Question
Salam Alyikum: Answer Wa alaikum assalaam wa rahmatu Allahi wa barakatuh. The word is a special word in that different recitations have different rules. In this word there are two hamzaat (plural of hamzah), both with a fat-h at the beginning of the word. Some readers always have special rules when there are two hamzahs next to each other at the beginning of the word. In the reading of Hafs 'an 'Aasim, we do not read the second hamzah in this particular word clearly, and instead make (tas-heel, or easing) of this second hamzah, meaning we read it in between a hamzah and an alif. This is the reason for the black dot over the second hamzah, which is written on an alif; to let us know that this hamzah is not read normally. To listen to how this word is read by the way of Hafs, please click here. You are most welcome. |
