Idea's Born ... The need behind invention

In 7/4/1991 morning, our sheikh teacher clapped to draw my colleague's attention, (because he did not apply a designated Tajweed rule while reading the Holy Qura'n).

Then the idea clicked: Why not the letter, that contains a Tajweed rule, expresses it self by a special color instead of waiting the sound of the teacher's hand, indicating to the site of that Tajweeed rule ; moreover, this color could be darker or lighter to identify the duration of the Tajweed rule.

All that, means that the Tajweed could be written on Outhmani style, as it is the case with vowelization and dotting on letters that were only audible.

Thus, the need behind invention.

Engineer Subhi Taha

ALLAH (SWA) ordered us in his holy book to recite the Quran with tajweed …"recite the Quran modulatingly." the system of tajweed serves as a guide to improve the style of Quranic recitation . It was in this way that the holy Quran was revealed to prophet Mohammed (PBUH) and also the manner in which he recited it. Therefore, the reader of the holy Quran longs to achieve the promise of Prophet Mohammed (PBUH):"whoever recites the Quran correctly and proficiently will be with the bountiful dutiful writers (the angels of the preserved tablet - Al lauh Al Mahfuz).

Based on a practical understanding of phonology, we have colour-coded the place of some letters to facilitate the correct recitation of the holy Quran. This had enabled us to classify these letters within 3 possible categories to enhance the reader's knowledge and remembrance of tajweed rules.

  1. The letters which requires expanded vocalization. We used red colour to highlight these letters.

  2. The letters which is nasalized. These letters are green in colour.

  3. the dark blue colour indicates the emphatic of the letter (R), the blue colour indicates the unrest letters-echoing sound- (qualquala)

While the letters which are written but are not pronounced. These letters are grey in colour.

The reader will get used to reciting the Quran by using colour just as he got used to stopping at red lights and passing though green lights. By engaging I this sublime act, the reader will find him self applying 24 rules of tajweed with ease and precision while his mind is left free to contemplate and understand the meaning of holy Quran.

 




By examination and verification of the "Tajweed Qur'an"
(wa-rattel-el-Qur'ana tartila) related to "DAR AL-MAARIFAH", it has been ascertained that it is in the Othmani style. The methodology adopted by the publishing house has been accurately applied after examining the passages written at the end of it, wherein the publisher explains everything relevant to the application of the idea of coloring ...)

 

(...The committee of the Noble Qur'an has examined this copy and found it correct in terms of calligraphy and vowelization, and that the idea of time and colour coding is a unique and creative idea, and does not conflict with calligraphy and vowelization. It also helps the reader understand the Tajweed rules and their application by means of the codes set at the bottom of each page. The committee attests: That "DAR AL-MAARIFAH" has accurately applied its idea flawlessly.)

(Quoted from the report of the Revision Committee of Noble Qur'an approved on Sep. 6th 1999)
(...The committee recommends that there will not be more than one copy of the Noble Qur'an that applies the colour-coding of the rules of Tajweed.)
(Report of the committee approved by the Secretary General on Nov. 7th 1999)
