Every letter has a place it comes from: lips, tongue, or throat. Mastering these unlocks clear, beautiful recitation.
Both lips meet lightly.
Back of the tongue with soft palate.
Tip touches gums lightly.
Middle throat—airy & soft.
Letters carry qualities like **heavy/light** and **strength/softness**. Hearing these differences makes recitation sound correct.
Full mouth sound—keep it rounded.
Thin, light hiss—no heaviness.
A gentle “bounce” when at rest.
Nasal hum for 2 counts.
When Noon (نْ) or Tanween (ـــً/ـــٍ/ـــٌ) appears, its sound may be **clear, hidden, merged, or changed**.
Pronounced clearly before throat letters (ء ه ع ح غ خ).
Merge Noon/Tanween into the next letter (with/without ghunnah).
Noon/Tanween becomes hidden **م** with ghunnah before **ب**.
Sound is hidden with nasalization before 15 letters.
We stretch sounds for 2, 4, or 6 counts depending on the rule.
Natural length after Madd letters (ا و ي).
