Update: This is Shalawi Siraje. He is a hafidh from Uganda who has been offered a job as an imam after a video of him beautifully reciting the Qur’an whilst cleaning a Mosque went viral.
“Many people think that Islam is for the Arabs, but they are wrong. Islam is for all creatures on this Universe. That is why when I was reciting, many people made comments maybe thinking this was impossible because I am black, not well-off, and a cleaner. But rather the truth is, the Qur’an is not just for Arabs, it is for the whole of mankind.”
