نبذة عن تاريخ علم التجويد أول من جمع هذا العلم في كتاب هو الإمام العظيم أبو عبيد القاسم بن سلام في القرن الثالث الهجري فقد ألف " كتاب القراءات " ، وقيل أن أول من ألف وجمع القراءات هو حفص بن عمر الدوري ، واشتهر في القرن الرابع الهجري الحافظ أبو بكر بن مجاهد البغدادي وهو أول من ألف في القراءات السبعة المشهورة ، وتوفي سنة 324 من الهجرة ، وفي القرن الخامس اشتهر الحافظ الإمام أبو عمرو عثمان بن سعيد الداني مؤلف كتاب ( التيسير) في القراءات السبع والذي صار عمدة القراء وله تصانيف كثيرة في هذا الفن وغيره. واشتهر في هذا العلم أيضاً الإمام مكي بن أبي طالب القيسي القيرواني وقد ألف كتبًا لا تعد ولا تحصى في القراءات وعلوم القرآن. وفي القرن السادس الهجري اشتهر شيخ هذا الفن الذي تسابق العلماء إلى لاميته وانكبوا عليها انكباب الفراش على النور تلك هي الشاطبية التي أسماها " حرز الأماني ووجه التهاني " نظم فيها القراءات السبعة المتواترة في ألف ومائة وثلاثة وسبعين بيتًا (1173). ذاك هو أبو القاسم بن فيرة بن خلف بن أحمد الرعيني الشاطبي الأندلسي ، توفي سنة 590 من الهجرة ، وبعده ما زالت العلماء في هذا الفن تترى في كل عصر وقرن حاملين لواء القرآن الكريم آخذين بزمام علومه قراءة وتطبيقاً ، صارفين الأعمار لخدمته تصنيفاً وتحقيقاً ، حتى قيض الله عز وجل له إمام المحققين وشيخ المقرئين محمد بن الجزري الشافعي فتتلمذ عليه خلق لا يحصون وألف كتباً كثيرة أشهرها (النشر في القراءات العشر) ونظم في التجويد (المقدمة فيما على قارئه أن يعلمه). | |||||

علم التجويد لغة : هو التحسين ، يقال جودت الشيء أي حسنته ، وأيضاً ، تجويد الشيء في لغة العرب إحكامه وإتقانه ، يقال : فلان جود الشيء أي حسنه وأجاده إذا أحكم صنعه وأتقن وضعه وبلغ منه الغاية في الإحسان والكمال . | |||||
| |||||
أما تعريف التجويد في الاصطلاح عند أئمة الأداء فهو قسمان : الأول : معرفة القواعد والضوابط التي وضعها علماء التجويد ، وهذا القسم يسمى بالتجويد العلمي أو النظري ، وحكمه بالنسبة لعامة المسلمين مندوب ، وحكمه بالنسبة لأهل العلم فهو واجب كفائي ، فإن قامت به طائفة منهم سقط الإثم والحرج عن باقيهم ، وإن لم يقم به طائفة منهم من التعلم والتعليم أثموا جميعاً . الثاني : فيسمى بالتجويد العملي أو التطبيقي ، وهو إخراج كل حرف من مخرجه دون تحريف أو تغيير. | |||||
| |||||
حكم تعليم التجويد أما حكم علم التجويد فهو فرض كفاية بالنسبة لعامة المسلمين ، وفرض عين بالنسبة لرجال الدين من العلماء والقراء ، حتى إن بعض العلماء يرى أن تطبيقه في قراءة حديث رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم حسن جيد . حكم العمل بعلم التجويد شرعاً : أما حكم العمل بعلم التجويد شرعاً فهو واجب عيني على كل قارئ مكلف يقرأ القرآن كله أو بعضه لقوله تعالى ومن السنة أيضاً قوله صلى الله عليه وسلم "اقرءوا القرآن بلحون العرب وأصواتها ، وإياكم ولحون أهل الفسق والكبائر، فإنه سيجيء أقوام من بعدي يرجعون القرآن ترجيع الغناء والرهبانية والنوح ، لا يجاوز حناجرهم ، مفتونة قلوبهم وقلوب من يعجبهم شأنهم "رواه مالك والنسائي والبيهقي والطبراني . فقوله صلى الله عليه وسلم : "لا يجاوز حناجرهم "أي لا يقبل ولا يرتفع لأن من قرأ القرآن على غير ما أنزل الله تعالى ، ولم يراع فيه ما أجمع عليه ، فقراءته ليست قرآناً وتبطل به الصلاة ، كما قرره ابن حجر في الفتاوى وغيره ، قال شيخ الإسلام بن تيمية : "والمراد بالذين لا يجاوز حناجرهم الذين لا يتدبرونه ولا يعملون به ، ومن العمل به تجويده وقراءته على الصفة المتلقاة من الحضرة النبوية " وقال الشيخ برهان الدين القلقيلي بعد أن ذكر الحديث السابق قال : "وقد صح أن النبي _صلى الله عليه وسلم _ سَمى قارئ القرآن بغير تجويد فاسقاً "وهو مذهب الإمام الشافعي رضي الله عنه . أما الإجماع : فقد أجمعت الأمة على وجوب التجويد من زمن النبي _صلى الله عليه وسلم _ إلى زماننا ولم يُختلف فيه عند أحد منهم ، ودليل الإجماع من أقوى الحجج .
| |||||
| |||||
أقوال أهل العلم في علم التجويد فمن الأقوال الهامة في شأن التجويد : يقول الإمام الجزري "من لم يجود القرآن آثم ". قال بعض شراح الجزرية في هذا القول أن من لم يجود القرآن معاقب على ترك التجويد كذاب على الله ورسوله داخل في حيز قوله تعالى وقال بعضهم : لا تصح صلاة قارئ مجيد خلف أمي لا يجيد .
| |||||
| |||||
أهمية التلقي في تعليم القرآن وأدائه إن للتلقي الأهمية العظمى في تعليم القرآن وأدائه ، لأن هناك كلمات قرآنية يختلف نطقها عن رسمها نحو "أولأذبحنه "كما في سورة النمل وكلمة "بأييدٍ "كما في قوله تعالى | |||||
| |||||
أركان القراءة 1 ـ صحة الإسناد . 2 ـ موافقة الرسم العثماني ولو احتمالاً . 3 ـ موافقة القراءة لوجه من وجوه النحو . وقال الإمام الجزري وكل ما وافق وجه نحوي وكان للرسم احتمالا يحوي وصح إسنادا هو القرآن فتلك الثلاثة الأركان | |||||
| |||||
التجويد علم موضوع أما موضوعه فهو الكلمات القرآنية من حيث إعطاء الحرف حقه ومستحقه . ويعتبر علم التجويد من أهم العلوم التي توافرت على خدمة كتاب الله _ عز وجل_ بل هو أولاها وأشرفها .
| |||||
| |||||
واضع علم التجويد أما واضعه من الناحية العملية فهو رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، ومن ناحية وضع قواعده فهو الخليل بن أحمد الفراهيدي وغيره من أئمة القراء والتابعين وأتباعهم رضي الله عنهم . ولنعلم أن الله _تعالى _ أنزل القرآن الكريم من اللوح المحفوظ إلى جبريل _عليه السلام _على هذه الكيفية من التحرير والتجويد ، وأن جبريل _عليه السلام علمه النبي _ صلى الله عليه وسلم _ على هذه الكيفية وتعلمه منه الصحابة _ رضى الله عنهم _ثم تعلمه منهم التابعون ؛ حتى نقل إلينا جيلاً بعد جيل ، بطريق التواتر الذي يفيد القطع واليقين .وهذا يدل على أن هذا العلم توقيفي ، فليس لأحد أن يتحول عنه قيد أنملة ، ومن فعل فهو معتد أثيم . | |||||
| |||||
فائدة علم التجويد وغايته لعلم التجويد فوائد كثيرة من أهمها حسن الأداء وجودة التلاوة واللذان يوصلان إلى سعادتي الدنيا والآخرة ، وصون اللسان عن اللحن في كلام الله _عز وجل _ واللحن : هو الميل عن الصواب ، وهو الخطأ في القرآن الكريم . |

--I heard Allah's Apostle (p.b.u.h) saying, "We (Muslims) are the last (to come) but (will be) the foremost on the Day of Resurrection though the former nations were given the Holy Scriptures before us. And this was their day (Friday) the celebration of which was made compulsory for them but they differed about it. So Allah gave us the guidance for it (Friday) and all the other people are behind us in this respect: the Jews' (holy day is) tomorrow (i.e. Saturday) and the Christians' (is) the day after tomorrow (i.e. Sunday)."
-- ISLAM began as something strange, and it will become thus again, as it was at the beginning. Blessed, therefore, are the strangers.
(He was asked who the strangers are:)
The strangers are those who restore what the people have corrupted of my law, as well as those who revive what has been destroyed of it.
-- You will not enter paradise until you believe, and you will not believe until you love one another.
Let me guide you to something in the doing of which you will love one another.
Give a greeting to everyone among you.
-- I was delegated as a prophet to perfect moral virtues.
-- Good character is half of faith.
-- God is merciful to those who show mercy to others.
-- Power consists not in being able to strike another, but in being able to control oneself when anger arises.
-- Honor your children and thus improve their manners.
-- The three best things:
to be humble amidst the vicissitudes of fortune;
to pardon when powerful;
to be generous with no strings attached.
-- Whoever does not express his gratitude to people will never be grateful to God.
-- The best people are those who are most useful to others.
-- Living among others is a cause for blessing, while seclusion is the cause of torment.
-- Happy is the person who finds fault with himself instead of finding fault with others.
-- From morning until night and from night until morning keep your heart free from malice towards anyone.
-- A perfect Muslim is one from whose tongue and hands mankind is safe.
-- Islam is purity of speech and hospitality.
-- Every religion has a distinctive virtue and the distinctive virtue of Islam is modesty.
-- Greet those whom you know and those whom you don't know.
-- When asked what was most excellent in a human being, he answered, "A friendly disposition."
Masjid Nabvi (Sunehri Jaliyan)
-- The best of God's servants are those who when seen remind you of God; and the worst of God's servants are those
who spread tales to do mischief and separate friends, and look for the faults of the good.
-- Whoever believes in one God and the Hereafter, let him speak what is good or remain silent.
-- He is the best Muslim whose disposition is most liked by his own family.
-- Respect the guest and do not inconvenience your neighbors. The faithful are as one person. If a man complains of a pain in his head, his whole body complains; and if his eye complains, his whole body complains.
-- He is not of us who is not affectionate to the little ones and does not respect the reputation of the old.
-- Truly, the farthest seat from me on the day of resurrection will be the garrulous, those who talk glibly, and those who talk tall. And who is it that talk tall? The vain-glorious.
-- God is gentle and loves gentleness.
-- Inscribed on the prophet's sword:
Forgive him who wrongs you; join him who cuts you off; do good to him who does evil to you;
and speak the truth even if it be against yourself.
-- Whoever restrains his anger when he has the power to show it, God will give him a great reward.
-- Backbiting is more grievous than adultery,
and God will not forgive the backbiter until the one wronged has forgiven him.
-- Keep yourselves far from envy, because it eats up and takes away good actions as
fire consumes and burns the wood.
-- What actions are most excellent?
To gladden the heart of a human being,
to feed the hungry, to help the afflicted,
to lighten the sorrow of the sorrowful, and to remove the wrongs of the injured.
Seal of Hazrat Mohammad Mustafa Sallalla Hu Alaihewalsm
This picture shows the location of the "Rocky Belt" which shows the moon was once split.
The unbelievers of Makkah said to the prophet that if you are truly a prophet split the moon and if you do we shall believe. It was a full moon that night...And so the prophet prayed to Allah to grant him this miracle, and the moon was split. Half was seen over Mount. Saffa, and the other half was seen over Mount. Kaikaan.
The people said that the prophet has placed a spell on us, however if he played a trick on us, then he cant play a trick on all the people in the world! Abu Jahl then said: "let us wait until the people of Albadiah come, and if they saw the moon split, then it is true, if not then we all know it was a trick of magic. When the people of Albadiah came they said that they too saw the moon split, and the disbelievers said "oh, how powerful Mohammad's magic is!"
Then Allah revealed Surat al Qamar: "The hour has come near and the moon has split, and when they see a sign, they turn and say 'this is a continuous magic' and they disbelieved and followed their desires..."
This took place in the days of the prophet Muhammad in Makkah
In one of Dr. Zaghlool Al-Najaar's seminars, in one of the British universities said: "The miracle of the plitting of the moon has been proven recently"... " One of the British brothers who is very concerned about the state of Islam "Dawood Musa" who is the new chairman of the british muslims party who is planning to enter the coming elections under the banner of islam, which is spreading extremely fast in the west said "While he was searching for a religion, a friend gave him a copy of the Quran translated in english. He opened it and came across surat Al-Qamar and read "The hour has come and the moon has split", looking at this he said 'The moon has split?!' He then stopped reading and did not open it again.
Then one day while whatching a program on the BBC, The broadcaster was talking with three American scientists, and the broadcaster was blaming America for spending billons of dollars on space projects, in a time where millions of people are suffering from poverty.
The scientists were trying to explain why it is important to go into space exploration
Soon the scientists came to discuss the most expensive trip to the moon, which costed about 100 billion dollars, so the broadcaster asked them "So to put the American flag on the moon you spent this much internal structure of the moon to see what similarities it has with the Earth, and they said that they were surprised to find a 'Belt of Rocks' that goes from the surface of the moon right to the inner depths.
Being quite surprised, they gave this information to their geologists, who were also surprised, as they concluded that this couldn't be unless the moon was once split and resealed. The rocks on the belt are a result of the impact during the time that the two halves of the moon recombined.
Watching this brother Dawood Mussa jumped off his seat screaming "This is Muhammad's miracle which occurred more than 1400 years ago, and now the Americans are spending billions of dollars to prove it to the Muslims. He then said "This must surely be a true religion, and so, where once Surat Al-Qamar was a cause for him disbeleiving in Islam, it was now the reason for his embracing Islam...
