The scholars agree that reading Qur’aan with Tajweed (by applying the Tajweed rules of Qur’aan) is an individual obligation (Fard 3ayn) upon every Muslim. And of the proofs that the scholars bring to show that obligation is that Allaah says in the Qur’aan: 9:;<=ا 〈 ¸ξ‹Ï?ös?t β#uöà)ø9$#È≅Ïo?u‘uρ "And recite the Qur’an (aloud) in a (slow and melodious) style (tarteelaa)"
