- 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, socioeconomic, and geographical divisions. This is not a representative sampling of Hafiz. 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.
