Meaning of Qirat:

Qiraat in Islam refers to the various methods of reciting the Holy Quran. Each Qirah has its certain rules of recitation and variations in words and letters. Qirat also refers to the branch of Islamic studies that deals with these recitation manners. Thus, Qirat are the verbalization of the Quran, and the Quran is preserved in Qirat.

Names of 7 Qirat of Quran:

The following seven types of Qirat fall below the Mutawatir category. These Qirat were selected by the celebrated Quranic scholar in the field of Qirat named Abu Bakr ibn Mujahid.

1.Qirat Ibn Katheer Al-Makki (Makkah)

2.Qirat Naafi’ Al-Madani (Madinah)

3.Qirat Ibn Aamir ash-Shami (Syria)

7.Qirat Al-Kisaa’i (Kufa)

In total, there are ten Qirat, but only seven of them are usually considered. The reason is at the start of the Muslim conquest, the seven well-known scholars and their students stayed in a specific region, while the other three moved to different areas across the world until a scholar named Ibn el Jazerry traveled across the world and found other three recitation manners. However, the other three types of Qirat are not included most of the time.
