Question (27 Jamad Al-Awwal 1425/July 15, 2004)    

Assalamu Aleikum

I have a few questions about the vowel counts during the mudood. I understand the process of 2, 4, and 6 vowel counts during the mudood. However my difficulty is to be able to know how the reciter uses either 4 or 6 vowel counts in the recitation. As far as the recitation of Hafs by the way of Ash Shatibbiyah is concerned, how can I know that 4 or 6 vowel counts have been used? Is there a way for me to calculate or rather count the vowels in my mind in order to know that this is either 4 or 6 counts?
I hope you understand my question. I can differentiate the counts from each other because of their length (one is longer than the other etc), but I would like to be able to know for myself with certainty the technique to be able to count the proper way.

May Allah help you find the easy answer inshallah

a) What does it mean when a reciter (Qari) uses or knows maqaam (or maqamaat)in the recitation?
b) Sometimes in surat nâzi'at verse 27 , some qaris recite as: "A antumuu...". Since this way of reciting verse 27 is neither Hafs or Warsh, would you please tell me which way it is?

different from the riwaayah of Hafs (by the way of Ash Shaatibbiya) as far as the
way it (Qaloon) is read?

2) Just like the recitation of Hafs is recited by ways such as Ash

Question (5 Jamad Al-Awwal 1425/June 23, 2004)    

Assalamu Aleikum

1. Usually, qualified masters of the Quran teach the rules of Tajweed and of course the reading of the Quran to students. Although Allah the Almighty sent down the revelation to prophet Muhammad (), is it correct to say that Allah was his teacher? If no, who then taught prophet Muhammad () the rules of Tajweed and the reading of the Quran?

2. In surat al Qiyâmah verse 16 "Lâ tuharrik bihii lisanaka lita' djalabih" (Move not your tongue  concerning (the Quran, O Muhammad) to make haste therewith) What is the message in the verse that we all have to keep in mind when reading the Quran?

Is it to read slowly by respecting the rules of Tajweed and not read fast without understanding the meaning of what we are reading?

I hope you understand the question inshallah. May Allah give you the right answers inshallah.
