Madni Qaida in English Page 32 – Lesson 11: Sukoon Practice With Hamzah
Welcome to Madni Qaida in English Page 32 at Learning Quraan. This page drills Sukoon by pairing a Hamzah carrying each vowel with a Saakin letter, such as اَتْ, اِتْ, اُتْ.
This page is part of Lesson 11: Sukoon (Jazm) and Qalqalah. 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 32?
- Every letter practised as a Saakin after Hamzah.
- Heavy letters and Qalqalah letters in Saakin form.
- Clear, crisp endings without adding a vowel.
How to Practise This Page
- Join a Saakin letter to the moving letter before it.
- Stop the sound sharply on Hamzah Saakinah.
- Let the five Qalqalah letters (qutbu jad) bounce clearly when they are Saakin.
Every Box on Page 32
This is the Sukoon chart for Lesson 11. Each box starts with an Alif carrying a Fathah, Kasrah or Dammah (so it is read as a Hamzah), and ends with a Saakin letter. The two are read together in one sound: اَتْ is “at”, one syllable. The letters come in the same sound-alike pairs used since Lesson 4:
| Letter | After Fathah | After Kasrah | After Dammah |
|---|---|---|---|
| ت Ta | اَتْ at | اِتْ it | اُتْ ut |
| ط Ṭa (Qalqalah, heavy) | اَطْ aṭ | اِطْ iṭ | اُطْ uṭ |
| ز Za | اَزْ az | اِزْ iz | اُزْ uz |
| ذ Dhal | اَذْ adh | اِذْ idh | اُذْ udh |
| ظ Ẓa (heavy) | اَظْ aẓ | اِظْ iẓ | اُظْ uẓ |
| ض Ḍad (heavy) | اَضْ aḍ | اِضْ iḍ | اُضْ uḍ |
| ث Tha | اَثْ ath | اِثْ ith | اُثْ uth |
| س Seen | اَسْ as | اِسْ is | اُسْ us |
| ص Ṣad (heavy) | اَصْ aṣ | اِصْ iṣ | اُصْ uṣ |
| ك Kaf | اَكْ ak | اِكْ ik | اُكْ uk |
| ق Qaf (Qalqalah, heavy) | اَقْ aq | اِقْ iq | اُقْ uq |
| ه Ha | اَهْ ah | اِهْ ih | اُهْ uh |
| ح Ḥa | اَحْ aḥ | اِحْ iḥ | اُحْ uḥ |
| ء Hamzah (Hamzah Saakinah) | اَءْ a’ | اِءْ i’ | اُءْ u’ |
| ع Ain | اَعْ a‘ | اِعْ i‘ | اُعْ u‘ |
| د Dal (Qalqalah) | اَدْ ad | اِدْ id | اُدْ ud |
| خ Kha (heavy) | اَخْ akh | اِخْ ikh | اُخْ ukh |
| غ Ghayn (heavy) | اَغْ agh | اِغْ igh | اُغْ ugh |
| ب Ba (Qalqalah) | اَبْ ab | اِبْ ib | اُبْ ub |
| م Meem | اَمْ am | اِمْ im | اُمْ um |
The Colours on This Page
- Red: the Qalqalah letters. Four of the five appear here: ط, ق, د and ب (Jeem comes on the next page). Saakin, they must bounce clearly: اَطْ, اَقْ, اَدْ, اَبْ.
- Green: Hamzah Saakinah. اَءْ, اِءْ, اُءْ end with a clean stop in the throat.
- Blue: the heavy letters. اَصْ, اَضْ, اَظْ, اَخْ and اَغْ keep their full sound even with no vowel. Ṭa and Qaf are heavy too, and are shown in red because they also take Qalqalah.
Pairs That Test the Ear
A Sukoon makes similar letters harder to tell apart, because there is no vowel after them. Listen for these differences:
- اَتْ against اَطْ: light and flat, against heavy with a bounce.
- اَكْ against اَقْ: Kaf releases a little breath; Qaf bounces from deep in the mouth.
- اَعْ against اَءْ: Ain is pressed in the middle of the throat; Hamzah is a sudden stop.
- اَهْ against اَحْ: a soft breath against a sharper, squeezed one.
A Five-Minute Practice Plan
- Minute 1: read the “after Fathah” column from top to bottom.
- Minute 2: the red boxes only: اَطْ then اَقْ then اَدْ then اَبْ.
- Minute 3: the pairs listed above.
- Minute 4: the Hamzah row, with a clean stop each time.
- Minute 5: read the Check Yourself line below.
