Difficulty with Tajweed

Q: About 2 weeks back I asked about reading with tajweed. It is not that I do not know how to read with tajweed, it is just that I have difficulty pronouncing the second haa in certain instances. If I am not able to pronounce it correctly will my salaah and Quraan recitation be invalid? Also is Aarif Soobrathie's recitations a good guide to follow for proper tajweed?

A: In the case you mentioned your salah will be valid. As long as you try your best, your recitation will be accepted by Allah. We have not heard Soobrathie’s recitation so we cannot comment. However, there are other Qaaris whom you could listen to in order to learn better tajweed, for example, Qaari Ziyaad Patel locally, and then the famous Arab Qaaris such as Shaikh Husri, Shaikh Abdul-Basit, the famous Imams Sudais and Shuraim, and Shaikh Abubakr Shaatri.
