Kumayl Alloo (/ˈkuˈmeɪɫ ˈɔɫˈɫu/; Arabic: كُمَيْل أَللو, romanized: Kumaīl Allū) is a Tanzanian-American qāriʾ (Qur'an reciter) and research scholar.
He won the National IMAM Qur'an Competition in 2019,[1] the National Al-Qadr Qur'an Competition in 2020,[2] and the National IMAM Qur'an Competition again in 2021.[3][4] In 2022, he won 1st place in the Global Iqra' (اقرأ) Qur'an Recitation Competition held annually in Ontario, Canada—becoming the first Tanzanian-American to do so.[5] He has since judged on numerous tarteel and hifz competitions and has been invited to teach qira'at across North American madāris.[6][7] In 2023, Columbia University's Islamic Center appointed him a Muqri' (Arabic: مُقْرِئ, lit. 'reciter') and Mu'addhin (Arabic: مُؤَذِّن, lit. 'caller'), positions he continues to maintain.[8][9][10]
Alloo is currently a student at Columbia University and a researcher at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai.[11][12][13][14]
