Guidance

Guidance on Beautifying Your Recitation

وَرَتِّلِ الْقُرْآنَ تَرْتِيلًا

Wa rattilil-qur'ana tartila

And recite the Quran with measured recitation (tartil).
QS Al-Muzzammil: 4

Tartil, meaning reading calmly and in an orderly way according to the rules, is the aim of tahsin at Arabi, for clean recitation is born of calm and accuracy.

Method

Four Stages of Recitation Improvement in the Arabi Method

The Metode Arabi for Tahsin and Tilawah in Yogyakarta arranges every learning step gradually, in step with the culture of seeking knowledge already rooted in the lives of Muslim families in Yogyakarta. Tahsin at Arabi advances in order, from correcting the foundation of the letter sounds to shaping the beauty of the reading. Each stage is heard directly and moves forward once the stage before it reads clean.

  1. Assessment and Recitation Mapping

    In the opening session the ustadz hears your recitation from end to end and notes the mistaken habits that usually slip by unnoticed, such as letters that get exchanged, a mad cut too short, or a nasal sound left out. What comes of it becomes your own improvement map.

  2. Correcting the Makhraj and the Qualities of Letters

    Each letter is drilled again from its correct point of articulation, and then its quality is set. Letters that sit close in sound, such as sin and shin or ha and kha, are practiced apart until distinguishing them precisely becomes second nature.

  3. Arranging the Rules of Tajwid

    Once the letter sounds run clean, the rules of tajwid are laid over real verses step by step, opening with the rules of nun sukun and tanwin, then the rules of mim sukun, ghunnah, and after that the kinds of mad and the length of each.

  4. Tartil and an Introduction to Tilawah

    The pace of your recitation is settled into calm and orderly tartil, complete with the marks of waqaf and ibtida. From there you are introduced to the gentleness of tilawah, so your reading feels calm and pleasant to hear.

Learning Map

The Stages of Tahsin, from Correcting Sounds to Tilawah

Four steps in sequence that each build on the one before. You begin from the assessment result, then climb once the earlier stage reads clean.

Stage

  1. 1 Makhraj in Place Correcting the point of articulation of each letter and drilling letters with close sounds apart, until their sounds are told apart precisely.
  2. 2 Qualities of Letters Established Fixing the quality of each letter, such as qalqalah, hams, jahr, and isti'la, so every letter is read with its correct trait.
  3. 3 Tajwid Refined Laying the rules of nun sukun, mim sukun, ghunnah, and the kinds of mad over real verses step by step, until the application holds steady.
  4. 4 Tartil and Tilawah Settling the pace into calm tartil with correct waqaf and ibtida, then meeting the gentleness of tilawah.

Each stage opens with an example from the ustadz, then guided practice, then repetition until the correct pattern takes root.
