Moroccan Music Icon Abdelaziz Stati Launches Quranic Recitation Contest for Ramadan

Thursday 30 May 2019, by Amine

The great maestro of Chaâbi, Abdelaziz Stati, the virtuoso of the violin, one of the greatest artists Morocco has ever known, the authority of festivals and public and private events (often, very often, well watered), is organizing for this end of Ramadan a competition of... Quranic recitation.

This is one of the pieces of information that make the profession lovable! Abdelaziz Stati, the very one who would have disowned his daughter for her musical choices, would be organizing a Quranic recitation competition, according to Alyaoum24 who claims that this still living legend revealed it himself, this Wednesday morning.

And that’s not all! It would be, according to the same source, the first activity of his brand new production company. That is to say... It starts with that! A Quranic recitation competition organized as an inaugural act by the new production company of Stati Abdelaziz.

And that’s still not all! No! Far from it! Stati took care to present the first candidate, and, for this purpose, the giant of chaâbi wrote in a most solemn tone: "âla barakati Allah! In order to satisfy the demands of the public, we will start publishing the videos, now, with our first participant: Mustapha Ghadoui".

Stati would also have said that the competition will last throughout the month of Ramadan on the occasion of the inauguration of "Stati Edition" for production and distribution.

Abdelaziz Stati also invites all those who want to participate in his competition to send videos with their full names and phone numbers, stressing that the names of the three winners will be announced on June 6. They will have prizes.

But... Who is the jury made up of? In fact, no one. The videos will be published online and those that will be the most successful (relative, subjective, yes, yes) will be the winners, from those who will participate by giving their opinion (Chaâbi fans?).

As Stati concludes: "Wa Allah waliy atawfiq!"
