What is Tajweed ?

Tajwd is an Arabic word, which means enunciation. It deals


with the rules associated with the pronunciation of
the Qur'an. It stems from the root -w-d, which means to
make well, make better, or improve. It means understanding
and giving each letter, its rights and dues of characteristics
and following those rules which prevail in different
circumstances, while reciting Quran.

Benefits of Learning Tajweed


To pronounce the letters correctly -such as people in whose language
some of the Arabic letters, they have to try to learn the correct
pronunciation but if they are unable to master it then they are excused,
but their example should not be followed and they should be called
upon to strive hardest to learn and correct their pronunciation. And
none of them should lead prayer, unless he is leading other like him
who cannot pronounce well either.

Why is Tajweed important?


The recitation of Holy Quran is a serious task; hence one must make sure that
he is reciting it correctly.
Despite the fact that we recite Quran in our daily prayers, most of us do not
know whether we are reciting it correctly according to its rules. It is a common
confusion among people that how can they speak or understand Arabic
language to recite the Quran when it is not even our mother tongue. This is a
major hindrance in learning Tajweed.
For all these reasons, we are here to provide you with the necessary skills
which will help you understand and recite Quran, following the correct
pronunciation of each letter with the rules and regulations which relate to it,
without any exaggeration or deficiency.

Rules of Tajweed Quran


When Islam was being spread (and it was done so at a very quick pace and
also into non-Arab speaking countries) not everyone's tongue was accustomed
to the Arabic letters and sounds. Thus, when reciting the Qur'an, much error
and distortion occurred and the Muslim scholars feared (the perpetration of)
that error and distortion.
It was at this point that some of them recorded the rules and foundations that
regulate the correct pronunciation of Qur'an, and they named this the Science
of Tajweed.
These letters are pronounced from three levels of throat
1.Bottom of the Throat
2. Middle of the Throat
3. Top of the Throat
