Abstract
This article explains the history of the science of tajweed, how this discipline evolved and that Imam Khalil Nahvi is the founding father of this discipline. Besides, it has also been explained that it were the imams of the science of Nahv (syntax) who were in fact compiler of the art and science of tajweed and that they are the ones to whom the credit of compilation of articulation and their features goes. Their successors further excelled in this science by defining and explaining the various aspects and presenting tajweed as a separate discipline. Thereafter, the article discusses how the discipline of tajweed was introduced in Indo-Pak Subcontinent. In this regard two phases have been spotlighted: firstly when initially Muslims came to India and brought with them the art and science of tajweed followed by Sufis or mystics who found an abode in India to further fine tune this science. The second phase starts when, the disciples of Qari Abdullah, Qari Abdur Rehman and Qari Abdul Malik came to India. Presently, most of the qaris in India and Pakistan endorse their connection through them.
