Noon and Meem with Shaddah

Islam > Quran > Tajweed > Noon and Meem with Shaddah

The rule of the noon and the meem with shaddah

The origin of the mushaddad letter is two letters: the first of them is saakinah and the second mutaharrik; the saakinah letter is melted (idghaam) into the mutaharrik letter so that they become a single letter, like the second one, with a shaddah.

The noon and the meem with shaddah can be medial or final, and can occur in a noun, a verb or a particle.

A model of examples

When the noon and the meem are found with a shaddah, it becomes obligatory to bring out the ghunnah in their pronunciation, and that is their rule; each of the two is called a mushaddad letter with ghunnah, or an aghann mushaddad letter.
