This is the largest printed Qur'an available anywhere — the double mosque size Tajweed Qur'an (Mushaf at-Tajweed / مصحف التجويد). Each page measures 13.5 x 19.5 inches with a 1.5 inch spine (35 x 50 x 4 cm), and the volume weighs 11.76 lbs (5.3 kg) across 611 hardbound full-color pages. Opened flat it spans roughly 27 inches across — wide enough that the Arabic remains readable from several feet away.
At this scale it becomes usable in ways smaller mushafs are not. Readers with significant vision loss can recite without magnifiers. An imam can read from a stand while standing. A page of this size holds a full portion of text without the eye jumping between lines, which reduces missed pronunciations during recitation. It requires a large stand or a dedicated table — this is not a mushaf to carry.
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.
What This Edition Includes
- Complete Uthmani text in the Hafs 'an 'Asim reading, fully color coded for tajweed
- Explanatory commentary printed in the page margins
- Charts of the tajweed rules in both English and Arabic
- A comprehensive contents section for locating words and subjects throughout the Qur'an
The Color System
Dar Al Maarifah classified the letters by their phonological behavior and gave each class a printed color:
- Red — extended vocalization (madd)
- Green — nasalization (ghunnah, ikhfa, idgham)
- Dark blue — emphatic ر (raa')
- Light blue — qalqalah, the echoing letters
- Gray — letters written but not pronounced
Twenty-four rules of tajweed are conveyed visually, applied with ease and precision while the reader's mind stays on the meaning of what is being recited.
