[Corpora-List] "Tajweed" in English dictionaries and corpora

[Otto Lassen]

Excuse, I wrote “figh” – wrong for “fiqh” which is in Oxford English Dictionary.
Eric Atwell has found that the word Tajweed has been “left out” of most British English
dictionaries and BNC. But it is in encyclopædia Britannica spelt “tajwid”. It seems to me that his 
problem is either the distinction between “english dictionary” and “english encyclopedia”
or that too few in Britain know and use the word “tajweed” and similar words.

Otto Lassen

I'm rather drawn to the Urban Dictionary definitions of that one.
