Help Us Make Tajweed Free for All

For over a decade, Measured Tones Institute of Qur’an has been dedicated to making tajweed and Qur’anic studies accessible to Muslims around the world. From day one, our mission has been simple: to make fulfilling the farḍ ‘ayn (individual obligation) of reciting the Qur’an properly easy, affordable, and within reach of every Muslim.

Now, we’re launching our most ambitious initiative yet—making our flagship course, Tajweed Mastery, completely free. But we can’t do it without your help.

What is Tajweed Mastery?

Tajweed Mastery is not just another class. It’s a structured, semester-based course designed to take students through the technical rules of tajweed and, most importantly, their practical application.

Each week includes:

• One day of instruction
• One day focused on live application
• Small classes (8–10 students per section)
• Quizzes, tests, finals, and certificates
• Review games to keep learning fun

Free doesn’t mean low quality. These are professionally developed, high-impact classes, in shā’ Allāh.

How You Can Help

The more support we receive, the more teachers we can hire—and the more students we can serve. We’re seeking both one-time donations to launch this effort and monthly support to sustain it.

Here’s how you can make a difference:

50 people to give $50

50 people to give $100

25 people to give $250

10 people to give $500

5 people to give $1,000

Or become a monthly donor—starting at just $10/month (contact [email protected] for the details)

And of course, spreading the word is just as valuable. Share the campaign. Tell a friend. Make du‘ā.

Why Give to MTI?

At Measured Tones Institute, our vision is to offer FREE tajweed classes every day of the week, all year long, in shā’ Allāh. We firmly believe that no one should have to pay to fulfill their farḍ ‘ayn (individual obligation) when it comes to learning how to properly recite the Qur’an—especially if finances are a barrier.

At the same time, we are committed to honoring the people who make this mission possible. We do not want to rely on unpaid labor from our teachers. If they choose to volunteer, we are deeply grateful—but our goal is to compensate them fairly and, at the very least, provide meaningful gifts that show appreciation for their dedication and sacrifice.

Your donation also helps us maintain excellence and transparency behind the scenes. Funds support:

• Our Chief Financial Officer, ensuring accountability and compliance
• Essential software subscriptions and digital tools
• Ongoing operational and administrative expenses

When you give to MTI, you are not just donating—you are investing in sustainable Qur’an education and removing barriers for students who want to perfect their recitation for the sake of Allah.

Donate today, and may Allah accept it from you and multiply your reward. Āmīn.
