Does a hamza with has a harakah on it, fatha kasra or dhummah, followed by another letter be given the same timing as any other voweled letter gets? |
|||
Question Yes, all letters with a vowel have the same time as others with a vowel -this doesn’t refer to the shaddah because then there are two letters, but the voweled part of the shaddah is the same as all other voweled letters. The vowel count of a letter does not decrease or increase due to the hamzah after it. The hamzah has the characteristic of shiddah- or imprisonment of the running of the sound, and this shows prominently when there is a sukoon on the hamzah, which will have a short amount of time, less than the letters which have rikhaawah or tawassit. Wa iyyaaakum. For more information, please see: http://www.abouttajweed.com/the-characteristics-of-the-arabic-letters/the-characteristics-of-the-letters-part-3-ash-shiddah-at-tawassit-ar-rakh.html
