Tilawat - Recitation of the Holy Quran

Tilawat refers to the melodious and respectful recitation of the Holy Quran. It is considered one of the most spiritually uplifting practices in Islam. Reciting the Quran with proper Tajweed (rules of pronunciation) not only fulfills a religious obligation but also brings peace, guidance, and countless blessings to the reciter and listeners.

Tilawat is often performed in prayer, during special religious events, or as part of daily devotion. It plays a central role in connecting Muslims with the divine message of Allah (SWT).

Q: Is it necessary to learn Tajweed for Tilawat?
A: While it's not obligatory, learning Tajweed is highly recommended to ensure correct pronunciation and respect for the Quranic text.

Q: Can Tilawat be done without Wudu (ablution)?
A: It is preferable to perform Tilawat with Wudu. However, you may listen to or recite from memory without Wudu, but touching the physical Mushaf (Quran) requires it.
