The Importance of Learning مَخَارِج الْحُرُوفِ (The Articulation points of the Arabic Letters)

11 May 2022

The best thing a student of Tajweed could start with, is learning Makharij Al Huroof, in order to be able to pronounce every Arabic letter in a correct manner, and to avoid falling into changing the meaning of Quranic words. because pronouncing even a single letter in a wrong way is very likely to lead to a change in the meaning, which is of course prohibited.

Example of a change of meaning due to mixing between مخرج (Makhraj/Articulation Point) of ء & that of ع

  • علِيم (All-Knower)

May turn into

  • ألِيم (painful)

 

Example of a change of meaning due to mixing between مَخْرَج (Makhraj/Articulation Point) of ف & that of ك

  • قلْب (heart)

May turn into

  • كلْب (dog)

The well-known Imaan ibn Al-Jazaree says in his poem الْمُقَدِّمَةُ (Al Muqaddemah):

إذْ وَاجِبٌ عَلَيْهِمُ مُحَتَّمُ
قبْلَ الشُّرُوعِ أَوَّلاً أَنْ يَعْلَمُوا
For it is an indispensable obligation upon them (the reciters)
before starting that they first know.

مَخَارِجَ الْحُرُوفِ وَالصِّفَاتِ
ليَلْفِظُوا بِأَفْصَحِ اللُّغَاتِ

The Articulation points of the letters and their characteristics
in order to pronounce in the most eloquent of the languages (the Arabic language)
