When Allah told the Prophet ﷺ to recite the Quran, He commanded that he does not just simply recite, but to “Recite it with tartil.” (73:4) عَلَيْهِ وَرَتِّلِ ٱلْقُرْءَانَ تَرْتِيلًا
Tartil is slowing down, pronouncing every word with care and giving the Quran enough space to be felt. That’s how the Prophet ﷺ recited, every sound distinct and every word deliberate.
This ayah shifts the focus away from speed. It reminds us that the Quran isn’t just about how much we can get through in one sitting but how much of it actually reaches us.
Try it tonight: take a short surah you already know and recite it with tartil. Don’t rush, let each word land and notice the difference it makes.
