Question (Comment) (21 Rabee' Ath-thanee 1422/ July 12 2001)

May Allaah reward you tremendously for providing this resource to the Muslims. I was pleased to see the accuracy of the information and the use of 'Arabic when needed.  The Q&A should prove to be very helpful as well. I hope that you could, however, stress the importance of taking the Qur'aan TALAQQEAN as that's how it was revealed to Muhammad sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam and taken by our salaf.  Our brothers and sisters have a nice resource with your site, but at the same time they should be warned about the dangers of learning to recite the Qur'aan without a teacher to correct them, a teacher who has an ijaazah, or at least is free of mistakes in his/her pronunciation.  You may have something on this that I could not find, so if you do then please excuse me.
