INTRODUCTION
All praise to Allah, the Lord of the worlds, and peace and salutations to our leader, the
Prophet Mohammad, and to his family and companions, and those who follow them
in benevolence until the Day of Resurrection. And further:
Qur'an is the Book of guidance for whole mankind. Qur'an is the guidance for every
aspect of life. Qur'an is the Divine book towards which Muslims turn when there is
problem because Qur'an has the solution to every problem. Recitation of Qur'an
brings reward from Allah; it also brings other benefits in the form of the cleansing of
the heart, a chance of communication with Allah and thus becoming a better Muslim.
The Noble Qur'an is a highly admired Book of Allah that requires proper
understanding and recitation. Indeed the Book of Allah is not a book like any other, it
is the timeless Speech of Allah, not a created thing, and the study guide for life and
death and what comes after. Therefore it deserves a more careful study than anyone
else’s speech. So, as a Muslim, we should recite Qur'an daily with better
understanding and proper recitation so that we can earn Allah’s blessings in this life
and the hereafter.
This book includes the rules of Abu Ja'far narration. My target in writing this book is
to help the readers to learn the rules of Abu Ja'far in an easy and simple way; so the
rules in this book are written out in a simplified way away from lengthening. Hope the
readers understand Abu Ja'far rules clearly without any sort of confusion.
I ask Allah, the Exalted, to benefit all those who read this book and to spread the
knowledge they learn all over the world.
May Allah accepts our deeds and shower blessings on us and on our prophet,
Mohammed, and to his family and all of his companions, and all praises to Allah, the
Lord of the worlds.

Rules of Abu Ja'far Narration
El Thahaby says “my father said that Naaf'i said that when Abu Ja’far died while
washing him they found a page of Mushaf on his breast, so they say this is the light of
the Quran”. Ibn El Jazary says that Naaf'i said that Abu Ja’far was seen in a dream
after death in a good shape and Abu Ja’afar says “tell my friends and all who read
with this recitation that Allah forgives them and answers my prayers to them and tell
them to pray at night as much as they can”.
Those who took his way of reading and passed it on include Naaf'i bin Abee Na'eem,
and Sulaymaan bin Jammaaz and 'Eesaa bin Wardan. Abu Ja'far was the imam of
recitation for the people of Al-Medinah Al-Munawwarah. He died in the year 130
