In this article, we’ll guide you through steps & tips to make your Quran recitation correct and beautiful.
Learn How to Read Quran in Arabic
The first and most basic step towards mastering Quran recitation is to learn how to read Quran in Arabic.
Allah (SWT) revealed the Quran to the prophet Muhammad (PBUH) in the Arabic language. Thus by learning Quranic Arabic, you will have a better understanding of the Quran, its subtleties, and its meanings. This is essential to learn to recite Quran because you can’t learn anything properly unless you understand it well.
Moreover, Allah (SWT) has confirmed the importance of reading the Quran in Arabic at the following Quranic verse:
Indeed, We have sent it down as an Arabic Qur’an that you might understand.
The Holy Quran [12:2]

Learn How to Recite Quran with Tajweed
After learning Quran reading in Arabic, you should start learning how to recite Quran applying Tajweed rules.
Tajweed Quran means giving every letter of the Quran its rights and dues of characteristics upon reciting the Quran and observing the rules that apply to those letters in different situations.
What makes Tajweed essential to learning how to recite Quran properly is that the holy Quran is actually the words of Allah (SWT). So it must be recited correctly without errors. Learning Tajweed Quran makes you recite the Quran perfectly according to the way of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).

Listen to Featured Quran Reciters
One of the best ways to learn how to recite the Quran like A pro is listening to famous Quran reciters whose voice you love.
Listen to their beautiful recitation again and again on TV, laptop, or mobile, so that you become familiar with the correct pronunciation. Follow their recitation and use it to practice your own Quran recitation.
Moreover, the act of listening to the Quran itself is a sunnah, and you may receive Allah’s (SWT) blessings for doing so. In this regard, Allah Almighty said:
So when the Qur’an is recited, then listen to it and pay attention that you may receive mercy.
The Holy Quran [7:204]
Listening and repeating what you have heard is a well-known method of learning called “Auditory learning”. You store the voice & words in memory by the way of sounds which helps you to recite the Quran correctly in a much easier way than following written instructions.
We must mention that it’s not necessary to recite exactly as the reciters. The goal is to use their recitations to practice how to recite Quran properly.

Practice on Improving Your Quran Recitation Consistently
Consistency, persistence, and repetition have always been the secret weapon of learning anything. So if you want to learn to recite Quran or become Hafiz Quran, constant practice is your way to achieve your goals.
If the Arabic language is not your first language, you could easily forget how to recite the Qur’an properly. Therefore, you should consistently recite portions of the Quran every day using the rules of Tajweed and attempting to beautify your voice.

You can also practice reciting Quran throughout your day in waiting time and spare time such as when you are on transportation or while you are waiting to meet a friend.
