In Shawwal of the same year he was appointed imam of the King Fahd Grand Mosque (Jami' Khadim al-Haramayn al-Sharifayn) in the al-Murjan district of Jeddah.

Recitation

He recites in the reading of Hafs 'an 'Asim. His recordings, mostly taken from the prayers he has led, have been broadcast on Saudi Quran Radio, Abu Dhabi Quran Radio, Bahrain Radio and Saudi TV's Channel One.
