Sheikh Abdellah Marhoum's study of the Quran started from an early stage of his life “making him a Hafiz” at the young age of 14. He followed the narration paths tracing back to the noble individuals mentored directly from the Prophet Muhammad (SAW). Sheikh Marhoum obtained Ijazza in reciting The Quran in seven different ways. He has been taught different schools of thought in Islamic Jurisprudence (Fiqh) and Quranic intonation by renowned Scholars and Sheikhs including Hussein Merdas, Al-Samadi, and Al-Aeshi.
Serving as an Imam in Boston from 2008-2009, Sheikh Marhoum garnered popularity in leading prayer due to his resonating recitations. Subsequently, he was invited by an established Islamic Center in the Washington D.C area to lead prayers during Ramadan. His Family became attached to the vibrant Muslim community in the D.C area and have been residing there ever since. Sheikh Marhoum has been blessed with leading congregational prayers for communities from Boston to Charlotte and in collaboration with notable top Shuyukh. Given the opportunity, Sheikh Marhoum has lectured, recited in major universities and conventions attributing all praises to Allah.
He relishes the opportunity to teach the Quran to anyone interested. Sheikh Marhoum focuses on simplifying Tajweed rules for all generations to read the Quran in its proper form. He strives to teach the Quran in methods that are commensurate with our current time. Sheikh Marhoum encourages all generations to use the Quran as a moral compass for their daily decision-making. He wishes to gain his reward in Jannah by preserving the Quran as a vivid, present possession for anyone to have.
May Allah guide us all to His righteous path.
