The Ruling on Lahn (Mistakes) in Reciting the Qur'an
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Regarding the completion of the recitation of the Qur'an or during recitation, is it necessary to apply the rules of tajwid? Is tajwid obligatory?
Answer:
Tajwid is of two types. The first is tajwid in the sense of preserving the Qur'an from lahn (mistakes), such that one does not raise a word that should be in the accusative case, nor put a word in the accusative that should be in the nominative, nor err in the grammar. This is obligatory. The second type is lahn al-ma'na (semantic lahn), which is not adhering to the rules of tajwid. This is considered semantic lahn. If one achieves mastery of the recitation with tajwid, that is better. If not, there is no harm, and it is sufficient to preserve it from the perspective of grammar. However, if one makes a mistake that changes the meaning, that is forbidden and not permissible. If this occurs in Surat al-Fatihah, it invalidates the prayer, unless the person is unable to do anything but this, in which case his prayer is permissible, but he must learn. Yes.
