Noorani Qaida Lesson 4 -Harakat – Vowels

Harakat / Vowels

Noorani Qaida lesson 4: noorani qaida takhti number 4: Before starting this lesson, you should have basic knowledge about vowels.

This lesson covers the Arabic vowels. As just like in the English language there are vowels (a, e, i, o, u) to make different sounds. In the Arabic language, it also has some vowels, but they are only three.

Remembered that we have touched these letters in the first lesson Noorani Qaida lesson 1. In Arabic language, this lesson is named as حركه” ” for one vowel and حرکات”” for vowels.

In Tajweed, Ulamaa defines the word حركه with the “a finger movement”. For example, opening OR closing of a finger at a normal pace. It is a measurement of sound or duration of a sound.

Join thousands of Muslim Families who love learning Noorani Qaida & Quran reading from the comfort of their Homes.

We have three حرکات (vowels) in Arabic language:

1. Fathah فتحة

Consider فتحة a line that goes on the top of any letter.

Example: بَ. Here you see the letter ب having a small line on it. This is called فتحة.

2. Kasrah كسرة

Consider it line that goes below or under any letter.

Example: بِ. here you see the letter ب having a small line below it. This is called كسرة.

3. dhammah ضمّة

Consider it like a small و written above any letter.

Example: بُ. here you see that a small و appears on the top of the letter ب. this is called ضمّة.

Repeat above three vowels (Fathah, Kasrah and dhammah) until you master these words because these three words will be used throughout the series of lessons.

  • Fathah فتحة makes a sound of AA (read it by opening your mouth).
  • Kasrah كسرة makes a sound of EE.
  • Dhammah ضمّة makes a sound of UU.

Note: These three sounds should be for a short duration of time as earlier it is said that Harakah is a movement.

Now we will put them in practice by starting our Noorani Qaida lesson 3. In this lesson, you will see that each letter is repeated three times with respect to the vowels we just have studied. If you have practiced the first lesson (where we studied the home of every letter) perfectly then this lesson will be very easy for you.
