About this title

Synopsis

Beautiful Qur'anic recitation comes from the precision of the science of linguistics, the artistic range of the human voice, and the awe of knowing the Source of this sacred text. The best way to learn to recite the Qur'an properly is to listen to a good reciter, then to recite and have your recitation checked by a good reciter. But knowing the features of the Uthmani script, as it clarifies the rules of Tajwid, makes precise and beautiful recitation easier. With the wide availability of the Madinah Mus-haf elegantly written in the Uthmani script by the the Damascene calligrapher Uthman Taha, this script is the standard for clarity and precision for the proper reading of the Qur'an. Graded Steps in Qur'an Reading (GSQR) seeks to make the Uthmani script more accessible and easy to use. Its eight carefully graded sequence of Units cover letter recognition and the vowels and signs of reading the Arabic script. From the first 'Quick Start' Unit, those absolutely new to the Arabic script will be amazed by how quickly they can become familiar with the basic features of the Arabic script. Graded Steps in Qur'an Reading shows that the rules of Tajwid are there to make pronunciation easy, naturally free-flowing, and beautiful.
