Learn Tajweed Online, One-on-One

Correct your Qur'an recitation letter by letter with a teacher trained in the classical rules of Tajweed.

What Tajweed classes actually cover

Tajweed is the science of pronouncing each Qur'anic letter correctly — where it's said, how long it's held, how it blends with the next one.

١

Makharij al-Huruf

Where each letter is articulated in the mouth and throat — the foundation everything else builds on.

٢

Rules of Noon and Meem

How these letters change sound depending on what follows them.

٣

Madd (elongation)

Knowing exactly how long to hold a vowel sound, and why it matters.

٤

Live correction

Your teacher listens and corrects in real time, not after you've finished the page.

عَلَامَات الوَقْف مَخَارِج الحُرُوف

For readers who already know the letters

Adults who can read Qur'an but were never corrected properly as children.

Students preparing to take an Ijazah themselves.

Anyone who wants to recite with the confidence of getting it right.

Six symbols every reader should recognize

The Qur'an marks exactly where to pause and where to continue — knowing these symbols is part of reading correctly, not just reciting from memory.

م

Compulsory stop

The reader must stop here — continuing would change the intended meaning.

لا

Prohibited stop

Stopping here breaks the meaning of the sentence — read straight through.

ج

Permissible either way

Stopping or continuing are both correct — reader's choice.

قلى

Better to stop

Continuing is allowed, but stopping here is the stronger choice.

صلى

Better to continue

Stopping is allowed, but continuing preserves the meaning better.

∴ ∴

Linked stop

If you stop at one of these two matching marks, don't stop at the other.

This is how precise our Tajweed teaching gets

Every letter has an exact point of articulation. Here's a small piece of what a Tajweed class actually covers — where letters made by the tongue come from.

The furthest part of the tongue

ق

Qaaf

Emitted from the furthest part of the tongue against the soft palate.

أَقْرَبُ
ك

Kaaf

Emitted just in front of Qaaf, where the tongue meets the hard and soft palate together.

أَكْبَرُ

The middle of the tongue

ج

Jeem

Emitted from the middle of the tongue against the middle of the upper palate.

أَجْرُهُمْ
ش

Sheen

Same middle-tongue region as Jeem, with a distinct airy sound.

أَشْهُرٍ
ي

Yaa

The soft, non-lengthening Yaa — same articulation point as Jeem and Sheen.
