Master the world-renowned 61-line pedagogical masterpiece composed by Imam Sulayman al-Jamzuri. Learn, memorize, and receive an authentic oral Ijazah in the foundational rules of Nunation, Meem Sakinah, and Madd prolongations.
Composed in the 12th Islamic century by the esteemed Egyptian scholar Imam Sulayman al-Jamzuri, Tuhfat al-Atfal ('The Gift for Children and Beginners') is universally recognized across traditional Islamic seminaries as the premier foundational didactic poem for learning Tajweed theory. Comprising 61 memorable, rhyming poetic couplets in the Bahr al-Rajaz meter, this celebrated text codifies the core applied rules of Quranic recitation: Noon Sakinah, Tanween, the letters of Ghunnah, Meem Sakinah, Lam Shamsiyyah and Qamariyyah, and the precise classifications of Madd prolongations.
Our course offers complete line-by-line linguistic analysis, poetic meter breakdown, and practical recitation application. Guided 1-on-1 by certified Al-Azhar instructors holding continuous chains of transmission (Asanid) in the poem, students memorize the verses with correct melodic rhythm and immediately practice the rules directly upon the sacred pages of the Mushaf. Upon completing oral recitation from memory, students receive an official, attested Ijazah certificate.
