Qari Hajjaj Ramdan Hindawi reciting surahs Yunus & Hood in Pakistan

Now I was never a huge fan of the mujawwad style of recitation where the reciter recites really really slow, until I met Qari Hindawi. This is one of the greatest recitations ive heard in a long time and I felt compelled to put the video up for yall to see.

Enjoy!!

Habits...

Repel the thought, for if you don't, it becomes an idea. So repel the idea, for if you don't it will become a desire. So fight against that (desire), for if you dont it will become a determination and a passion. And if you dont repel that, it will become an action. And if you dont replace it with its opposite, it will become a constant habit. So at that point, it will be difficult for you to change it.'
-Ibn al Qayyim ra
