Noorani Qaida Lesson 12: Master Shaddah (ـّ) – Double Letters in Quranic Arabic
Noorani Qaida Lesson 12: This lesson is the extension of sukoon letters. Now actually we are going to add harakah to the sukoon letters.
What is Shaddah?
When you combine a sukoon letter with a vowelled letter or a letter with a movement, it adds emphasis and pressure to the letter.
Actually, combining sukoon with harakah is called shaddah.
Why shaddah is placed here in place of sukoon?
It is because to show you that you are not allowed to pronounce the sukoon by itself
As we know that sukoon letter is not read by itself, same rule is applied here. We cannot read shaddah letter alone.
For pronouncing a shaddah letter it is necessary to have a moving letter before it.
Let’s start the lesson.

FAQs about Noorani Qaida Lesson 12 – Shaddah Rules
What is Shaddah (ـّ) in Quranic Arabic?
Shaddah (ـّ) represents a doubled letter, created by combining a sukoon letter with a vowelled letter. It adds emphasis to the sound.
How do you pronounce a letter with Shaddah?
Pronounce the letter with Shaddah as if you are saying it twice in one go: once with sukoon, then with its vowel.
Why can’t Shaddah be read alone?
Shaddah always needs a preceding letter with a vowel to be pronounced. Like Sukoon, it has no sound on its own.
In the examples, what does “hamzah fathah ba shaddah abb” mean?
It explains the components of a Shaddah word. “Hamzah fathah” (أَ) is the vowel before. “ba shaddah abb” (بّ) shows the doubled “b” sound.
How do different vowels (fatha, kasra, damma) affect Shaddah?
The vowel on the Shaddah determines its pronunciation:
✔️ Fatha (ـَ): أَبَّ = abba
✔️ Kasra (ـِ): أَبِّ = abbi
✔️ Damma (ـُ): أَبُّ = abbu
What are the best practices for learning Shaddah?
✔️ Practice reading examples slowly.
✔️ Say the letter twice to feel the doubling.
✔️ Listen to audio or video for correct pronunciation.
What’s the relationship between Sukoon and Shaddah?
Shaddah is like two letters combined: the first has sukoon, and the second has a vowel. It’s an extension of Sukoon rules.
Shaddah (ـّ) indicates a doubled letter, crucial for accurate Quranic pronunciation. This lesson dives into how to pronounce Shaddah, understand its relationship with Sukoon, and master words containing Shaddah letters.
How to recognize Shaddah in Arabic script?
Shaddah (ـّ) looks like a small “w” placed above a letter. It signifies that you must pronounce the letter as if it were doubled.
How to pronounce a letter with Shaddah (ـّ)?
Say the letter twice without pausing, combining a Sukoon (resting sound) with the letter’s regular vowel (Fathah, Kasrah, or Dammah). Example: أَبَّ (Abba) = “Ab-ba.”
How to read a Shaddah letter with Fathah, Kasrah and Dammah?
The vowel on the Shaddah dictates the pronunciation after the initial Sukoon sound:
✔️ Fathah: أَبَّ = Abba (like “abba” in English)
✔️ Kasrah: أَبِّ = Abbi (like “abbey” in English)
✔️ Dammah: أَبُّ = Abbu (like “uh-boo” in English)
What’s the relationship between Sukoon and Shaddah?
Think of Shaddah as two letters combined – first letter has a Sukoon, the second has a vowel. You say the letter with Sukoon sound followed immediately by the sound of that same letter with a short vowel.
How to Practice Shaddah Effectively?
Focus on the double sound, saying the first part quickly as if it has a Sukoon and the second part with the vowel. Listen to audio recordings and repeat each example several times.
