Tajwīd (tr. 'making something good or better') is the discipline of proper Qur'anic recitation. It involves pronouncing each letter from its proper point of articulation and giving it its due attributes consistently. It is acquired by listening to those who have mastered it, emulating them, and being tested. Learning the theoretical rules of tajwīd is a communal obligation (Ar. farḍ kifāyah) while practicing it is an individual obligation (Ar. farḍ ʿayn).This book is a complete, annotated translation of Sheikh Sulaymān al-Jamzūrī's Tuḥfat al-Aṭfāl, a classical didactic poem on tajwīd, including the section on 'points of articulation' (Ar. maḵārij al-ḥurūf) from Imam Ibn al-Jazarī's intermediate-level poem on tajwīd.ContentsTuhfatul AtfalThe Four Cases of the Vowelless Nun and TanwinCase 1 of the Vowelless Nun and Tanwin Enunciation Case 2 of the Vowelless Nun and Tanwin Assimilation Case 3 of the Vowelless Nun and Tanwin: Transformation Case 4 of the Vowelless Nun and Tanwin: Weak Pronunciation The Doubled Mim and Nun The Three Cases of the Vowelless MimCase 1 of the Vowelless Mim: Weak Pronunciation Case 2 of the Vowelless Mim: Assimilation Case 3 of the Vowelless Mim: Enunciation A Warning Regarding the Unvowelled Mim before Waw and FaThe Two Cases of the
