Course
Quran Reading with Tajweed
Reading the Quran correctly is not about speed. Tajweed is the set of rules that tells you how each letter should sound and how long to hold it, and it is learned by being listened to.
Who this course is for
- Students who can join letters and are now reading from the Quran
- Children who read fluently but have picked up pronunciation habits that need correcting
- Adults who were taught quickly as children and want to read properly now
- Anyone preparing to begin Hifz, since Tajweed should come first
What you will learn
- Makharij: where in the mouth and throat each letter is formed
- The heavy and light letters, and why the difference matters
- Rules of noon saakin and tanween, including idgham, ikhfa and iqlab
- Rules of meem saakin
- Madd: which vowels are stretched and for how long
- Qalqalah, and the rules for stopping and starting mid-verse
- Applying all of it while actually reading, not just reciting the rules
How the lessons run
Every lesson is one to one, because Tajweed cannot be taught in a group. The teacher listens to you read aloud, stops you at the point of the mistake, demonstrates the correct sound, and has you repeat it until it is right. This is the same method used in traditional halaqah, simply delivered over a video call.
How long it takes
Students who already read fluently often notice their pronunciation improving within a few weeks. Working through the full set of rules and applying them consistently takes longer, and depends on how often you attend and how much you read between lessons.

Questions about this course
Is Tajweed really necessary?
Reading the Quran correctly is taken seriously by scholars, and mispronouncing a letter can change a word’s meaning. Beyond that, most people find their recitation becomes far more beautiful once the rules become natural.
Can I learn Tajweed if I do not speak Arabic?
Yes. Tajweed is about pronunciation and recitation, not about understanding Arabic grammar. Most of our students do not speak Arabic.
Will I get an Ijazah at the end?
[[FILL: whether Ijazah certification is offered, and on what terms]]
