I read the Qur'an to one of the sheikhs and he is strict with me regarding tajwid (the rules of Qur'anic recitation), so what should I do?

Question:
May Allah reward you. Your Eminence, father, the questioner says: I read the Qur'an to one of the sheikhs, but he is strict with me regarding the characteristics of the letters, such as isti'la (elevation) and istifal (lowering). Is this in accordance with the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him): "The skilled one with the Qur'an is with the noble, righteous angels"?

Answer:
Exaggeration and excess are not permissible in tajwid. One should be moderate. One should not neglect tajwid or be careless with it, nor should one exaggerate, overdo, or be extreme in it. Rather, one should take the middle path. Yes. If this teacher does not abandon this habit, look for another teacher who is easier and better than him. Yes. Being extreme in this is not permissible. It causes stagnation. It is not permissible. Yes.
