The word Tajweed means doing something well. It is to recite every letter correctly from its proper origin (makhraj) with its all qualities.

Learning “Tajweed” is very important for recitation because applying the rules of Tajweed protect us from making mistakes.

There are two types of mistakes. 1:- Clear Mistake (اللَّحن الْجَلِى): It is changing a letter or changing a sign (harakah). This type of mistake is haraam. 2:- Hidden Mistake (اللَّحن الخَفِى): It is ignoring ghunnah, ikhfa, iqlab, idgham etc. We should avoid this type of mistake.

The place from where a letter comes out from our mouth is called makhraj.
