Our Imam

Imam Ahmed Sadiq

Imam Ahmed’s presence is a warm embrace that touches the heart and soul. Born in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, his journey of spiritual education has been remarkable. He studied at a prestigious Islamic University during his early years and was eager to learn the various sciences of the Quran. Imam Ahmed’s pursuit of knowledge has led him to traverse the globe. He traveled to various countries, including the UAE, seeking wisdom under the guidance of prominent scholars. Alhamdulilah, after a few years, Ahmed had memorized the Quran in the riwayat of Hafs An Asim under the supervision of Sh. Insan FalFul and Sh Qari Ismail. Currently pursuing the Riwayat of Qalon A’n Nafi’, his dedication to the sacred knowledge of the Quran is a source of inspiration for us all.

His voice, a divine gift, resonates with an ethereal beauty that transcends mere sound. Beyond his remarkable voice, Imam Ahmed is a dedicated khateeb, teacher and mentor. He passionately shares his profound understanding of the Quran, imparting its teachings with a patience and clarity that inspire learners of all ages and levels. His Quran classes are not just lessons; they are transformative journeys that bring the timeless wisdom of the Quran to life. With a heart full of empathy, he helps each individual navigate the verses and meanings, fostering a deep and meaningful relationship with the Quran.

Imam Ahmed’s commitment goes beyond the classroom. He tirelessly dedicates himself to guiding our community members on their spiritual journeys. From the youngest to the oldest, he provides unwavering support, helping individuals hone their understanding of the Quran and enrich their connection with Allah. His approach is not just about education; it’s about fostering a holistic sense of spirituality and personal growth.

In the heart of our Bukhari Community Centre and Masjid, Imam Ahmed stands as a shining example of love, compassion, and devotion. His beautiful voice uplifts our prayers, his teachings nourish our souls, and his presence fills our hearts with a sense of belonging. We are blessed to have Imam Ahmed continuously teach classes to further enrich the greater Ottawa Community.
