FAQs

Q: Would I have to memorize the entire Surah?
A: It is expected but not a requirement for the participants to have the entire Surah memorized. Memorization is a bonus when scoring points. Participants will be allowed to recite using the Mus’haf but will lose points.

Q: What is the judging gonna be like?
A: The entire judging criteria and expectations will be made more clear after in January, when the Board and Exec gets to meet the judges, Inshaa Allah.
