Politics to the Pursuit of Knowledge || Qari Dawood #2

Welcome to our second episode of the hifdhstatus podcast with our esteemed guest Ustadh Dawood.

Listen in as we discuss his journey to becoming a Hafidh in Hackney, the two separate stages he experienced in his memorisation and what initiated him to divert his energy from politics towards serving the community through the book of Allah سبحانه وتعالى.

May Allah سبحانه وتعالى place blessings into the hifdhstatus initiative and make it a source of motivation and inspiration for those embarking on their journey with the Qur'ān.

Allahuma Ameen!
