Qari ‘Abdul-Basit‘ Abdus-Samad (1927–1988) (Arabic; ??? ?????? ??? ?????), (Kurdî; Ebdulbasit Ebdussemed), was a Egyptian Qari (reciter of the Qur'an). As such, many modern reciters try to imitate his style. The Qari had won three world Qira'at competitions in the early 1970s. ‘Abdus-Samad was one of the first huffaz to make commercial records of his recitations, and the first president of the Reciters' Union in Egypt.

In 1950, he came to Cairo where Muslims in many mosques were captivated by his recitations. On one occasion, when he was reciting verses from Surah al-Ahzab, he was asked to recite for longer than his allotted 10 minutes by the audience, and he continued to recite for over an hour and a half; his listeners were captivated by his mastery of pitch, tone and the rules of tajweed (Qur'anic recitation).

Travels:

Abdul-Samad traveled extensively outside Egypt; in 1961, he was recited at the Badshahi Mosque, in Lahore, Pakistan as well as reciting in one of the biggest Tablighi Madrasa's in Bangladesh, the Hathazari Madrasa in Chittagong. He visited Indonesia (1964/1965), Jakarta, and recited the Qur'an in that country's biggest Mosque. The audience filled the entire room of the mosque, including the frontyard; about a 1/4 of a million people were hearing his recitation till dawn. Also in Pekalongan (city of Batik), he recited at the Jame 'Mosque (Kauman Mosque), His recitation captivated the audience. He also recited for more than two hours at the Darul Uloom Deoband's 100 years of celebration in the early 1980s where scholars from all over the world were present in the thousands. In 1987, while on a visit to America, ‘Abdus-Samad related a story from one trip he made to the Soviet Union, with then Egyptian president Gamal Abdel Naser.

‘Abdus-Samad was asked to recite for some leaders of the Soviet party. ‘Abdus-Samad recounts that four to five of his listeners from the Communist Party were in tears on hearing the recitation, even though they did not understand what was being recited, but they were cried, touched by the Qur'an.

Indira Gandhi, an Indian prime minister and political leader always felt touched by his recitation and would stop alongside to appreciate his recitation.
