The second season of "Dawlat Al-Tilawat," a Quranic recitation program, will premiere on November 13 and will be broadcast on CBC, Hayat, and Nas TV at 9 pm on Fridays and Saturdays. The program is produced by the Egyptian Ministry of Endowments in collaboration with the United Media Services Company. The show aims to discover and support talented Quranic reciters.
The first season of the program achieved significant success, attracting a large audience and highlighting young talents in Quranic recitation. It garnered over 3 billion views on its official platforms and pages. The program's format combines competition, talent discovery, and a focus on the art of recitation. A new judging panel has been assembled for the second season, comprising experienced figures in Quranic recitation.
The judging panel for the second season includes Sheikh Hassan Abd al-Nabi, Agent of the Quran Review Committee in Al-Azhar; Dr. Taha Abd al-Wahab, an expert in voice and melody; Sheikh Taha al-Nu'mani, a reciter at Amr ibn al-As Mosque; and Islamic preacher Mustafa Hosni. The program will also feature prominent Islamic scholars and celebrities as guest judges.
The second season of "Dawlat Al-Tilawat" will include a number of esteemed guest judges, including Dr. Osama al-Azhari, the Egyptian Minister of Endowments; Dr. Ahmad Nainaa; Sheikh Yaser al-Sharkawi; Sheikh Jaber Baghdad; and Sheikh Abd al-Fattah al-Tarouti. Other notable figures will also participate in the program.
The program's format allows for a mix of competition and showcasing new talents, with a panel of experts and scholars evaluating contestants and discussing various aspects of recitation. The winners of the second season will be announced during a ceremony on Laylat al-Qadr, similar to the first season.
In the first season, the winners were Ashraf Sayyef, Mohamed Kamel, and Omar Awad, who received prizes of one million Egyptian pounds each and the honor of leading prayers at Al-Hussein Mosque during Ramadan. The second season is expected to follow a similar format.
Two winners from the first season, Mohamed Kamel and Ashraf Sayyef, have begun recording a complete recitation of the Quran in studios owned by the United Media Services Company, with plans to broadcast it on a Quranic channel and platform.
