Madni Qaida in English Page 26 – Lesson 8: Khari Harakaat Practice Chart
Welcome to Madni Qaida in English Page 26 at Learning Quraan. This page is a practice chart of letters carrying standing Zabar, standing Zayr and inverted Paysh, grouped so similar-sounding letters sit side by side.
This page is part of Lesson 8: Khari Harakaat (Vertical Vowels). See every page on the Madni Qaida in English index, or learn with a teacher in our online Quran courses.
What is on Madni Qaida in English Page 26?
- ت/ط, ذ/ز, ظ/ض and ث/س with vertical vowels.
- ص/ك and ق/ه compared with vertical vowels.
- Throat letters ح, ع, غ, خ and the lip letters ب, م.
How to Practise This Page
- Treat the standing Zabar, standing Zayr and inverted Paysh exactly like Maddah: two counts.
- Keep contrasting the similar-sounding letters as you did in Lesson 4.
- Look at the vowel mark first, then say the letter with the right length.
Every Box on Page 26
Lesson 8 now runs through the alphabet with the three Khari Harakaat. The letters come in the same sound-alike pairs as Lessons 4 and 5, so each row asks the child to keep two similar sounds apart while stretching both. Every box is long: two counts.
| Letter | Khara Zabar | Khari Zer | Ulta Pesh |
|---|---|---|---|
| ت Ta | تٰ taa | تٖ tee | تٗ too |
| ط Ṭa (heavy) | طٰ ṭaa | طٖ ṭee | طٗ ṭoo |
| ز Za | زٰ zaa | زٖ zee | زٗ zoo |
| ذ Dhal | ذٰ dhaa | ذٖ dhee | ذٗ dhoo |
| ظ Ẓa (heavy) | ظٰ ẓaa | ظٖ ẓee | ظٗ ẓoo |
| ض Ḍad (heavy) | ضٰ ḍaa | ضٖ ḍee | ضٗ ḍoo |
| ث Tha | ثٰ thaa | ثٖ thee | ثٗ thoo |
| س Seen | سٰ saa | سٖ see | سٗ soo |
| ص Ṣad (heavy) | صٰ ṣaa | صٖ ṣee | صٗ ṣoo |
| ك Kaf | كٰ kaa | كٖ kee | كٗ koo |
| ق Qaf (heavy) | قٰ qaa | قٖ qee | قٗ qoo |
| ه Ha | هٰ haa | هٖ hee | هٗ hoo |
| ح Ḥa | حٰ ḥaa | حٖ ḥee | حٗ ḥoo |
| ا ء Alif / Hamzah | اٰ-ءٰ aa | اٖ-ءٖ ee | اٗ-ءٗ oo |
| ع Ain | عٰ ‘aa | عٖ ‘ee | عٗ ‘oo |
| د Dal | دٰ daa | دٖ dee | دٗ doo |
| خ Kha (heavy) | خٰ khaa | خٖ khee | خٗ khoo |
| غ Ghayn (heavy) | غٰ ghaa | غٖ ghee | غٗ ghoo |
| ب Ba | بٰ baa | بٖ bee | بٗ boo |
| م Meem | مٰ maa | مٖ mee | مٗ moo |
The Alif and Hamzah Boxes
In row 7 three boxes show an Alif and a Hamzah side by side, joined by a red dash: اٰ-ءٰ. This is a reminder from Lesson 3: an Alif that carries a mark is read as a Hamzah. Both halves of the box make the same sound, “aa”, “ee” and “oo”. Compare them with the Ain boxes in the next row, عٰ, which must come from the middle of the throat.
Heavy Letters, Long Vowels
The blue letters (ط ظ ض ص ق خ غ) stay heavy through the whole stretch: طٰ is a full “ṭaa”, and even صٖ keeps its heavy sound. A light letter must not turn heavy because it is stretched: سٰ is a thin “saa”.
Mistakes to Watch For
- Stretching some boxes and not others. Every box on this page is two counts.
- Merging pairs at length. ذٰ, زٰ and ظٰ drift together when stretched. Hold each letter’s own place.
- Ḥa and Ha. حٰ from the middle of the throat, هٰ from the deepest part.
A Five-Minute Practice Plan
- Minute 1: read the Khara Zabar column only, top to bottom.
- Minute 2: the Khari Zer column, then the Ulta Pesh column.
- Minute 3: pairs: تٰ then طٰ; سٰ then صٰ; كٰ then قٰ.
- Minute 4: throat letters: اٰ then عٰ then حٰ then هٰ then خٰ then غٰ.
- Minute 5: read the Check Yourself line below.
