What is Tajweed & Importance of Tajweed

In the context of reading the Quran, Tajweed is a set of rules for the correct use of Qira'at. In Arabic, the term tajwid comes from the triliteral root j-w-d ('to increase'). Tajweed is a mandatory religious obligation when reading the Quran.

The Arabic word Tajweed linguistically means "skill" or "doing something right." It comes from the same root as Jayyid, which means "good." When applied to the Qur'an, it means giving each letter of the Qur'an the correct rates and characteristics when reading the Qur'an and observing the rules that apply to those letters in different situations. We provide letters of your rights, pointing out the essential features of each letter. We make your contribution to observing the characteristics of each letter at a given time and not being present at another time.

The Quran was revealed with the application of Tajweed's rules. In other words, when the angel Gabriel (Gabriel), whom Allah mentions, recites the words of Allah to the Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu 'Alayhi wa Sallam (may Allah exalt his mention), he recited them in some way. He showed the prophet Sallallahu' Alayhi wa Sallam (may Allah be pleased with him) that Allah has exalted mentioned) how he was allowed to read the Qur'an. Therefore, we must obey these rules to read them as they are expressed.

At the time of the Prophet, Sallallahu 'Alayhi wa Sallam (may Allah exalt his mention) was not necessary for people to study tajweed because they were speaking at what is now known as tajwid. Therefore it was natural for them. When the Arabs began to mingle with the non-Arabs and Islam spread, errors started to appear in the Quranic recitation, so the scholars had to record the rules. Now, since the daily Arabic Arabic has changed so much compared to the classical Arabic with which the Qur'an was revealed, even the Arabs have to study tajweed.

Importance of Tajweed –

The Noble Quran is the literal words of Allah that He has revealed as a definite source of law for humanity to lead an organized life. It contains rules and recommendations on all aspects of life and references to other lives. Because it is so essential, the Quran must be read, written, and read correctly and clearly so as not to cause ambiguity or misunderstanding. Allah SWT spoke with His Messenger, Muhammad Sallallahu 'Alayhi wa Sallam (may Allah exalt his mention) in the Qur'an said (meaning): ".And read the Koran with measured readings." [Al-Quran 73: 4]

Listening to the Quran correctly recited is enough to soften even the most difficult hearts. Muslims and non-Muslims consider it a very moving experience, even if they do not understand what is said. Every Muslim should read the Quran in prayer. Still, many of us do not realize that reading the Quran correctly, observing the rules of reading, is not advanced science only for expert readers, but an obligation for all of us and for all always. We read the Quran.

The application of Tajweed's rules is an obligation to stay away from essential errors in the recitation of the Quran. There are two types of mistakes: clear and hidden faults. Mistakes are usually obvious mistakes and change the meaning of words, although it is not easy to identify unknown errors. Most students agree that the Tajwid rules are one duty (Fred's eye) to make apparent mistakes.
