Lesson summary
The pronoun ه is lengthened when the letters before and after it both have a vowel.
How do I read it?
Look at the letters before and after ه: if both have a vowel, lengthen it; if one has no vowel, do not.
Letters: The pronoun ـهُ / ـهِ
Remember: Vowel + ه + vowel = lengthen.
Common mistake: Lengthening every ه.
- A ه that belongs to the root of the word is not a pronoun and is not lengthened.
- If you stop on the pronoun, it is not lengthened.
