The word "tajweed" means to improve, make better.

Al Thuraya Language Center offers courses in Tajweed (Qur’anic recitation) we have the honor of regularly hosting a variety of famous Islamic scholars and lecturers.

Tajweed of the Holy Qur'an is the knowledge and application of the rules of recitation so the reading of the Qur'an is as the Prophet Mohammed’s peace and blessings are upon him, recited.

Our course will explain the principles of tajweed and focus on the problems that most Muslims especially non-Arabs have in reciting the Qur'an properly. Tajweed lessons will be given on different aspects of tajweed.

We are eager to work with all students interested in learning more about Islam both in and out of class. We will work with each student to design a tailored course that encompasses all of his or her goals and interests in Islam. For students wishing to focus on Arabic language studies while at the same time enriching their knowledge of Islamic studies, class assignments can be arranged and refined to meet these goals.

Prophet Muhammad (S) said:

'The best among you are those who learn the Qur'an and teach it to others
