INTRODUCTION
All praise is for Allah. We praise Him, seek His help and forgiveness. Weseek refuge in Allah from the evils of ourselves, and the evils of our actions.I bear witness that none has the right to be worshipped except Allah alone
and I bear witness that Muhammad is His servant andMessenger.
- In the book you have in hand, we will complete the needed lessons to
be able to read and write any Arabic text - We will start with a revision of the Step by Step book: Arabic letters,how to connect or separate them, the Arabic marks and the comparisonbetween short and long vowels.- Few new important lessons are added to make you able to readwords together are added.- It is important to know that this is a book of reading and writingpractice book, not a book to learn the language, so you might find fewwords that do not have meaning in Arabic but we are only using them forpractice.- We will keep transliteration for most of the words, as probably it willbe a self-studying book, but always try to read the words without thetransliteration first then check if it is correct.- A question that might come to your mind when doing these lessons
is:
Why does the same word appears with different marks on the
last letter?
The ending of an Arabic word changes after its position (role of theword in the sentence e.g. subject, object etc ). However, the wordstill means the same.The reason of these changes will be explained later in the Qur'aanicArabic lessons
Hope you find these notes useful. May Allaah keep you straight on hispath, and teach you what will be beneficial for you, give you success in thislife and in the hereafter.

LETTER HAMZAHLETTER HAMZAHLETTER HAMZAHLETTER HAMZAH
The Hamzah is represented by a sign. This sign is sometimes written overor under certain letters called seats, or else aloof.
)or) () ((The seats can be:The seat is not pronounced, but is only an orthographic convention in thespelling of words with Hamzah.
There is a cardinal rule in the reading of Hamzah:
The writing of Hamzah:
1- Aloof ( ) not connected from right or from left.
2- With a carrier, in which case it becomes like a diacritic:
a- Above and under an Alif ( ) (This is how it appears at the beginningof a word)
b. Above a waaw )(c. Above a dotless yaa' )( The rules of writing The Hamzah will be studied later
Important comment:Note that the Alif and Hamzah are two different letters. The letter Alif is
a long vowel, always written free from any type of Harakah, and it nevercomes at the beginning of a word. But Hamzah is a consonant thatcomes anywhere in the word with a Harakah.(Step by step book page 61)
But because the Hamzah is mostly using Alif as a seat, people call the
Hamzah on the top of Alif ( ) : "Alif" also.
This might cause lot of confusion to the beginners but soon you will get
used to it.
In our lessons, we will always follow the correct way of differentiatingbetween them as they are not the same.
If there is a seat, ignore it.

(long vowel)yahyah and Alif Maddih-Fat
If the letter Alif( ) comes after a letter with Fat-hah (Alif is alwayspreceded by Fat-hah), then this Alif will be pronounced like double Fat-hah as (a) in dad. We call it Alif Madiyyah.
-Alif Maddiyyah is the long form of Fat-hah
An Arabic word cannot start with Alif Maddiyah because Madd is likeSukoon.

The shortened Alif
Sometimes long vowel ( ) at the end of the word is written in the
shape of Yaa' without dots. You still pronounce it as an Alif( ) (aa) not

How to pause on Arabic words
- An Arabic word never starts with Sukoon.- If you pause on any word, you have to keep a Sukoon on the last letterof the word e.g. the last letter must be 'still' (in reading) even if there is adifferent mark on it (in writing).

Shaddah can be with the Fat-hah or the Kasrah ortheDammah Help Shaddah is repeating the letter twice without moving
the tongue: once with a sukoon and once with a vowel

Example: when you say: what time is it?
On the first 't' there is a Sukoon and on the second there is a Fat-hah.
2-Shaddah with KasrahExample: when you say: Do you like hot tea?
On the first 't' there is a Sukoon and on the second there is a Kasrah.
3-Shaddah with DammahExample: when you say: I like it too!On the first 't' there is a Sukoon and on the second there is a Dammah.

The connecting Hamzah
If the Alifis not carrying the sign of Hamzah, then it must be a long vowel
EXCEPT when it occurs first letter in the word.
In that case, the Alif is a Hamzah (consonant), but it is a special type ofHamzah that is pronounced only when it is the first sound coming outof the mouth (i.e. when you begin speaking by pronouncing that Hamzah).
This Hamzah is called 'Hamzat-ul-Wasl' or the 'connecting
Hamzah'
- It comes only at the beginning of the word.- It looks like long vowel Alif, but you already know that this last cannot beat the beginning of a word, as it is a sukoon.
- In the Quraan it has a symbol like small on the top. )( ,but in standardArabicbooks it is free of any sign.
- This Hamzah is pronounced only at the beginning of the speech, i.e. whenno other speech sound has been pronounced immediately before it;Otherwise, it is silent.
- If we start with the word we say: Allaah. (we hear the sound ofBut if we start with a word before it Ex.
We say: Jazaka-llaah
(We dont pronounce A of the word Allaah,
we directly go from the Kaafof Jazaaka to the letter Laam of the word(Allaah). The Hamzah is omitted)

The letter Laam in "Al at-Ta3reef" can be read in one of two waysdepending on the letter following it:- Pronouncing that Laam clearly.- Omitting that Laam by inserting it in the following letter.
