Tafkheem & Tarqeeq \ Tajweed Rules

Tafkheem & Tarqeeq

Tafkheem

It is heaviness that enters the body of the letter, so that the mouth is filled with its reverberation.

Tafkheem is elevating the posterior tongue to the roof of the mouth(soft palate), creating more space between the roof of the mouth and the bottom of the mouth, and focusing the pressure of the letter to the roof of the mouth.
