Qur’an recitation is the reading of the Qur’an, according to tajweed Quran & tarteel, as led by the Prophet Muhammad S.A.W (PBUH).
When asked about the significance of tarteel, Imam Ali (PBUH) answered: It suggests that the Qur’an should be recited with Quran tajweed and with due attention tuhfat al atfal to the rules of Waqf (pausing or stopping at the end of the verse).’
Tarteel is the Arabic word for hymnody. The name is commonly translated about the Qur'an as recitation, "in just order" and "with no hurry." This word is used in chapter 73 named verse 4 of the Qur'an: "and read the Qur'an in slow, measured rhythmic tones."
Arabic language, we also have to read the usual pronunciation of letters and words which we term ‘tajweed.’
What is the meaning of tajweed: Tajweed only means to read each letter correctly, i.e., from its origin of pronunciation together with the property of its accompanying notes.
Just as in any other language, we learn to say the letters and words, e.g., in English, we read ‘ph’ stands for ‘f’ and not ‘p’ as in ‘phone/fone’ and not ‘pne’..similarly in the.
Thus as a quoted example, the word ‘qalb’ (with Q) means ‘heart,’ if read ‘Kalb’ (with K) will now mean dog.
Tajweed also implies ‘to improve’ and ‘to make better.’ The reading and articulation of every letter of the Qur’an from where the sound is thought to come with its proper characteristics such as lengthening (isti’laa), shortening (istifāl), thinning (tarqeeq), thickening (tafkheem) and other phonetic laws such as absorbing/merging (idghaam), pronouncing clearly (idh-haar), changing (iqlab) and covering (ikhfa), muqaddimah al jazariyyah.
Since we could say: Tajweed of the Qur’an is the knowledge and quality of the right rules of recitation so that the reading of the Qur’an is as close as possible to the recitation of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).
Although the Arabic language is expressed from right to left, Arabic numerals are read from left to right.
