Qira'ats and recitations of the Quran
The ten recitations or ten readings are ten Qira'ats and recitations of the Quran approved by scholars in their research to determine the frequent recitations.
History.
The Quran was revealed in seven "ahruf" or letters, and the letters are not only in writing, but also in pronunciation, meaning, vowel, endowment signs, and brevity, and due to the different accents and dialects of the Arabs to whom the Quran was revealed.
Uthman ibn Affan compiled the "Quran" in one formation, and there are seven fixed recitations and three complementary readings of the seven, so the ten readings are completed, and all these readings and their pronouncements were reported by Muhammad, and were transmitted by the Sahaba, the Tabi'un, and so on.

In the countries of the Maghreb, they read by reciting Imam Nafi, who is the imam of the people of Medina, whether it is the narration of Warsh or the narration of Qalun.
In Sudan and in Hadhramaut, they read the narration that Al-Duri narrated on the authority of Abu Amr.
