Beginner Tajweed

Eight weeks to build the essential rules of Tajweed — so you can recite with correct pronunciation and quiet confidence.

Is this for you?

  • You can read Arabic letters, but slowly or unsure of the rules.
  • You want to correct your pronunciation, letter by letter.
  • You learned as a child and want to relearn properly.
  • You feel shy reciting aloud. That’s okay — it’s where many learners begin.

What you’ll learn

  1. 1

    A good beginning

    Isti‘adhah and Basmalah, how a Tajweed lesson works, and hearing each letter clearly.

  2. 2

    Makharij — where each letter is born

    The articulation points of the throat, tongue, lips and nasal passage.

  3. 3

    Sifat — the character of letters

    Heavy and light letters (tafkhim & tarqiq) and the qualities that keep similar letters distinct.

  4. 4

    Noon Sakinah & Tanween

    Izhar, Idgham, Iqlab and Ikhfa — practised in short surahs.

  5. 5

    Meem Sakinah & Ghunnah

    The three rules of Meem Sakinah and the nasal sound, with guided practice.

  6. 6

    Madd — the art of prolongation

    Natural and secondary Madd, and how long to hold each.

  7. 7

    Qalqalah, Laam & Raa

    The echoing letters, and when Laam and Raa are heavy or light.

  8. 8

    Stopping, starting & your recitation

    Waqf and ibtida’, a full review, and a gentle recitation to your teacher to mark the milestone.

How lessons feel

Live with your teacher

Listen, repeat and be gently corrected in live online lessons.

Short daily practice

A little every day. Small and steady beats long and rare.

Visible progress

Each step you master is marked, so you can see how far you’ve come.

Questions learners ask

I can’t read Arabic at all yet. Can I still join?

Yes — tell us in the enrollment form. Your teacher will begin with the letters and their sounds, and move into Tajweed when you’re ready.

What happens after the eight weeks?

You can continue practising with your teacher, begin memorization, or move toward Advanced Recitation when you feel ready.

Can I choose a female or male teacher?

Yes — let us know your preference in the enrollment form and we’ll do our best to match you.

What do I need for lessons?

A phone, tablet or computer with a camera and microphone, a stable internet connection, and a quiet place to recite.
