مخارج الحروف Every Arabic letter has its own exit point in the throat, tongue, lips or nasal passage. Saying each letter from its correct place is the foundation of all other Tajweed rules. Draft · awaiting educator review صفات الحروف Beyond where a letter comes from, each letter has qualities — such as a whistle, a breathy release, or a spreading of air — that make it sound distinct from its neighbours. Draft · awaiting educator review النون الساكنة والتنوين A Noon with sukoon, or a tanween ending, follows one of four rules depending on the next letter. Before the six throat letters (ء ه ع ح غ خ) it is pronounced clearly — this is Izhar. Draft · awaiting educator review الميم الساكنة A Meem with sukoon is lightly hidden with ghunnah before ب (Ikhfa Shafawi), merged with ghunnah into a following م (Idgham Shafawi), and pronounced clearly before every other letter (Izhar Shafawi). Draft · awaiting educator review الغنة A nasal sound from the nose, held for about two counts, whenever Noon or Meem carries a shaddah (نّ مّ). Draft · awaiting educator review الإخفاء Before 15 letters (such as ت ث ج د ذ ز س ش ص ض ط ظ ف ق ك), a Noon Sakinah or tanween is hidden: the tongue does not fully touch for the Noon, and a ghunnah of about two counts is held. Draft · awaiting educator review الإدغام A Noon Sakinah or tanween merges into the next word's first letter. With ي ن م و it merges with ghunnah; with ل and ر it merges completely without ghunnah. Draft · awaiting educator review الإقلاب When a Noon Sakinah or tanween is followed by ب, the Noon sound turns into a hidden Meem with ghunnah. The mushaf marks it with a small م. Draft · awaiting educator review المد The madd letters (ا و ي) are stretched for a set number of counts. The natural madd is 2 counts; it becomes longer when followed by a hamza or a sukoon, as marked by the madd sign (~). Draft · awaiting educator review القلقلة The five letters ق ط ب ج د make a slight bounce when they have a sukoon. The bounce is lighter in the middle of a word and stronger when you stop on the letter. Draft · awaiting educator review التفخيم والترقيق Seven letters (خ ص ض غ ط ق ظ) are always heavy, filling the mouth. Most others are light. Ra and the Lam in the name of Allah change: heavy after fatha or damma, light after kasra. Draft · awaiting educator review الوقف والابتداء When stopping (waqf), the last letter usually takes a sukoon and a tanween is dropped. Small marks in the mushaf show where stopping is allowed or preferred, and where to resume (ibtida) so the meaning stays intact. Draft · awaiting educator review
