Abstract

The art of reciting the Holy Quran is an effective and beautiful medium for reflecting on the teachings and teachings of God, which can have a tremendous impact on the souls and souls of people. Due to its association with divine miracles throughout the history of Islam, especially in the last two centuries, this art has gained special importance and place among the Muslims of the world. The present article has investigated the aspects of the art of reciting the Holy Quran by using library sources and based on the teachings of the Quran and Islamic traditions and surveying the stages of describing, analyzing and explaining the art of reciting the Holy Quran. In this regard, the artistic dimensions of reciting the Quran were examined in cases such as sound, tone, interpretation and memorization of the Quran to show the artistic dimensions of reciting the Quran. Finally, one of the most important aspects of the art of recitation is getting to know the meaning and meaning of the verses through memorizing the Quran, reciting with pronouncing and tajweed, and using the correct endowment and initiation.
