https://lnkd.in/e3HSMVN8 As-Salaamu Alaikum, In this special gathering, Ahmed Amsa beautifully recites the entire classical Tajweed poem Tuhfat al-Atfaal from memory — a foundational text studied by students of Qur’anic recitation around the world. Upon completion, he is granted an official Ijaazah in the poem, marking a significant milestone in his journey of sacred knowledge. Tuhfat al-Atfaal is one of the most widely memorized introductory poems in the science of Tajweed, authored by the great scholar Sulayman al-Jamzuri. For centuries, it has served as a key stepping stone for students seeking precision in Qur’anic recitation. Ahmed Amsa is a proud graduate of Al-Huda School (including its Hifzh program), where he completed his memorization of the Qur’an under the guidance of Shaykh Zahid Adetoro. He also received his first Ijaazah in the recitation of Hafs ‘an ‘Asim through the path of Ash-Shatibiyyah from Hammad Hai. 📍 School Address: 5301 Edgewood Rd, College Park, MD 20740, United States — home to Al-Huda’s full-time Islamic school and Hifzh programs.
