الْعَالَمِينَ
Recording in preparation
Lesson summary
When you stop on the last letter after a madd letter, that letter loses its vowel and the sound is lengthened.
How do I read it?
Stop at the end of the word, read the last letter without a vowel and lengthen the madd sound.
Letters: Madd letter + a last letter that loses its vowel when you stop
Length: 3 elif (a relative length in Tedvîr recitation, not seconds)
Common mistake: Still reading the last vowel when you stop.
- If you go on without stopping, there is no madd ‘arid; only the normal length remains.
