both the accuracy and fluency.

QURAN LEVEL 1-4 LEVEL 2.2 www.madressa.net


At this stage – on this page – the child should be able to read
the following lines with the sound of the letters – not the names –
as we are preparing them for vowel sounds.

QURAN LEVEL 1-4 LEVEL 2.3 www.madressa.net

QURAN LEVEL 1-4 LEVEL 2.4 www.madressa.net


HARAKA

There are 3 short vowels in Arabic: they are called “Haraka”


They are Fathah ( UádåXá¶) __á__, Kasra (Táoåtá¾)__ã__ & dhamma (UéÇá¢)__â___
Introduce the Kasra as being a small diagonal stroke below the letter
Kasra is a short vowel and must be pronounced as “i” as the sound “i” in the words it,
bit, sit, fit..... and not prolonged as the “ee” in eel, feel, feet.....

It might be helpful to tell the student to have a smiling


Face whilst reading the Kasra sound

Introduce the Dhamma as a small comma above the letter

Again it is a short vowel whose sound is “u” as in full, pull and not elongated as in fool,
pool...

It might be helpful to tell the student to have a round mouth


Whilst reading the Dhamma sound

Introduce the Fathah as a small slanting stroke above the letter

Again it is a short vowel whose sound is “a” as in Anwer, Asghar, Akber.... and not
elongated as in Answer, Advark, Ask...

It might be helpful to tell the student that the Fathah sign on a letter is equal to the
sound of the letter.

QUR’AN LEVEL 1-4 LEVEL 3.1 www.madressa.net


SUKOON

The “Sukoon” is a semi circle or a small circle over a letter. It means silent and it
shows that the letter has no vowel and only the sound of the letter should be
pronounced.

To explain the point further, use the names of students in the class or words of the
language with which the student is familiar.

E.g. Farhat, Anwer, Asghar

E.g. åYácåoᶠånáÒåÊáB åoá³å{áB


Instil in the student that in Arabic, a word can never begin with a letter bearing
Sukoon. The Sukoon can only be read if the previous letter has a haraka – a Fathah,
Kasra or Dhamma on it.

LONGER VOWEL SOUNDS

The letter “Alif” strengthens the vowel “a”

E.g.

áP = Ba (short) CáQ = Baa (long)

The letter “Yaa” lengthens the vowel “i”

E.g.

ãP = Bi (short) åØãQ = Biy (long) sounded bee as in beef

The letter “Waw” lengthens the vowel “u”

E.g.

âP = Bu (short) åÒâQ = Buw (long) pronounced as “boo” in the English word

“boot”. This may be transliterated as “Buu”

QURAN LEVEL 1-4 LEVEL 3.5 www.madressa.net


1

QURAN LEVEL 1-4 LEVEL 3.6 www.madressa.net


TANWEEN:

An extra vowel (double vowels) is called Tanween which means the addition of the

sound of É
Fathah with Tanween makes an “un” sound as in bun, sun, fun

åÌᶠ= Cæ¶ åÌás = Cæs åÌáQ = CæQ

Kasran with Tanween makes an “in” sound as in bin, sin, fin

åÌ㶠= èμ åÌãs = èr åÌãQ = èP

Dhamma with Tanween makes an “un” sound but as in Salaamun, Muntazir, Khairun

åÌⶠ= çμ åÌâs = çr åÌâQ = çP

QURAN LEVEL 1-4 LEVEL 3.7 www.madressa.net


1

QURAN LEVEL 1-4 LEVEL 3.8 www.madressa.net


THE HAMZAH ( A )

The Hamzah ( A ) above an “Alif” or “waw” with a Sukoon on it cuts short the vowel

“a” and “u” respectively, producing a hiccup sound.

This Hamzah is known as “Hamzatul Qat” or the “cutting Hamzah”

çÉGáå w = sha’nun (the Alif does not lengthen the vowel “a” in this case)

âÌãÆKâå Ö = yu’minu (the waw does not lengthen the vowel “u” in this case)

Sometimes the Hamzah is not written above the Alif, only the Sukoon is written, but
the hiccup sound is still produced.

E.g.

åoâÆåBáÑ = wa’mur

ãVåCáÊ = na’ti

READING PRATICE ON THE NEXT PAGE IS MEANT TO COMBINE RULES AND


SOUNDS COVERED ON PREVIOUS PAGES.

REPEAT THIS PAGE AS MANY TIMES AS NECESSARY TO IMPROVE BOTH


ACCURACY AND SPEED

QURAN LEVEL 1-4 LEVEL 3.9 www.madressa.net


1

QURAN LEVEL 1-4 LEVEL 3.10 www.madressa.net


LONG VOWELS

A vertical stroke above a letter is a long vowel “a”. It equals about 2 a’s. E.g.

áÐðÂãB = ilaa ha or
ðP = CáQ = B + áP
SðXã¾
ç = kitaabun
ðμ = Cᶠ= B + áμ
ð½ = Cá¾ = B + á½
A vertical stroke below a letter is a long vowel “i”. It equals about 2 i’s.

This is similar to the long “ee” sound. E.g.

Íã = Hi (short)
P! = åØãQ = åÕ + ãP
Í! = Hii (pronounced hee as in heel) μ! = åØ㶠= åÕ + ãμ
½! = åØã¾ = åÕ + ã½
ã¸ðÂB! = Iilaafi (pronounced ee laa fi)

An inverted hook above a letter is a long vowel “u” It equals about 2 u’s.

This is similar to a long “oo” sound.

E.g.

âÍ = Hu (short) P" = åÒâQ = åÑ + âP


−" = åÒâ® = åÑ + â−
Í" = Huu (pronounced hoo as in hoot)
z" = åÒâ{ = Ñå + âz
Í"áoáÖ = ya ra huu (pronounced ya ra hoo)

QURAN LEVEL 1-4 LEVEL 3.11 www.madressa.net


1

QURAN LEVEL 1-4 LEVEL 3.12 www.madressa.net


MADDAH

A long stroke or curve above a letter is called a Maddah. The word Maddah in Arabic
means to lengthen or stretch.

A Light Maddah therefore indicates that the vowel it affects must be lengthened to at
least about 4 times its normal length: E.g.

IT MUST BE INSTILLED IN THE CHILD THAT A DARK MADDAH INDICATES THAT THE VOWEL IT
AFFECTS MUST BE LENGTHENED TO AT LEAST ABOUT 5-6 TIMES ITS NORMAL LENGTH

ár = Sa (short) ãr= Si (short) âr= Su (short)

Cás= Saa (long) åØãs= Siy (long) åÒâs= Suw (long)


pronounced as “see” pronounced as “soo”

Eás= Saaaa (very long) åØãs= Siiii (very long) åÒâs= Suuuu (very long)

Eás= Saaaaaa åØãs= Siiiiii åÒâs= Suuuuuu

SILENT LETTERS

When the letters Õ Ñ B appear without any sign on them (like Fathah _á__,
Kasrah _ã__, Dhamma _â__, or Sukoon _å__) and are followed by a letter with
a sukoon _å__ or tashdeed _ä__they are called silent letters.
Although they are written, they are NOT pronounced.

This part involves more practice with Maddah which is followed by a letter with a
Shaddah.

E.g. ìÁEᢠis pronuounced as dh-a-a-a-a-allan.

MUQATTA’AAT – THE SINGLE LETTERS

There are certain chapters in the Qur’an which begin with the Muqattat’aat or “The
Single Letters”. These letters are pronounced separately as they are pronounced
while reading the Alphabet.

ñ äÇÂñ B – Alif La-a-a-am Me-e-e-em

The Maddah above the letters produces the prolonged sounds.

THE NUN AL QUTNI:

To link words in pronunciation, a small “nun” is sometimes written under an Alif ( BãÉ ).

This is called “nun al qutni”. This “nun” is pronounced.

ÕméÂBãÉâoåÖkáº
å - will be read: qa dii ru nil la dhii

QURAN LEVEL 1-4 LEVEL 4.11 www.madressa.net


MUQATTA’AAT – THE SINGLE LETTERS

NUN AL QUTNI

QURAN LEVEL 1-4 LEVEL 4.12 www.madressa.net


A NUN WITH SUKOON FOLLOWED BY THE LETTER “BAA”:
If there is a “nun” with a sukoon (or a nunated letter), followed by the letter “baa”, the
“nun” in reading will be changed into a “meem” and will be pronounced with a nasal
sound. To indicate this a small “meem” is written between the “nun” and the “baa”

ãkåˉáQÅ åÌãÆ – will be read as: mim ba’di

áAEá×ãRåÊÅ áB – will be read as: am bi yaa’a

STOPS:
From the Qur’an point out the punctuation marks which are called waqf (pl. Wuqoof).
The most common Wuqoof are:
End of Aya – Stop O

Must Stop Å

Can stop or continue ^

Better to stop ¦

Must not stop Ù


Apart from learning the stops it is important to know how to stop or pause at a waqf.
If the letter before the waqf is Fathah, kasra, dhamma, kasra tanween or dhamma
tanween then the sign will be replaced with a sukoon and not read.

The Shia Ithna'asheri Madressa is the Madressa of the KSIMC of North London, UK.

The Shia Ithna’asheri Madressa was founded in 1985 and caters for the religious foundation of
our children. The classes are held at the Husseini Islamic Centre every Sunday between
10.00am – 1.30pm, where the last 30 minutes are allocated to Salaat-ul-Jamaat for Teachers,
Students & Parents.

SI Madressa has 4 main departments: (1) Akhlaq – Morals & Ethics (2) Fiqh – Islamic Rules &
Regulations (3) Tareekh – Islamic History (4) Qur’an – i) Appreciation and Understanding of
the Holy Quran ii) Recitation.

We also cater for students with learning difficulties and children with disabilities and special
needs. These activities fall under the Learning Support and Special Needs departments. If you
know a child who can benefit from such classes, please email us on assist@madressa.net.

Furthermore, the older students are accommodated for with classes that prepare them for the
outside world, equip them with qualities of leadership, and train them as future teachers.

The students are provided with an extensive and a comprehensive syllabus, which has also
been adopted by many other Madaris and organisations across the globe. Furthermore, the SI
Madressa has branched out onto the Internet, giving students worldwide free access to the
teaching material and manuals.
