Tajweed Class University at Buffalo -MSA- Teacher: Shaykh Ahmad Al-Quqa Zahir Lewis
What is Tajweed? • Tajweed means to recite every letter correctly, i.e. from its proper origin of pronunciation coupled with its stipulated attributes. • Example Haa and Haa • Do you use your mouth or throat for these letters?
Why Attend This Class? • To recite the Book of Allah Most High with the proper articulation and pronunciation. • To recite the Book of Allah Most High as it was revealed. • To recite Quran like our Prophet .
Waste of time?!? • “Brother, what is the point of memorizing and reading Quran if you don’t even understand the meaning?”….. Reply: Are you serious?! • Each letter is a Nur. • Hadiths on virtues of Quran. • 1st step
The Tajweed Class of the Sahabah • Our Beloved Prophet was the teacher of the Sahabah. • No “Tajweed” classes back then. • Tajweed in modern times.
Before Alif, Baa, Taa • Before one seeks out to learn a single letter from The Quran, one must first establish his/her proper intention for doing so. • Check ourselves: what is our intention for learning Quran. Because Allah gifted us with a nice voice, to lead prayers, etc.
The Next Step • After our intention is pure, we must go to the next step. • Aadaab al Quran: Proper Etiquettes we must have for The Book of Allah Most High. • In order for us to attain the maximum benefit from Allah’s Book, we will have to have true respect for It internally as well as externally
Some Aadaab • Wudhu. • Sitting at a clean place/Clean clothes. • Refraining from eating, drinking, talking, etc while reading. • Refraining from holding the Mushaf with the left hand. • Putting the Mushaf on a raised place. • Never putting It on the floor, even Masjid al Haraam. • Avoid slouching while reading.
Finally…. • Please bare with me. There is no ending point in Quran. We can always increase our knowledge in this field and keep on learning new things each time! • With this in mind, lets review our letters and make sure we’re pronouncing them correctly. This is the foundational step in learning Quran. • Our duty: Continuous studies.
