Tajwid

Rules and refinements of Quranic recitation.

A specialised science covering the articulation points of the letters (makhārij al-ḥurūf), the qualities of the letters (ṣifāt), and the disciplined art of reciting the Qur'an as it was revealed.

Notes here cover both theoretical material — terminology, classification, the rulings on each rule — and the practical: the kinds of mistakes a reader is most likely to make, and how to correct them under a teacher's supervision.
