The rules of reciting The Holy Quraan
Ta-awuz:Tasmiyyah:
1) Before reciting, it is necassary to recite Ta-awuz. 2) Before beginning any Surah (except Surah Tawbah) it is necessary to recite Tasmiyyah. 3) If during recital the need arises to talk, even though it may be a single word, recite Ta-awuz before commencing the recitation of The Holy Quraan. 4) If one wishes to start the recital of The Holy Quraan from the middle of a Surah, it is optional to recite Tasmiyyah. However it is desirable to do so. 5) Ta-awuz is exclusive to The Holy Quraan. Do not recite Ta-wuz for any other literature.
NOTE:
Regarding the rules of Ta-awuz and Tasmiyyah, Surah Tawbah is an exception. If one wishes to start their recitation of The Holy Quraan from Surah Tawbah recite Ta-awuz only.
