Overview
About this Course
This course is a continuation of Tajweed studies, transitioning students from theoretical knowledge to practical mastery through structured Recitation (hifz) of the Qur’an. Beginning from the end of the Mushaf, students will develop a disciplined approach to memorizing one page per week while maintaining high standards of tajweed and fluency. The course emphasizes consistency, retention, and the proper application of tajweed rules in recitation. Students will engage with the Qur’an daily, building a strong connection through repetition, reflection, and correction. The goal is not only to memorize, but to preserve the Qur’an accurately and recite it with confidence, precision, and reverence. By the end of the course, students will have established a sustainable hifz routine and strengthened their relationship with the Qur’an as a central part of their daily life.
