Question Assalaamu alaikum.
When pronouncing the letter
what would you recommend to someone who has problems making
the sound of the
with a sukoon
"run"; sometimes it's fine and sometimes it sort of sticks.
Would you have any idea why that would be? Your help is greatly
appreciated. Thank you and may Allah reward you. Answer Wa alaikum assalaam wa
rahmatu Allahi wa barakatuh. Subhana Allah, there are
many problems in tajweed that can be solved through the study of the mechanism
of formation of letters lessons, it is truly a foundation for proper
recitation. May Allah greatly
reward the scholar responsible for spreading this knowledge and making clear
the mechanism of formation of the letters in the recitation of the Glorious
Qur’an. If we review the lessons
on the mechanism for formation of letters, we see that saakin letters (outside
of the medd letters) are formed by collision (
) of the two parts of articulation
for the specific letter being pronounced.
Letters with vowels (outside of the qalqalah letters) are formed by a
strong separation (
) of the two parts of
articulation for the specific letter. If
the collision of a saakin letter is weak, or more like a swipe causing a
meeting of the two points that cause the particular sound, the
letter becomes weak or not clearly saakin; likewise if the separation is not
strong and immediate of the two parts that are used for articulation of the
letter, the sound is not clear, or if a slow separation takes place, the sound
will be in between saakin and voweled. In the case at hand, it
seems like the student of the Qur’an is not making a firm separation of the
two parts of articulation (the upper part of the throat), so what happens is
the letter is part saakin and part voweled, and the “run” happens. The student is hanging on to the articulation point, so a run
is heard instead of a sharp sound of separation.
This is assuming that the question is about a voweled
.
A
saakinah does have a time
period of running of the sound, since it has the characteristic of
