Learn How To Read Al-Quran
1
Introduction
This book is designed for beginners who are eager to read Al-Quran via its Arabic
Uthmani script. It is a step-by-step guide for learning to read the Quranic script. The
learners are encouraged to engage a teacher to guide them through this book Inshallah.
After completing this book, the learner is encouraged to upgrade to the Book of Tajweed
Reach the Goal via Tajweed Rules to learn about Rules of Quran Recitation.
Using the Uthmani Script This book is one of few books that present all the Quranic words in their original
script (from Madinah Mushaf) which is the Uthmani script.
One thing that I can relate from my own experience in teaching Quran-reading is
that it is much simpler to read the Uthmani script because of the system of signs that is
only found in the Uthmani script.
Throughout my experiences in teaching Quran, I noticed how difficult it is for
those students who have been reading other scripts to read the Uthmani script because of
differences in the writing, style and system of signs.
Also, the Uthmani script is gaining more popularity throughout the muslim world
with the widespread and more generous distribution of copies in Madinah Mushaf.
The system of signs (vowels) in this script conforms to the way the Quran should
be recited and makes understanding and following the rules of Tajweed very natural.
Initially, this script may appear difficult but in the end it provides greater clarity and
precision.
This book can be used together with learn to write Arabic-Part I & II. It is
worth stressing the importance of learning to write the Arabic script during learning
reading. This is a necessary skill in its own right as a basis for further study of Arabic
language. Writing also helps tremendously in the process of mastering the reading of the
script, and for that reason, reading and writing should proceed together.
With the purpose of building the reading skill I have relied heavily on the mere
reading from the Uthmani script without bringing in any of the Tajweed rules. Learning
the rules of recitation can be the next goal and the learner will find the authors other book Reach the goal via Tajweed rules very useful.
May Allah bless this effort to contribute to the more widespread and continued reading of
the Holy Quran. I also pray that through this work many will take on themselves the
great task of learning Arabic as a language with a sole purpose to understand Allahs
Words.

(in the direction of writing from right to left). If they are in initial or median position,
they cause a graphic rupture in the word. So they have only two positions: single and
final. The letter which follows is automatically in initial position.

At-Tanween
The Meaning of At-Tanween:
It is a Noon Saakinah that occurs at the end of nouns ( 9)
.
Types of Tanween:
There are three types of Tanween:
1. Tanween Fat-hah: that is pronounced with Fathah on the letter joined to
Noon Saakinah
Example:
! = "! +# 2. Tanween Kasrah: that is pronounced with Kasrah on the letter joined to
Noon Saakinah
Example:
$! = %! + # 3. Tanween Dhammah: that is pronounced with Dhammah on the letter joined
to Noon Saakinah
Example:
&! =! + #
The way of pronunciation:
The Tanween always comes at the End of the word. So, the way the
Tanween is pronounced is like a Noon Saakinah at the end of the word.
9 Tanween occurs in Nouns except for 2 verbs in Quran.
