The Holy Quran recitation
Reading the Holy Quran has major benefits and holds a prominent place in the life of a Muslim. Several verses in the Quran encourage believers to engage in Quran recitation lessons, emphasizing the rewards for those who recite and reflect upon its meanings.
The ahaadeeth reported from the Prophet (peace and prayers of Allah be upon him) through the Sunnah also reinforce this importance. For example, it is narrated that `Uthman reported the Prophet (peace and prayers of Allah be upon him) said, “The best among you (Muslims) are those who learn the Qur’an and teach it.” This highlights the significance of Quran recitation lessons, not only for personal spiritual growth but also for passing knowledge to others.
There are several linguistic rules governing the reading and recitation of the Qur’an, however, several possibilities of reading (Tilawat) exist that depend on the calligraphy and punctuation of the sacred book. This is why we find recitations that differ from one country to another.
On Assabile, we tried to bring to you several reciters reading the Quran in different ways for the delight of visitors. Do not hesitate to listen to your favorite reciter on our website, for the pleasure of listening or to learn the Quran by a specific recitation.
