16. The Sjtf.S, that is, the J which means ' for/ is in 

 four places written apart from the word it governs, e.g. 

 ^ JUi in Stirat-un-Nisa ; \l* J U i n Surat-ul-Kahf • 



G J S3 \ 



J^y\ UJU in Surat-ul-Furqan ; ^ J & in Surat-ul- 

 Ma'arij. 



17. L^f appears three times without \, e.g., A. It is so 

 altered once each in the Suras Tauba, Zukraf and Eahman. 



18. The words ^ £p£ Jj^JJ^J and similar words are 

 pronounced as if there were two w&^s (^) in each, e.g., 

 Dawud, not Daud. The second j is sometimes written in 

 red ink to remind the reader of this rule. 



19. The \ of the pronoun {j\ is not pronounced by all the 



readers, so ^ y& becomes Imam Nafi, a Qari, always 



pronounced it. 



20. Foreign words are written thus : ^5^, J**1m 

 e U, qj+z ^£1, not F&fX &c. In the Sarat-ul- 

 Baqra (+&>ji\ instead of ^ j>\ occurs once. 



21. The \ of «yU& and each \ which comes after J (i.e., fM) 

 is written above, e.g., c^Ui, ^>U, ^Ju, ^ ^ic. 



22. If a moveable hamza is preceded by a quiescent letter 

 the A is not written under it, e.g., not ; SjuTS^ not 



23. Some tenses are shortened, both in writing and reading, 

 when with the next word there would be two jazms (ft*), e.g., 

 ylJk£i not ^Uiy^', Surat-ul-Asra ; &\ ^ for £ft££ 9 

 Surat-ul-Shura; for Surat-ul-Qamr ; 

 M^g'U- for Io^^aII, Surat-ul-'Alaq ; for 

 ^^J^, Surat-ul-Yunas. In Surat-ul-Hud there is one 

 case where ^5 is dropped, although two jazms do not occur, e.g., 

 y&Vfyi for ffi.
