Tajwid Course

There is no doubt that learning Tajweed by yourself without a teacher is a little bit hard, so you need a highly skillful and well-qualified tutor to guide you during your journey. This teacher will help you to learn Tajweed theoretically and practically which means he will correct you when you make a mistake. This helps the student to recite the Quran property as it was revealed to Prophet Muhammed (PBUH).

This course is the best one for kids and adults who finish the Noorani Qaida course and can read Arabic. This course will improve their reading and help them to attain Itqan Al-Quran (perfection in reciting the Quran) with continuous Sanad (chain of narrators) connected to Prophet Muhammed (PBUH).

The tajweed course is divided into three levels (beginner, intermediate, and advanced) that help in working out the learning process. These three levels make the students master Tajweed rules either theoretically or practically by the guidance of their component and qualified teacher.

Students can also choose which rules of Tajweed according to the Qiraa. As there are 10 Qiraat of the Quran so this course is shaped to cover the rules of any Qiraa the students need. Each Qiraa has a set of Tajweed rules.

This course qualifies students who look forward to taking the Ijazah.

Tajweed History

Expanding the Islamic state was the beginning and the reason for putting the science of Tajweed rules. The Islamic state expanded in the third century of Hijra, where error and melody increased in the Quran due to  the entry of many non-Arabs to Islam. 

So the Islamic scholars of the Quran wanted to save the proper recitation of the Quran as it was revealed to the Prophet Muhammed (PBUH) which push them to begin to write the rules and rules of intonation.  It is said that the first person to collect the science of tajwīd in his book Kitāb al-Qirā’āt was Imām Abu ʻUbaid al-Qāsim bin Salām (774 – 838 CE) in the third century of Hijra.

There are many Quran scholars who are interested in the tajweed in Qiraat rules like

• Abu Ubaid al-Qasim ibn Sallam He was the first to develop a recorded science for tajwid, giving the rules of tajwid names and putting it into writing in his book called al-Qirā’āt.
• Abu Bakr Ahmad ibn Musa wrote a book called Kitab al-Sab’ fil-qirā’āt “The Seven of the Recitations.” He is the first to limit the number of recitations to the seven known.
• Abu Ishaq al-Shatibi  wrote a poem outlining the two most famous ways passed down from each of the seven-strong imams, known as ash-Shatibiyyah.
•  Ibn Al-Jazari  wrote two large poems about Qiraat and tajwid.

These scholars just gave a rule for reciting Quran which means they didn’t design the rules as these rules were introduced and practiced by Prophet Muhammed. 

Muslims who speak Modern Arabic used to use many alien words from different languages as a result of globalization that is why Arabs also use to learn the Tajweed rules because modern Arabic has replaced classical Arabic.

Why should learn Tajweed?

Quran is Allah Almighty’s speech so it deserved all respect. Quran has to recite with tajweed as it was revealed to Prophet Muhammed (PBUH). It is obligatory for all Muslims to recite the Quran with Tajweed rules. 

Every single Muslim should realize that observing the rules of recitation is not an advanced science for expert reciters alone, rather it is an obligation upon each and every one of us whenever we recite the Quran, especially in Salah to be accepted and complete.
