Madni Qaida in English Page 49 – Lesson 17: Madd Practice Chart

Welcome to Madni Qaida in English Page 49 at Learning Quraan. Page 49 completes the Madd types with Madd Leen-‘Aarid and gives a large practice chart of Quranic words with Madd.

This page is part of Lesson 17: Maddaat (Types of Madd). 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 49?

  • Madd ‘Aarid and Leen-‘Aarid can be stretched 2, 4 or 6 counts.
  • How to spell Madd words such as جاء and ضالًا.
  • Words such as اولئك, ولا الضالين and رب العلمين.

How to Practise This Page

  • First find the cause of the Madd: a Hamzah or a Sukoon after the Maddah letter.
  • Stretch Muttasil and Munfasil 4 to 5 counts, Lazim and Leen-Lazim 6 counts.
  • For Madd ‘Aarid and Leen-‘Aarid (at a pause), choose 2, 4 or 6 counts and stay consistent.

The Sixth Madd and How to Spell Them

The page completes the list with Madd Leen ‘Aarid: a Letter of Leen followed by a temporary Sukoon when you stop, as in شَفَتَيْنِ. For Madd ‘Aarid and Madd Leen ‘Aarid the page gives a stretch of up to 3 Alif (6 Harakaat). The book then shows how to spell words with a long Madd, naming each letter and its mark as in earlier lessons.

Every Example on Page 49

The examples run in the order of the six types: Muttasil, Munfasil, Lazim, and finally ‘Aarid and Leen ‘Aarid in the last row, where the small circle marks the stop:

Points to Notice

  • Two Madds in one word. هٰٓؤُلَآءِ has a Munfasil-type Madd on the Ha and a Muttasil on the Lam; يَتَسَآءَلُوْنَ has a Muttasil and then, when you stop, an ‘Aarid.
  • Lazim is the longest. Every Madd Lazim word on this page needs the full six counts: وَلَا الضَّآلِّيْنَ at the end of Surah al-Fatihah is the best-known example.
  • The Fatihah connection. رَبِّ الْعٰلَمِيْنَ and وَلَا الضَّآلِّيْنَ both come from Surah al-Fatihah, so these rules are used in every Salah.

Mistakes to Watch For

  • Short Lazim. اَلْحَآقَّةُ must not sound like a natural two-count Madd.
  • Losing the Tashdeed after the Madd. In دَآبَّةٍ the stretch is followed by a doubled Ba.
  • Stretching Leen like Maddah when not stopping. خَوْفٍ only gets the long stretch when you stop on it.

A Five-Minute Practice Plan

  1. Minute 1: the Muttasil words (rows 1 and 2).
  2. Minute 2: the Munfasil words.
  3. Minute 3: the Lazim words, six counts each.
  4. Minute 4: the last row, stopping on each word.
  5. Minute 5: read the Check Yourself line below and name each Madd.
