Question Assalamualikum Answer Wa alaikum assalaam wa rahamatu Allahi wa barakatuh. It seems that
you are referring to lengthening at the end of a word where there is a medd
letter followed by one voweled letter, and we are stopping on this word.
In this case the last letter acquires a temporary or incidental sukoon,
and we lengthen the medd letter 2, 4, or 6 vowel counts.
This is called
.
The timing though is not measured in seconds, but in vowel counts.
The timing for each individual vowel count should be equal to the other
individual vowel counts, and lengthenings then based on this are equal to two,
four, or six vowel counts. An example
would be in the second and third aayaat of surah Al-Faatihah:
The following three different sound links demonstrate the three different allowed lengthenings of this medd. The reciters are all known reciters, but not the shuyookh requested. Please note the slow reading for the every vowel in the four vowel count lengthening. One may think that it is six vowel counts, but when you hear his whole recitation and feel the vowel counts, it is actually four vowel counts that he lengthens the medd. Wa iyyaakum. Wa assalaam alaikum wa rahmatu Allah. |
