Surah Yaseen mp3 by Abu Bakr Al-Shatri
Abu Bakr Ibn Muhammad Al-Shatri, commonly known as Abu Bakr Al-Shatri and also called Abi Abdurrahmane, is one of the most admired Quran reciters of the modern era. He was born in 1970 in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, and originally from Yemen, he is widely loved for his soft, calming recitation that brings comfort and spiritual reflection to listeners around the world.
He began memorizing the Quran at a young age, showing strong dedication to Tajweed and correct recitation. He graduated in Quranic studies under the renowned scholar Sheikh Ayman Rushdi Suwaid and received his Ijazah in Hafs ‘an Asim in 1416 AH (1994). Four years later, he earned a master’s degree in accounting, but his true devotion remained connected with the Quran and Islamic service.
Throughout his career, he has led prayers in several prominent mosques across Saudi Arabia, including Al-Rajihi, Abdullatif Jamil, Said Ibn Jubair in Kandara, Attakwa in Al-Rawda, and Ash-Shuwaibi in Assalama. Today, he serves as the Imam of Al-Furqan Mosque in Hay Annassim, Jeddah. His voice, often described as tranquil and spiritually uplifting, has made him beloved both in Saudi Arabia and across the Muslim world.
He has been invited to numerous Islamic conferences, Quranic gatherings, and recitation events in countries such as Egypt, Morocco, Bahrain, South Africa, Kuwait, and others. In 2013, he also served as the chairman of the jury for the International Quran Recitation Competition at the Moscow Cathedral Mosque, highlighting his respected position among global reciters.
He completed two full audio recordings of the Quran, one in 1988 and another in 2006, both still widely listened to today. His accurate Tajweed, smooth recitation style, and emotional balance make his recordings especially beneficial for learners and spiritually motivating for listeners.
Beyond his public role, he is known for his humility and dedication to Islamic values. He is married and blessed with four children. His recitations continue to reach millions through Quran applications, online platforms, and global broadcasts, making him one of the most influential Quran reciters of his generation.
