Question

Salam, do you have to be a hafiz to do saba qari or can you be a non hafiz, jzk

Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu 'alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

Saba Qirat is a science of the various modes of reciting Quran. It is not a requirement for a person to be a Hafiz to do Saba Qirat.

And Allah Ta'āla Knows Best

“The responsibility of a haafiz is a great responsibility and neglecting this responsibility is extremely serious. It is imperative for the parents to encourage the child according to the child's capability and potential.”
