Tajweed Quran - XL 10x14"

This is the extra-large deluxe color-coded Tajweed Qur'an (Mushaf at-Tajweed / مصحف التجويد) in what is traditionally called mosque size. It measures 10 x 13.5 inches with a 1.25 inch spine (25 x 35 x 3 cm) — larger than a sheet of US Letter paper — and weighs 5.10 lbs (2.3 kg) across 669 full-color pages, hardbound. Opened flat on a stand it spans roughly 20 inches across, and every word remains legible from a normal seated distance.

This is the size to buy for a masjid rihal, a Qur'an class where students read along from a shared copy, or a reader whose eyesight makes standard print a strain. Several customers who wear prescription glasses have told us this is the first mushaf they can read without additional magnification. It is heavy enough that it is meant to live on a stand or table rather than travel with you.

Why Recite From a Tajweed Qur'an

Tajweed is not an optional refinement — it is the manner in which the Qur'an was revealed and the manner in which the Prophet ﷺ recited it. Yet most students learn the rules in a classroom and then lose them the moment they open a plain mushaf, because nothing on the page reminds them where a madd stretches, where a letter is nasalized, or where a qalqalah echoes. Errors settle into muscle memory and become progressively harder to correct.

A color-coded Tajweed Qur'an closes that gap. The rule is printed into the word itself, so you apply it as you read rather than recalling it afterwards. In practice this means three things: beginners and reverts can recite correctly from their first week instead of waiting years; parents and teachers can hear a child self-correct without interrupting every ayah; and long-time reciters catch the habits that no one ever pointed out to them. Because the coding is visual it works from any language background — Arabic, Urdu, English, Bengali, Somali, Turkish — and it keeps working during taraweeh, on the commute, or in halaqah, wherever the mushaf goes. Above all it frees the mind from tracking rules so attention can rest where it belongs, on the meaning of what Allah has said.

Tajweed Rules Shown in Color

At this scale the color coding is unmistakable across the room. Dar Al Maarifah groups the letters phonologically and prints each class in its own color:

• Red — letters needing extended vocalization (madd)
• Green — nasalized letters (ghunnah, ikhfa, idgham)
• Dark blue — emphatic pronunciation of ر (raa')
• Light blue — qalqalah, the echoing letters
• Gray — silent letters, written but not sounded

Twenty-four rules of tajweed become self-evident on the page. For a teacher this removes the need to interrupt a student mid-ayah to point out a madd or a ghunnah — the page has already made the point.
