How to master Quran Recitation?
The importance of the right way of reciting the Holy Quran is immense! Therefore, to master the recitation of the Quran with various famous Qiraats, you should take the Quran Recitation Course in Resala Academy.

Our Quran Tutors will help you to get acquainted with all the basics, review your concepts, revisit and then correct the incorrect concepts you might have acquired from elsewhere.
5 Tips to Improve Your Recitation of Quran
1. Recite as much as possible
Recite the Qur’an just as often as you can. The more you do it, the more you excel. Soon, in the same amount of time you used to take to read a few lines, you will read an unfamiliar page.
2. Practice the Quran recitation in your daily routine.
Without a doubt, the best way to build a new habit is to link it to an existing one. You need to link the habit of reciting the Quran in Arabic with something that you do every single day without fail. Something like brushing your teeth or putting on your clothes in the morning.
3. Learn the vocabulary of the Quran
The key to the whole process of understanding the Quran is learning the lists of Quranic vocabulary. If you learn about 300 words, that’s about 70% of the entire Quran. But you have to learn the right words.
4. Listen to seasoned reciters
Do you have a favorite reciter of the Holy Qur’an like Sheikh AbdulRahman as-Sudais or Mishary Alafasy? Follow their recitation and use it to practice your own recitation. You will learn how they pronounce certain words and how they undulate their voice to bring out that recitation that moves the heart.
5. Use the Mus’haf (Hard Copy of Holy Quran)
The mus’haf is the hard copy of the Holy Qur’an and you will find that it helps you stay in line with the tajweed rules that improve your Qur’anic recitation. This should be used concurrently with whatever online class or mobile application that you are using to improve your recitation.
The memorization of the Quran is an important religious practice for Muslims. The text of the Quran has 6,236 verses, which are arranged in 30 sections—forms the basis of daily prayer to and remembrance of Allah for Muslims. Also, Muslims have a firm belief that Quran memorization will be rewarded, in the hereafter because it is an act of worship.
The Holy Quran is the book of Allah Almighty, Who revealed it to His Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) as a guidance and reference for Muslims, and light for the nation of Islam. Allah Almighty is the keeper of the Glorious Quran to the end of the world, and it is also preserved in the hearts of Muslims. The Glorious Quran was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) by Allah Almighty when he peace be upon him) was worshiping in the cave of Hira by our chief Hazrat Gabriel (peace be upon him).
Since the Quran is the Book of Allah Almighty, when you memorize it, it will open all the doors of goodness on you. Memorizing the Quran is the best you can do! You will be rewarded the ten good deeds for every single letter of the Quran you will read and memorize. If you would like your ethics to be like the Prophet’s, you have to memorize the Quran.
All the stories of the successors and ancestors are preserved in the Quran. It includes all the sciences of this World and the Hereafter. Many of the scientific, legislative, medical, and cosmic facts are included in the Quran. This means that when you memorize the Quran, you memorize the world’s largest encyclopedia.
The Quran is a healer of all the physical and psychological diseases. When you decide to memorize the Quran, you won’t have extra time, boredom, nor a feeling of concern, fear, and stress. The Quran will remove all the concerns, grief, and accumulations of the past, you will be reborn.
