Ruling on Reciting the Qur'an Without Tajwid and Tartil

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Our sister asks and says: Is a person rewarded for ordinary recitation without tajwid and without tartil of the Qur'an, due to not mastering tartil and tajwid, or not?

Answer:
Yes, he is rewarded for it if Allah rectifies his intention and he intends the Face of Allah; he is rewarded for it. And if he learns tajwid so that his recitation is correct and he recites the Qur'an with tartil, that is better. And if that is not facilitated, then tajwid is not obligatory; rather, it is among the beautifiers of the recitation.
So the result is that if he recites the Qur'an in the Arabic language and establishes the letters, then praise be to Allah. And the Sunnah for him is not to hasten until he understands, and until he reflects and comprehends. For this reason, He, the Exalted, said:
and recite the Qur'an with measured recitation.وَرَتِّلِ الْقُرْآنَ تَرْتِيلًا
[Al-Muzzammil: 4] And He, the Exalted, said:
[This is] a blessed Book which We have revealed to you, [O Muhammad], that they might reflect upon its verses and that those of understanding would be reminded.كِتَابٌ أَنزَلْنَاهُ إِلَيْكَ مُبَارَكٌ لِيَدَّبَّرُوا آيَاتِهِ وَلِيَتَذَكَّرَ أُوْلُوا الأَلْبَابِ
[Sad: 29] So the Sunnah for the reciter is to reflect, and to comprehend, and not to hasten until he benefits from the speech of Allah.
That is to say: The intended purpose of the recitation is understanding, knowledge, and action, and not merely the recitation itself. And although the recitation contains good, and in it is virtue and reward, but the intended purpose is what is beyond that of reflection and action. Yes.

The presenter : May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good.
