Biography

Abu Sa'id Uthman Ibn Sa‘id al-Qutbi, better known as Warsh (110-197AH), was a significant figure in the history of the Qira'at, or canonical methods of reciting the Qur'an. Alongside Qalun, he is one of the two primary transmitters of the canonical Qur'an reading method of Nafi‘ al-Madani. Together, their style is the most common form of Qur'anic recitation in the generality of African mosques outside of Egypt, and is also popular in Yemen and Darfur despite the rest of Sudan following the method of Hafs. The method of Warsh and his counterpart Qalun was also the most popular method of recitation in Islamic Spain. The majority of printed Mushafs today in North Africa and West Africa follow the reading of Warsh.

He died in 812CE.
