The main objective of JomAlQuran’s Tajwid classes is to teach students the correct pronunciation and recitation of the Quran in accordance with established Tajwid rules. Learners focus on mastering the articulation points (makharij al-huruf) and the characteristics (sifat al-huruf) of Arabic letters. Students also apply rules such as idgham (merging letters), qalqalah (echoing sounds), and ghunnah (nasalization) to ensure their recitation is accurate and respectful.
Another key goal is to develop fluency and consistency in reading while observing tartil (measured recitation). Tutors at JomAlQuran provide live corrections and repeated practice, especially for non-native Arabic speakers. For example, students often begin by refining Surah Al-Fatihah with proper elongation (madd) and stopping rules (waqf), building a strong foundation for further progress.
Objectives of a Formal Tajwid Class
How Does a Tajwid Class Improve Quranic Recitation?
Tajwid classes at JomAlQuran help students systematically identify and correct common mistakes that can affect recitation quality. Instructors carefully address errors such as confusing heavy (tafkheem) and light (tarqeeq) sounds, which can change the meaning of words. With one-to-one or small group lessons, students benefit from immediate feedback and guided practice, ensuring gradual but steady improvement.
At advanced levels, students apply Tajwid rules in longer passages and strengthen their rhythm, tone, and fluency. Tutors may also introduce elements of tarannum (melodic recitation) to help learners beautify their recitation while maintaining proper rule application.
Is Memorisation Support in Tajwid Classes?
Memorization supports Tajwid learning by reinforcing correct pronunciation and rhythm through repetition. At JomAlQuran, learners may memorize short surahs from Juz’ Amma or selected verses while applying Tajwid rules, allowing the knowledge to become second nature.
For those pursuing long-term Quran learning, memorization is integrated gradually into lessons. This approach not only strengthens retention but also ensures that Tajwid principles are consistently applied in both reading and memorization.
How Do Tajwid Classes Ensure Rule Proficiency?
JomAlQuran ensures proficiency by combining structured lessons with ongoing assessment and feedback. Tutors regularly review recitation, identify recurring mistakes, and guide students until mastery is achieved. This helps learners build confidence in their ability to apply Tajwid rules correctly.
Although JomAlQuran does not issue formal certificates or ijazah, students leave with the assurance that their recitation meets proper Tajwid standards. For those wishing to pursue certification later with recognized scholars, JomAlQuran provides the necessary foundation.
Why Is Understanding Quranic Meaning Emphasized in Tajwid Classes?
JomAlQuran emphasizes that Tajwid is not just about mechanical rules but about reciting with reflection and understanding. Tutors explain how correct application of rules enhances the meaning of the verses. For instance, elongation (madd) in certain words emphasizes Allah’s attributes and deepens the spiritual experience of recitation.
By linking Tajwid with meaning, students not only improve their technical accuracy but also strengthen their personal connection to the Quran. This approach ensures that recitation is both correct and heartfelt.
How Do Tajwid Classes Accommodate to Different Skill Levels?
Classes are structured to accommodate learners at various stages, from beginners learning Arabic letters to advanced students refining complex Tajwid rules. Beginners focus on simple recitation and basic rules, while intermediate learners move to applying Tajwid in full surahs. Advanced learners may train in preparation for future ijazah or sanad certification with recognized scholars.
Tutors adjust pacing according to each student’s level and learning style. Younger children may learn through repetition and visuals, while adults receive more analytical explanations of the rules.
What Are the Long-Term Benefits of Tajwid Classes?
The long-term benefits of learning Tajwid with JomAlQuran include lifelong accuracy in recitation and deeper spiritual connection with the Quran. Students become more confident in daily prayers, Quran study circles, and personal worship.
For those who wish to teach or pursue advanced studies later, Tajwid classes also provide a strong foundation before seeking certification with universities, masjid-based scholars, or specialized institutions. Above all, proper Tajwid helps preserve the authenticity and beauty of the Quran as it was revealed.
