Sorry if this topic already came up...If it has please direct to where it could be found.

I have a problem with my recitation in prayer. I want to beautify my recitation like the Prophet (saw) encouraged. I frequently lead the prayer in family gatherings because I am forced to. My intention is never to show off. I just hear from family members that when they listen to a beautified recitation of the Quran they are able to focus more in prayer, it sometimes puts them in tears. I am just wondering how can I better my recitation and beautify it. It takes practice but do I need to hire a Qari. My Grandfather is a Qari but I cannot ask him but I have other people that I may ask...what do you guys think I can do. I know some of the you brothers having amazing voice when they recite. Some completely change their voice!! :?
 
:sl:

Have you tried trying to follow and copy the recitation of a known qari or Sheikh..like of a CD/Tape?
 
^^^ Yes I have... How do some change their voice and keep it consistent while they recite?

sorry i don't mean to be rude but can i ask who's recitation you tried to copy..it'll make it easier for me to understand hoepfully..Inshallah
 
Try breathing techniques first so that you can control your breath abit, and then you can do like different levels and experiment, then you get a recitation of Mishary Rashid Al Efasy and you go with that, but never copy their pitch, only copy their style, hope that makes sense. Make du'a of course. I've been having kinda similar problem, I've had like a bloked nose for months, I dont know how to make it go away lol.

I tried copying the Imam at a masjid that I used to go to

I also tried copying Sh. Ghamdi but did not work.... I cannot copy someone who has a really deep voice like Sh. Mishary Al Efasy.
 
Salamualikum.
Subhnallah, you made a smile put on my face . Mashallah am proud of you brother that you lead salah at family gatherings thats very nice to hear indeed.

Well take my advice dude, go into a hall or an empty room and get a mic and all day long just recite inshallah along with have the reciations who you wana copy and just read after him. Gradually you will feel the change in your voice. If not then always listen to Qura'an and recite along with the dude Inshallah there will be a better change displayed.

If you want to you can always have a friend beside you and you reciting every certain day and then your friend can associate with you by informing what change has been displayed inshallah. It is hard dude, but you can do it there's always hope. Also a good idea is take breathing deep breaths learn that first then slowy by slowly your breathing will develop.

Just listen to Qari-Basit's reciation every time i don't mean just 'once a day' but always and recite along with him and you will get the change. It doesn't happen within a flash but it happens gradually it takes time. Trust me been there done that and still am but it takes time. Inshallah take it easy don't stress and do it soothly.

May Allah subhwnatallah make it easy for you and others inshallah. You walk towards allah subhwnatallah he will run towards you thats the beauty of your lord. Just focus on him with right intention. Have any questions please feel free to ask inshallah. Am always here to help
