Understanding Al-Quraisy, Tajwid, and Hajj in Islam
Islam is a religion that emphasizes faith, worship, and obedience to Allah Swt. Understanding key Islamic concepts such as proper Quranic recitation (Tajwid) and the rules of Hajj can help deepen one’s religious knowledge and practice.
Surah Al-Quraisy: A Lesson in Gratitude
Surah Al-Quraisy is the 106th chapter of the Quran, highlighting Allah’s blessings upon the Quraisy tribe. This Surah emphasizes the importance of gratitude and devotion to Allah Swt for providing sustenance and security.
Tajwid: Pronunciation Rules in the Quran
Proper Quranic recitation is essential to maintaining the accuracy and beauty of the Quran. One important rule in Tajwid involves the pronunciation of Nun Sukun (نْ) or Tanwin (ــًــٍــٌ) when followed by specific letters:
-
When followed by ظ (Zha) and ف (Fa), special pronunciation rules apply to ensure clarity and correctness in recitation.
-
Practicing Tajwid enhances one’s fluency and understanding of the Quranic text.

Hajj is obligatory only for those who can afford it.

It must be performed at least once in a lifetime.
