About This Course

Tajweed is the science of reciting the Quran with proper pronunciation, rhythm, and articulation. The word Tajweed means "to do well" or "to make better" — and it is an obligation for every Muslim to recite the Quran with correct Tajweed.

In this course, our Shia Quran teachers — who hold Ijazah (chain of authority) in Tajweed — guide students through all essential Tajweed rules using the Shia recitation style, ensuring every letter is pronounced from its correct Makhraj (point of articulation).

Classes are one-on-one, ensuring personalised feedback and rapid improvement for students of all levels.
