Fifty-Four Words with Tashdeed
Page 41 is the main Tashdeed exercise. The words fall into a few groups; the table shows how to read them and where they occur in the Quran:
| Group | Words from this page |
|---|---|
| Silent Lam, doubled letter | اَلرَّحْمٰنُ ar-raḥ-maa-nu (Surah ar-Rahman 55:1) وَالشَّمْسِ wash-sham-si (Surah ash-Shams 91:1) وَالضُّحٰى waḍ-ḍu-ḥaa (Surah ad-Duha 93:1) وَالطُّوْرِ waṭ-ṭoo-ri (Surah at-Tur 52:1) وَالنَّجْمِ wan-naj-mi (Surah an-Najm 53:1) وَالنّٰشِطٰتِ wan-naa-shi-ṭaa-ti (Surah an-Nazi‘at 79:2) اَلطَّلَاقُ aṭ-ṭa-laa-qu (Surah al-Baqarah 2:229) وَالظَّاهِرُ waẓ-ẓaa-hi-ru (Surah al-Hadid 57:3) |
| Tashdeed inside the word | نُزِّلَ nuz-zi-la (Surah Muhammad 47:2) فَسَنُيَسِّرُهٗ fa-sa-nu-yas-si-ru-hoo (Surah al-Layl 92:7) كُوِّرَتْ kuw-wi-rat (Surah at-Takwir 81:1) سُيِّرَتْ suy-yi-rat (Surah at-Takwir 81:3) سُعِّرَتْ su‘-‘i-rat (Surah at-Takwir 81:12) رَكَّبَكَ rak-ka-ba-ka (Surah al-Infitar 82:8) حُقَّتْ ḥuq-qat (Surah al-Inshiqaq 84:2) مُطَهَّرَةً mu-ṭah-ha-ra-tan (Surah al-Bayyinah 98:2) عِلِّيُّوْنَ ‘il-liy-yoo-na (Surah al-Mutaffifin 83:19) |
| Ghunnah | مِمَّا mim-maa فَاُمُّهٗ fa-um-mu-hoo (Surah al-Qari‘ah 101:9) جَنّٰتٍ jan-naa-tin اِنَّ الظَّنَّ in-naẓ-ẓan-na (Surah Yunus 10:36) عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ‘a-lan-na-biy-yi (Surah al-Ahzab 33:56) |
| Two Tashdeeds | يَذَّكَّرُ yadh-dhak-ka-ru (Surah ‘Abasa 80:4) يَزَّكّٰى yaz-zak-kaa (Surah ‘Abasa 80:3) لِيَدَّبَّرُوْا li-yad-dab-ba-roo (Surah Sad 38:29) يَسَّمَّعُوْنَ yas-sam-ma-‘oo-na (Surah as-Saffat 37:8) مُزَّمِّلُ muz-zam-mi-lu (Surah al-Muzzammil 73:1) مُدَّثِّرُ mud-dath-thi-ru (Surah al-Muddaththir 74:1) مَدَّ الظِّلَّ mad-daẓ-ẓil-la (Surah al-Furqan 25:45) شَرِّ النَّفّٰثٰتِ shar-rin-naf-faa-thaa-ti (Surah al-Falaq 113:4) |
The Last Two Rows: a Saakin Letter That Disappears
The last two rows practise the final rule of the lesson: a moving letter, then a Saakin letter, then a Mushaddad letter. In most of these the Saakin letter is not read and the moving letter joins straight onto the doubled one. In the second-last row, اَحَطْتُّ and بَسَطْتَّ are the “not always” cases: the Ṭa is not fully dropped, and its heavy quality stays before the Ta.
| Example | Read | Where it occurs |
|---|---|---|
| يُحِبُّ التَّوَّابِيْنَ | yu-ḥib-but-taw-waa-bee-na | Surah al-Baqarah 2:222 |
| رَبُّ السَّمٰوٰتِ | rab-bus-sa-maa-waa-ti | Surah as-Saffat 37:5 |
| اَحَطْتُّ | a-ḥaṭ-tu (the Ṭa keeps its heaviness) | Surah an-Naml 27:22 |
| بَسَطْتَّ | ba-saṭ-ta (the Ṭa keeps its heaviness) | Surah al-Ma’idah 5:28 |
| نَخْلُقْكُّمْ | nakh-luk-kum | Surah al-Mursalat 77:20 |
| قَدْ تَّبَيَّنَ | qat-ta-bay-ya-na | Surah al-Baqarah 2:256 |
| عَبَدْتُّمْ | ‘a-bat-tum | Surah al-Kafirun 109:4 |
| اِذْ ظَّلَمُوْا | iẓ-ẓa-la-moo | Surah an-Nisa 4:64 |
| قَدْ دَّخَلُوْا | qad-da-kha-loo | Surah al-Ma’idah 5:61 |
| اِذْ ذَّهَبَ | idh-dha-ha-ba | Surah al-Anbiya 21:87 |
Mistakes to Watch For
- Reading the dropped letter. قَدْ تَّبَيَّنَ is “qat-tabayyana”, not “qad-tabayyana”.
- One Tashdeed in a two-Tashdeed word. يَذَّكَّرُ doubles both the Dhal and the Kaf.
- Reading the silent Lam. وَالشَّمْسِ is “wash-shamsi”.
A Five-Minute Practice Plan
- Minute 1: the silent-Lam group: openings of well-known surahs.
- Minute 2: the Surah at-Takwir words: كُوِّرَتْ then سُيِّرَتْ then سُعِّرَتْ.
- Minute 3: the two-Tashdeed words.
- Minute 4: the last two rows, dropping the Saakin letter each time.
- Minute 5: read the Check Yourself line below.
