This study aims to determine how the Ahkaam al-Tajweed, a set of rules applied during the memorization of the Quran is a science towards speech and voice regulation. Adherence to these rules while memorizing the Quran improves articulation and regulates the voice. Physical observations were done on certain students and transformations were seen. The results indicate that students who previously faced speech and articulation problems showed transformation after beginning Quran memorization while adhering to Tajweed rules. Voice and speech disorders can be classified into three: functional, neurological, and organic. This study primarily focuses on the issues managed solely by the Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP), particularly those treated through functional therapy approaches. There are various approaches to treating functional disorders, such as learning to reduce the rate of speech, opening the mouth more than usual, or vocal chanting. These practices are inherently integrated into the Ahkam al-Tajweed rules, which are obligatory during the recitation and memorization of the Quran. However, certain organic and neurological speech and voice disorders may require management by professionals other than an SLP, such as an ENT physician, who may address the issue through surgical intervention.
