The salka is a tilawa during the meeting of the murids in a zawiya or a mosque to continuously recite the entire Quran.[3]
Saliks and tolbas recite the salka periodically to demonstrate their memorization in the zawiyas and madrasas.[4][5]
Muslims used also to perform the salka to psalmody the whole Quran either for death, childbirth, marriage contract, or moving to a new residence.[6][7]
While the Hizb Rateb consists of reciting a juz' of the Quran before or after one of the obligatory Islamic salawate (prayer), the salka consists of meeting in a place where believers continuously recite all of the sixty hizbs of the Quran from Al-Fatiha to An-Nas.[8][9]
