In a previous lesson, we studied letters that are always Mufakham
(always said with Tafkheemتفخيم
). This lesson we will study the letters
which are sometimes Mufakhamمُفخم
, and sometimes muraqqaqمرقق-said with
Tarqeeqترقيق
1-The Tafkheem and Tarqeeq of Alif
The letter Alifthat is being spoken
about here is specifically the Alif Madeeyah. It’s rule is simple. Alif
is mufakham
when it follows a mufakham letter; and it is muraqaq
when it follows a muraqaq letter. This means, when it follows any
one of the 7 isti‘laa’ letters, alif
is mufakham,
when it follows the laam mufakhamah in lafhul
jalaalah, the alif is said with
tafkheem. Similarly, when it follows a laam or raa’mufhakhamah
(keep in mind that raa’ may be said with tafkheem
sometimes – next lesson insha Allah), the alif is also said with tafkeem
2- The ل of the Glorious name of Allah
sometimes has tafkheem and sometimes tarqeeq,
Depending on the pronounced vowel on the letter
preceding the لام.
The Alif that follows theلwill follow the ل in Tafkheemتفخيم or
Tarqeeq ترقيقbecause as stated above, the Alif follows the
letter preceding it. It is therefore necessary to make sure both the ل of the Glorious
name of Allah and the accompany Alif have both Tafkheem and Tarqeeq together,
according to the rules stated below.
The lam of the
Glorious name of Allah has Tafkheem in the following states:
If what precedes the name of Allah has a fat-ha, such as in:
وَعَلَى ﭐللَّهِ
If
what precedes the name of Allah has a Dhammah, such as in: رَسُولُ ﭐللَّه
CAUTION!
If the letter preceding the name 'Allah' ﷲis a Tarqeeqترقيق one, be careful not to
pronounce it Tafkheem تفخيم as this can easily be
done due to the letter laam being pronounced Tafkheem تفخيم
The Lam of the Name
of Allah Has Tarqeeq in the Following States:
If it was preceded by an original kasrah or presented kasrah even
if it is connected to it (the name of Allah) or separated from it. For example:
