Hamed shakernejad حامدشاکرنژاد

He is an Iranian Qari (reciter of the Qur'an). As such, many modern and young reciters try to imitate his style. Shakernejad won a world Qira'at competition on 15 March 1996 in Saudi Arabia. This win was followed by a gift from the king of Saudi Arabia, entering the Kaaba for an hour. This was the first time that an Iranian Qari had entered the Kaaba. In addition, Shakernejad is the first Iranian Qari who has had his own style of Qur'an reciting accepted by the leader of Iran.
