Cape Town lovers of the Quran will be mesmorised by the recitation of the internationally recognized and distinguished qari Shaykh Qari Syed Sadaqat Ali Al Azhari from the United States of America, who will be visiting Cape Town this week.

A national tour starting this week will see him visiting Masaajid in Gauteng, KwaZulu Natal and the Western Cape.

Qari Syed Sadaqat Ali Al Azhari will be visiting Cape Town on the invitation of the Cape Town Islamic Educational Centre (CTIEC). A one day event is scheduled to take place in each city, with the Cape Town leg set to take place at the Masjidul Quds Centre in Gatesville on Sunday 4 September 2016 starting at Thuhr.
