It is unclear to me what we're supposed to be validating the the "Listen" section.
1. That the words say what is written?
2. That the words are clear and easy to understand?
3. That the speech is fluent and natural and easy to listen to?
I would guess 1 and maybe 2, and not 3, but it's only a guess because I don't see it written down anywhere.
Many of the clips are very stilted, spoken slowly and unnaturally.(Also, sometimes the text doesn't make sense. "On a normal Hajj, it would be around to walk." But I'm guessing this doesn't matter.)

- SamBam 7y agoThat does help. And it should be linked clearly. For those that don't want to read, the only real rule is: All the words are read exactly as written, and no other words are heard. Clarity, stiltedness, background noise, pronunciation (so long as it's acceptable English), accent, etc don't matter.
