What Questions 14 to 21 Revise
Page 63 continues the revision section with questions 14 to 21 on Lessons 9, 11. Each topic is explained below in our own words, with an example and a link back to the lesson. Use the page as a quiz: ask the question, let your child answer, then check.
The Letters of Leen
Waw Saakinah and Ya Saakinah become Letters of Leen when the letter before them has a Fathah: بَوْ بَیْ. They are said gently, with a glide, without stretching and without a sudden stop. Compare Maddah: بُوْ (Dammah before) stretches; بَوْ (Fathah before) glides. Back to Lesson 9 (page 27).
Qalqalah
Qalqalah means movement: the place where the letter is made moves slightly, so the sound bounces. The five letters are ق ط ب ج د, remembered as قُطْبُ جَدٍّ. The bounce is clearest when the letter is Saakin (اَقْ), and a Qalqalah letter with Tashdeed is said with emphasis (اَدَّ, Lesson 13). Back to Lesson 11 (page 31).
Hamzah Saakinah
A Hamzah with a Sukoon (أْ ءْ) is always said with a quick, clean stop in the throat, so it does not melt into the next letter: يُؤْمِنُوْنَ is “yu’-minoon”, not “yoominoon”. Back to Lesson 11 (page 31).
Question 21 on this page asks how a Hamzah Saakinah is said; its answer is on the next page.
