Common Quranic Tajweed Mistakes that should be clarified



It is essential that the Muslims read the Arabic letters and vowels to read the Quran using them, not a transliteration. Transliterations do not take into thought the several letters that sound related to the untrained ear but are very different in pronunciation.

The Quran is the word of Allah, revealed to man as a guide, and we have to be very careful when reading it, as best we can, with proper pronunciation. Learning a transliteration can point to a change in the application of the Holy Quran by mispronouncing its Arabic letters.



The first mistake, made by Arab and non-Arab Muslims like, is in getting inappropriate starts and stops. There are two problems with this mistake. The first issue is that the proper way to stop on a word is by putting a sukoon, or absence of a vowel on the last letter of the word.

It is not allowed to stop using the harakah, or vowel on the last letter of the word. Ilmu tajwid its rises second point of stopping is that of staying at a place that does not contradict the meaning intended by Almighty Allah, the Exalted.

The identical mistake can occur when starting up after stopping and holding breath. We cannot just start on the next word at random; that is, the object needs to be considered, and the start should be on a word that describes the absolute and perfect meaning, even if the reader needs to go back two or three words.

There are two most basic tajweed Qur'an mistakes made by non-Arabs: the timings of the vowels (madd letters in Arabic) and in the connection points of the letters.

The first type concerning the timing of the vowels (i.e., lengthening a vowel longer than one vowel count), and natural lengthening (making them smaller than they should be). Each vowel over a letter takes one count. So a kasrah takes the same timing as a fath, as does a dhammah, whenever the madd tajweed letters alif does not follow these letters; or a ya' with no vowel preceded by a kasrah, or wow with no consonant preceded by a dhammah).

Whereas Madd letters have two vowel counts if a hamzah or a sukoon does not follow them. All vowels, as said above, have equal timing in length. This is not valid for letters without vowels or saakin letters. The schedules of saakin letters vary depending on their features. The difference is in not a considerable length of time, though.
