| Bismillaah was-Salaatu was-Salaam 'alaa Rasoolillaah as-Salaamu 'alaykum wa Rahmatullaahi wa Barakaatuhu Dear Sister Are you interested in studying TAJWEED - the art of reciting the Qur'an correctly, something which is fard ayn (an individual obligation) on every Muslim? "Draw near to Allaah as much as you are able and know that you will never be able to draw near to him with anything more beloved to him than His words (the Qur'aan)" (Khabbab, narrated by al-Haakim) If so, then perhaps you can take a few minutes to fill out this questionnaire, in order to facilitate organising classes in the near future. At present the sister who has agreed to teach is open to the idea of teaching in the West London (Southhall or Muntada as possible locations), North London or South London areas, depending on the demand and the feasibility (time/travel restraints). Unfortunately at this time nothing can be offered to the sisters in the East London area as this teacher will not be able to travel there. HOWEVER If there were to be a sufficient demand from sisters from the area it is possible that something similar could be arranged with another teacher. The sister would appreciate it if you can fill in as many fields as possible, although all questions are optional, as this will make organising classes much easier - please bear in mind that this is the sole objective behind the questions, and so one should not feel intimidated if they have not studied any aspect of tajweed before, or have memorised a smaller amount from the Qur'aan or do not know any Arabic - the sister has reiterated that this is solely so she can have an idea of how to structure the lessons, what the content would be and what levels people are at. [You may email the completed questionnaires as word document attachments if you prefer - the sister would appreciate if it was done as soon as possible.] If you are not interested yourself please pass this onto any sisters that you know in the London area. Jazaakillaah Khair. Wassalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa Barakaatuhu TAJWEED QUESTIONAIRRE Name: Age: Phone No: Email Address: Area/Address: Are there currently any tajweed classes in your area?
