For me it was very important, as I learned, to know the details and reason behind things, so my favorite part of the program was makharij and sifaat. I found the course very well structured, engaging and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The professionalism, passion and sheer love of the Qur&#8217;an of my teacher was simply infectious, may Allah reward them with good. Had I not relocated to another city I would definitely carry on with the al-Manhal course, I will really miss it and may Allah give me something as good or better.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Jazakum Allahu khayran to all the sisters working with al-Manhal Manchester, masha&#8217;Allah you are doing a great service to your fellow Muslimaat.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Agnese<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993300;\">I would like to describe myself as a non Arab who recites the Qur&#8217;an in a South east Asia accent.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993300;\">Since I landed in the UK 9 years ago, I looked for good Qur&#8217;an lessons but I\u00a0failed\u00a0to find one until recently. About 3years ago a sister in Manchester told me that Al Manhal opened registration for new students who wanted\u00a0to learn Tajweed in the Cheadle Hulme area. Well, I thought Allah listened my du&#8217;a and it was a chance for me to learn again from the basic to strengthen my capability of reciting the\u00a0Qur&#8217;an. I live in South Derbyshire which is quite far from Manchester. Alhamdulillah with my husband permission, I was able to drive to Manchester every week, in any weather for the lesson.\u00a0 I made up my mind and intention that it will be similar to going for hijrah.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993300;\">I honestly was not able to recite the Qur&#8217;an with much fluency. I knew the Arabic letters but my pronunciation was poor. Each time I recited, I made mistakes. The lessons were tough but with Allahs help, \u00a0I didn&#8217;t give up. It was a huge challenge for me. I followed all the advice and tips the teachers gave me. For example, she said a method of improving ones recitation was to increase the portion I recited daily at home and to to stick to that portion. She also said that a student cannot improve their recitation purely through coming and reciting in class &#8211; reciting at home daily was a must &#8211; she was so correct &#8211; this I have learnt.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993300;\">In the first year I spent alot of time \u00a0listening to a Qaree reciting ayah per ayah on the computer. I really enjoyed the hifdh element to the course because \u00a0Hifdh has been one of my \u00a0goals \u00a0since many years. Before the course I had memorised perhaps less than 10 short surahs from Juz &#8216;amma. Alhamdulillah after 3years on the course with al Manhal, I have memorised\u00a0the entire Juz &#8216;amma and the 1st Juz of\u00a0 Al Baqarah. With Allahs guidance and my teachers help, \u00a0I now understand and know many rules of tajweed, \u00a0alhamdulillah, and I have made a big improvement in my telawah and hifdh . My husband is happy and I believe\u00a0 Allah is happy too because I do this only for HIM insha Allah.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993300;\">A big thanks to my dear teacher and sister xxx who taught and still teaches me the theory of \u00a0Tajweed and how to correct\/improve my telawah . Masha Allah she explained the theory from \u00a0basic very well, with patience and full dedication. A big thanks also to sister xxx who is also a teacher helping with telawah, \u00a0I took her advice in not to give up climbing the mountain until reaching to the top. May Allah reward the dedication of the al Manhal teachers. They helped plant the seed and insha Allah I will spread the seed to others.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993300;\">Helena, Derbyshire<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">I have always wanted to be able to read Qur&#8217;an with perfection and then be able to teach it, ie pass my knowledge on. This is the only course I know of , that will help me achieve this. Sincere duas to all those who organise and run the courses.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Riffat, Gatley<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993300;\">It is my 4th year with Al Manhal &#8211; alhumdu lillah, a fantastically well structured course. \u00a0Alhumdu lillah, our teacher relayed all the course syllabus thoroughly and also gave us plently of extra time to cover the theory and the telawah. It would be a good idea to have arabic\/grammar as a separate course. \u00a0My duas for all the sisters who have worked to make this course work really well, and alhumdu lillah, the new course books that were introduced this year have proved valuable.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993300;\">Saddia, Levenshulme<\/span><\/p>\n<div><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">I have been a student at Al-Manhal Tajweed course for the last four years.\u00a0I had been looking for a tajweed course for quite some time and had not come across one with this level of teaching and structure, with\u00a0specific times allocated for theory, tilaawah and hifzh.\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">A class has a limited number of students, all at a similar tajweed level, to maximise the learning experience.\u00a0The quality of the teaching is exceptional, you rarely come across teachers with this level of commitment, providing you with all the support and resources to excel.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">The weekend classes are great for me as I work full time but there are many classes throughout the week in various locations so it is easy to find one where you will fit in and become a member of the Al-Manhal community.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">I believe the success of Al-Manhal over the past few years is due to the the level of commitment shown by both the teachers and the students who are aiming to please Allah swt and strive for excellence in the science of tajweed.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Aiysha, Hale<\/span><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993366;\">I have studied with almanhal for 5 years, from basic to advanced level tajweed. It is an excellent organisation that has very knowledgeable and dedicated staff that are always keen to help. I have really enjoyed my time throughout this course.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993366;\">Munazza, Altrincham<\/span><\/p>\n<div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">I started the al Manhal course 4 years ago after attending many Tajweed courses and frustratingly never seeming to progress. The al Manhal course was\u00a0very different from any other\u00a0Tajweed course I had attended.\u00a0 The course is very structured with a\u00a0strict syllabus that needs to be covered every year.\u00a0 I really felt\u00a0I was gaining benefit in every single lesson.\u00a0 The teachers are fantastic mashaa&#8217;Allah and are really committed to helping you learn.\u00a0 For anyone serious about perfecting their Tajweed I have not found a better course than this.\u00a0 May Allah bless the wonderful teachers and organisers and continue its success, ameen.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"> \u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Sarah, Riyadh<\/span><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">\n<p><span style=\"color: #993300;\">The course has been very beneficial for me\u00a0alhamdulilah and my knowledge has increased immensly. The teachers were very helpful and supportive\u00a0in answering my queries.\u00a0I have learned so much and I have found my recitiation with tajweed has improved with the help of Allah (swt) and my amazing teachers. I have enjoyed the course from start to finish and I hope others will do so too.
