Two MATAB alumni take hafazan runner-up at MTHQA 2024 and 2025
Putri Aminah Mohd Hanif (2024) and Putri Auni Khadijah Mohd Hanif (2025), MATAB alumni, were MTHQA hafazan runners-up for Malaysia. Watch them recite.
For two years running, a MATAB alumna has finished runner-up in memorisation (hafazan) at the International Al-Quran Recitation and Memorisation Assembly (MTHQA): one in 2024 and another in 2025. Both recited representing Malaysia.
- Putri Aminah Mohd Hanif: hafazan runner-up, MTHQA 2024
- Putri Auni Khadijah Mohd Hanif: hafazan runner-up, MTHQA 2025
On an international stage, every letter is heard. Firm memorisation has to come with correct pronunciation and fluent recitation, from the first verse to the last.
That is what we put first at MATAB. Students are guided to master makhraj, tajwid and fluent recitation throughout their 30-juz memorisation. We do not judge hafazan by how fast a student finishes. We judge it by the quality of the recitation.
Watch both full recitations above, as broadcast by Berita AlHijrah. Hear the quality of their recitation for yourself.
Congratulations to Putri Aminah and Putri Auni Khadijah, and to the families and teachers who guided them.
