Career
Career
A native of Mecca, Harbi memorized the entirety of the Qur'an by the age of eleven. Harbi earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Exegesis of the Qur'an, known to Muslims as Tafsir, from Islamic University of Madinah in 1989. Nine years later, he completed a Master of Arts degree in the Muslim prophetic tradition, known as the Sunnah, at Umm al-Qura University, where he would eventually complete his Doctorate of Philosophy in Qur'anic exegesis in 2001. He was promoted to the rank of associate professor at Umm al-Qura in 2006, and currently teaches exegesis. He is also a member of the university's academic board. Harbi also has an Ijazah authorization in all ten Qira'at, or variant methods of reciting the Qur'an, with a complete chain of narration going back to the original reciters of the Qur'an. The majority of his published works, however, have been within the field of the Arabic language, especially in regard to Arabic rhetoric.
Awards
On September 21, 2022, he received the King Salman Global Academy for Arabic Language Award in the category of Promoting Linguistic Awareness.
