The Ruling on Tajwid in Reciting the Qur'an

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: What is the correct position regarding tajwid, which is prevalent among us these days? Is it considered a bid'ah (religious innovation) because so much has been said about it?

Answer:
The tajwid intended here, which means regulating the verses by reciting them according to grammar and inflection, is obligatory. It is obligatory to regulate the Qur'an and recite it in the correct manner regarding what is established in the Arabic language, such as raising the raised, lowering the lowered, and accusative the accusative. If this is left, it is called lahn (grammatical error), and this is not permissible. As for tajwid, it is an act of beautification. It is a beautifying act that is performed, but one should not exaggerate in it; rather, one should take a middle path. It is a beautifying act. If it is present, praise be to Allah, and it is a complement. If it is not present, it is not necessary and it is not required. Yes.
