Tajweed Q&A 7

Question

Assalamualaikum,

In December of 2003, you have posted my question on your website regarding the list of words that start with hamzatulwasl after waqf. You mentioned the possibility of preparing such a list. How is this effort coming along? When completed, will it be posted in Tidbit lessons section of your website? How would we know when it is done?

Answer

Wa alaikum assalaam wa rahmatu Allahi wa barakatuh,

Although it has taken much longer than we anticipated, the list is finished, insha’ Allah. We have put in PDF format for easy downloading and printing. Please click here to download and view the list. As stated in the document, if any brothers or sisters find a noun (excluding words starting with ) or verb at the beginning of an aayah or after a marked stop in the Medinah Printing Complex copy of the Qur’an not included in this list, please forward the word, the surah name, and aayah number to us so that we can add it to the list.

We will also add a link to the PDF in the tidbit archives in the lessons on Hamzah Al-Wasl section. We would like to remind the visitors that this is not a list of every word starting with hamzah al-wasl in the Glorious Qur’an, but instead a list of verbs and nouns (excluding the alif laam at-ta’reef) after a marked stop in the Medinah Printing Complex copy of the Qur’an.

If visitors do not know what hamzah al-wasl is, please click here for lessons on the hamzah al-wasl.

We ask Allah to reward the brother who initiated this request greatly and we also ask that Allah give him ‘ajr for each and everyone that uses this list and benefits from it.

Jazakum Allahu khairan for your wonderful idea and great patience. Wa assalaam alaikum.
