Tajweed is the science of reciting the Qur’an correctly and beautifully, as it was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. The word Tajwīd comes from the Arabic root meaning “to improve” or “to make better,” and in the context of the Qur’an, it refers to giving each letter its proper rights in pronunciation, articulation, and characteristics.
Learning Tajweed helps preserve the exact words of Allah, protecting their sound, rhythm, and meaning from distortion. At Al-Bayaan Academy, Tajweed is taught as a careful and structured discipline, focusing on accuracy, understanding, and consistent practice.
Why Learn Tajweed?
Correct Qur’anic recitation is not optional; it is an essential part of worship.
Learning Tajweed helps students:
