Allah Ta’ala says in the Holy Qur’an:
ورﺗﻠﻨﺎﻩ ﺗﺮﺗﻴﻼ
َ
“And with tarteel We have revealed it i.e. the Qur’an”
Also we have been ordered to recite the Qur’an with
tarteel; Allah Ta’ala says,
ورﺗﻞ اﻟﻘﺮأن ﺗﺮﺗﻴﻼ
“And recite the Qur’an with tarteel”
From the above two verses, it becomes obligatory
on us to recite the Qur’an with tarteel.
What is At-Tarteel?

According to Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased
with him) Tarteel means,
ﺗـَﺠﻮﻳ ُﺪ اﻟﺤُﺮوف و ﻣَﻌﺮﻓﺔ اﻟﻮُﻗﻮف
“Tajweedul-huroof wa ma’rifatul-wuqoof.”
i.e. To recite every letter with Tajweed and to
know where to stop and where not to stop.
Thus, there are two parts to Tarteel:
1. Tajweedul-Huroof
2. Ma’rifatul-Wuqoof
We will first discuss Tajweed.
