Tajweed Puzzle Game: Ikhfaa or Idgham? to Master Quran Rules

Make Quran Learning Fun with This Simple Matching Game!

At Roots Muslim School, we know that learning Tajweed — the beautiful art of Quranic pronunciation — can be a challenge for young learners. But what if Tajweed practice felt more like a game?

Introducing the “Match the Rule” Tajweed Puzzle Cards — a hands-on learning activity designed to help kids recognize and apply the rules of Ikhfaa and Idgham with ease and confidence.


🧩 What Are “Match the Rule” Puzzle Cards?

This engaging activity uses two types of cards:

  • Word Cards: Featuring common Quranic words in clear transliteration, such as Min Rabbihim or Man Zakaat.
  • Rule Cards: Labeled with either Ikhfaa or Idgham, in bold, vibrant colors.

🖐️ The Challenge: Players pick a word card and try to match it with the correct rule card.

💡 Why It Works:
Matching words to their Tajweed rule strengthens both recognition and memory, turning abstract rules into tangible, playful learning.


🎯 How to Play the “Match the Rule” Puzzle Cards

1️⃣ Shuffle both sets of cards — words and rules.
2️⃣ Spread them face-up on a table or floor.
3️⃣ Players take turns picking a word card and pairing it with the rule they believe applies.
4️⃣ Check the answer using the Tajweed key sheet or with a teacher/parent’s help.

Correct Match? Keep the pair.
Wrong Match? Return the card and try again next turn!
