Abstract (2. Language):
The Quran is unique in its style, phonetics, words structure and many other aspects that never
changed thoroughout the history. One important dimension of the Quranic ijaz is to address
not only to minds but also with its special acoustic and musicality to the ears and hearts of the
listener. The structure of the letters, their various other features have a great richness of
phonetics. Vocal harmony indicates how beautiful this harmony too. Complementarity of
sound and discourse is very well known caracteristic in the Quran. The rules of tajwid is key
term in the recitation of the Quran. If one cannot read the Qur’an in accordance with its rules
of tajwid, many features of the Qur’anic recitation will be lost in this performance. This is
similar to the poetry which is written in accordance with the rule of poetic measure. The
endings and beginnings of the verses, the fawasil of the verses, thematic and ryhtimical
harmony among the Qur’anic passages have great impact on the listeners. Furthermore,
everyone, whether fluent Arabic speakers or non-Arabic speakers, can see, feel and appriciate
this impact.
