Necessity of Learning Tajweed:
Since the Qur'an emphatically commands us to recite the Qur'an
with Tarteel, we have to recite it with Tajweed. Tajweed is not like all other
subjects which we are able to separate from the Qur'an but instead Tajweed and
Qur'an work hand in hand.
According to some scholars, the verse, 'Verily my people have renounced the
Qur'an' (25:30) has two interpretations. Firstly, it could mean that they had
renounced the Qur'an by not believing in it and practicing upon it. And
secondly, it could mean that they used to recite the Qur'an in such a
disgusting manner that it sounded like senseless and meaningless jabbering.'
Reading the Qur'an without Tajweed could also be included in the second
interpretation.
The Prophet (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) has said, 'The Qur'an will either
testify in your favor or against you.' Hence, if we fail to observe the
requirements of the noble Qur'an during our recitation, the Qur'an will
testify against us. If we are unacquainted with these prerequisites, we are
compelled to acquire the laws of Tajweed.
Due to the vastness of the Arabic language, any small mistake in pronunciation
of a letter or word may change the meaning of that word. For example, the word
'Qalb' (with q) means heart, if read 'Kalb' (with k), it will mean a dog'.
So just as how in any other language we learn pronunciation of letters and
words, for example, in English we learn that 'ph' stands for 'f' (as in phone)
and not pone. Similarly, in the Arabic language, we also have to learn
pronunciation of letters and words, which we term as 'Tajweed'.
