*Wal-lazi Askara* is a well-known **muwashah** from the Andalusian-Arabic music tradition. It has been passed down through generations and is admired for its beautiful melody and poetic lyrics. Many musicians have performed it while keeping its emotional and cultural depth. In this arrangement, I kept the original character while adding harmonies that mix Eastern and Western styles. The piece follows the **Samaii Darej** rhythm, which gives it energy and movement. This version respects the traditional roots while bringing a fresh perspective.

RESEARCHES

Tajweed and Maquamat in Qur'anic recitation | التجويد و المقامات في التلاوة القرآنيّة
(2024-2025)

Ninth Read More Button

This research explores the relationship between Tajweed (Quranic phonetics and articulation rules) and Maqamat (melodic structures used in recitation). It provides a historical and analytical perspective on how these two elements interact in Quranic recitation, enhancing both pronunciation accuracy and emotional expression. The study examines the evolution of Tajweed, the introduction of Maqamat in recitation, and the influence of renowned Quranic reciters in shaping this art. By integrating precise phonetic rules with carefully selected melodic structures, reciters can convey the spiritual and emotional depth of the Quran, making its message more impactful for listeners. This research is written in Arabic, with the hope that it will be translated into English soon to reach a wider audience.
