Shaykh Falaah also named Shaykh al-Hudhayfee as one of the Ulemah of Saudi Arabia in an article on his official website www.mandakar.com

  In 1428H, Allamah Ubayd al-Jabiri hafidhahullah recommended the Muslims to listen to Salafi reciters like Shaykh Alee al-Hudhayfee hafidhahullah and avoid listening to reciters like Mishari Rashid al-Afasy who is known for singing nasheeds in addition to other errors.
