The Noorani Qaida is a beginner’s guide to the Arabic language and Quranic recitation, developed by Molvi Noor Muhammad Ludhyanvi in the late 19th century. It is widely used around the world, particularly in madrasas (Islamic schools), for teaching both children and adults the basics of Arabic phonetics, pronunciation, and Tajweed rules.
The book systematically introduces learners to:
- Arabic letters (with individual, connected, and isolated forms).
- Vowels and diacritics (such as Fatha, Kasra, and Damma).
- Basic rules of Tajweed (like Ikhfa, Idgham, and Qalqalah).
- Word formation and Quranic sentences to practice fluency.
Mastering Noorani Qaida ensures that students can read any Arabic text fluently and recite the Quran with the correct pronunciation.
