About Qari Ziyaad Patel
Qari Ziyaad Patel was born in Ladysmith, Kwazulu Natal, South Africa.
His early school years spanned across various schools where he took up
many leadership roles and was the key in initiating many structures for
learners at the particular schools in the region. During this period he
was elected chairman of the Representative Council of Learners, was
also a member of the Youth sector of the Schools governing body and was
an executive member of the African National Congress Youth League,
Ladysmith region. Ziyaad has also schooled at a Roman Catholic school in

His Islamic career path started in his young age. He began the
memorisation of the holy quraan at a tender age of 11. He completed his
hifz under the tutelage and guidance of his illustrious teacher, Mufti
Goolam Hassan Saib of De Deur (Khalifa to Hakeem Akhtar Sahib D.B) in
1994 at Ogies - Mpumalanga at the age of 14. He then returned to his
hometown of Ladysmith to continue perfecting his Tajweed under the
supervision of Hafiz Dr. Abdul Qadir Hansa Sahib (Senior Khalifa to
Moulana Maseeullah R.A), and thereafter proceeded to Cairo - Egypt to
study Tajweed Al-Makharej at the Al-Azhar University under the tutelage
and guidance of Sheikh Abdullah Atiya Bayomi, where he further underwent
Qiraah training. He was awarded a shahadah from Sheikh Abdullah Attiya
Bayomi, which was endorsed by Sheik Sayed Ali Tantawi, the most senior
sheik at Al-Azhar University.
On completion of his tajweed course and qiraah training in Cairo, Qari
Ziyaad moved on to Dublin-Ireland to resume his secular schooling. He
moved to Johannesburg in 2000 and went on to complete his Matriculation
Certificate at Lenasia Muslim School. He has just received a degree in
the field of Information Science from the University of Johannesburg.
He has travelled extensively. In Jerusalem - Palestine, he was given
