List of people who memorized the Quran

This is a sub-article to Hafiz

This is a list of notable people who have completely memorized the Quran. Estimates of how many Huffaz (plural of Hafiz, being a single memorizer of the Quran) there have been range into the millions, across many ethnic, socio-economic, and geographical divisions. This is not a representative sampling of Hafizes. Centuries are given in Hijri years (AH).

This is a dynamic list and may never be able to satisfy particular standards for completeness. You can help by expanding it with reliably sourced entries.

1st century AH

2nd century AH

8th century AH

9th century AH
