Feel the Flow: Learn Madd Lazim for Beautiful Quran Recitation

madd laazim in quran lesson 4

Want to improve your Quran recitation? Learning Madd Lazim is a great next step.

Mad lazim is the longest type of stretch in Tajweed. It’s not flexible – it’s fixed. That’s why it’s also called Madd lazzim, which means “mandatory stretch.”

Whenever a Madd letter (ا، و، or ي) is followed by a Sukoon or a Shaddah, you must stretch the sound for six Harakat. No more, no less.

This rule might sound a bit strict, but once you see a few examples, it starts to feel easy and even fun. It gives your recitation a smooth, powerful rhythm.

Why Madd Lazim Matters

Understanding Madd lazim helps you:

  • Recite the Quran with proper Tajweed
  • Avoid shortening where a full stretch is required
  • Follow the rhythm used by expert reciters

Watch the video lesson to hear how Madd lazzim sounds and see how it’s used in real Quranic words.
