Samia Mubarak is the founder of Quranic Ocean, a guided platform dedicated to building personal and emotional connections with Allah’s words. Samia spent most of her childhood and teen summers in Amman, Jordan, where she first began her journey in Quranic memorization, tajweed and Arabic grammar.

Samia completed her memorization of the Quran at age of 23, shortly after attaining her Bachelor’s degree in Communications with a minor in Psychology from Florida State University.

Since then, she has formally studied with a number of scholars and religious seminaries. Samia is currently an instructor of Quran at the Ribaat Academic Institute by Rabata. Samia has a love for Quranic recitation and is currently working on an Ijaza (Quranic memorization certification) in Hafs recitation with Shaykh Abdallah Deeb through Itqaan Institute.

Samia is also a student of Al-Madina Suhba Seminary under the guidance of Shaykh Mokhtar Maghraoui, where she is studying a variety of courses, including Tazkiya, Hadith, Tafsir Al-Quran, Usul al-Fiqh, Aqida, and Al-Haqiqa al-Muhammadiyya ﷺ, among others. She is also currently a student of the Muddakir Quran Tafseer and Memorization program under the guidance of Ustadha Huda Ghadban.

Samia has studied Quranic Sciences extensively under the guidance and mentorship of Dr. Shaykha Zainab Alwani, which sparked her love for Tadabbur and heart-reflection of the Quran. Samia has also taken classes with Dr. Shaykha Tamara Gray through Rabata and is a graduate of the Fawakih Quranic-Arabic summer program.

Much of Samia's inspiration comes from her grandfathers, Shaykh Ibrahim Zaid Al-Kilani and Shaykh Mohammad Al-Mubarak, who were scholars of their time, dedicating their life to teaching Allah's words and reviving the sunnah of RasoolAllah ﷺ, with each of them having a direct lineage to our Beloved Prophet and Messenger Muhammad ﷺ. May Allah have mercy on them both and make Quranic Ocean a sadaqa jaariya (ongoing charity) for them 🤲🏼.

Samia is a single mom to two girls, one of which was born with a very rare syndrome called CHILD and has special medical needs, alhamdulillah. She is a home barista and loves pouring latte art! She hopes to help people dive deep into the Quranic ocean so they can find comfort and reassurance through Allah’s words amidst the varying circumstances of life. She has a unique ability of helping people tap into their emotions through the words of Allah ﷻ.
