I am 7 and I want to learn Quran, but I want to listen to ladies recite. It makes it easier for me, sand and the sound of their voices encourages me to keep going. Please add a female reciter!
Hearing Qur'an recited by a voice that sounds like my own - that is, female - would be amazing and so helpful to me in trying to learn to recite more. Please add a female reciter or two!
It is extremely disappointing that more than half of the population is female and there is not one female Qur'an reciter available. Make sure your product is representative of the user. Add a female reciter now!
It would be a wonderful service to everyone who uses your site if you added to the literal voices of the reciters. As an educator, I would be more inclined to refer students to your website knowing that there are male AND female reciters.
This would also be incredibly important for young Muslim girls who are learning the Quran and are just beginning to think of their role in the Muslim community.
A WaPo article about this petition came out in 2015. At that time there were more than 175 signatures. In 2020, five years later, there are 347. Also, the goal is a statistically insignificant number (500) and how unfortunate is it that we couldn't reach it? Our Umma is comprised of at least 1.8 BILLION people.
I really want to have a female reciter on the Quran explorer and it would mean a lot to me
