Assalamu’alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh, Akh Muno.

My name is Raufa, and I’m a high school student from Indonesia. I first came across your work while looking through model rankings, and then explored the models and technical discussions you have shared.

Masha’Allah, I was really impressed by how many useful models you have built and shared openly for free. It is inspiring to see work of this quality made available for the benefit of the Ummah.

I’m currently building an early prototype of Raniin, a Qur’an TTS project that I hope can benefit the Ummah. I’m still learning along the way, especially about preparing the dataset, improving pronunciation quality, evaluating the model, and making it lightweight and low-latency.

For example, in verse 7 of Surah Al-Fatihah, if a user pronounces أَنْعَمْتَ as أَنَمْتَ without correctly producing the letter ع, the ASR would detect the pronunciation issue and send a signal to the LLM. Raniin would then generate the correct spoken reference, أَنْعَمْتَ, so the user can hear the difference and practise the correct makhraj.

Because a TTS model can generate references across a wide range of words, verses, pronunciation errors, and tajwid cases, I believe Raniin could also have broader potential as a supporting tool for tahsin learning. It would not replace a qualified teacher, but could help learners practise more consistently and receive relevant spoken examples during live sessions.

Since Raniin is meant to work together with Qur’anic ASR during live practice, I would really appreciate the opportunity to ask you a few technical questions and learn from your advice, especially about developing and evaluating the TTS model so that it can provide accurate references for makhraj and tajwid.

Would you be open to discussing it with me when you have time? If so, please let me know which platform would be most convenient for you—Discord, Telegram, WhatsApp, or another platform you prefer.

JazakAllahu khairan 💚
