About Sama'

Sama' is a listening platform dedicated to inshad, madeeh, and sama' — bringing together the deepest organized archive of this art: hundreds of thousands of clips verified and attributed to their munshids, poems, poets, schools, and maqams.

We believe this great vocal heritage deserves a home worthy of it: a clean listening experience with no noise and no ads, a diwan-like memory connecting every performance to its poem and history, and tools that serve the devotee, the memorizer, and the researcher alike.

Most of this heritage was chanted and shared seeking Allah's pleasure and spreading love — and we carry it with trust: we show only what we are confident is accurate, we respond promptly to rights holders, and we keep the essence open and free for everyone.
