When the Arabs started mixing with the non-Arabs as Islam spread, mistakes in Qur’an recitation started appearing, so the scholars had to record the rules. In other words, when the angel Jibrael (AS) recited the words of Allah to Prophet Muhammad (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) he recited them in a certain way and showed Prophet Muhammad (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) History of TajweedĪt the time of the Prophet (SAW) there was no need for people to study Tajweed because they talked with what is now known as Tajweed so it was natural for them. The Qur’an was revealed with Tajweed rules applied to it. When we recite Qur’an and observe the rules that apply to each letter in different situations, we are giving the letter its right and by observing essential characteristics of each letter, we give its due. When applied to the Qur’an, it means giving every letter of the Qur’an its rights and dues. The word Tajweed linguistically means ‘proficiency’ or ‘doing something well’. Tajweed means “Improving,” or “to make something better.” The Word Tajweed is from the root word “Jawdah” which means “Quality”. Tajweed of the Holy Qur’an is the knowledge and application of the rules of recitation so the reading of the Qur’an is as the Prophet Mohammed peace and blesings be upon him, recited. The word “tajweed” means to improve, make better. This is a very humble effort to address this topic at a very basic level. This booklet is an attempt to look at the subject of Tajweed. Love for Quranis always looking at ways of improving and moving forward. We pray that you are in the best of health and Imaan. As-salaamu-a-laykum I praise Allah (SWT) the Most High and send blessings upon the best of creation.
