INTRODUCTION

All praise to Allah, the Lord of the worlds, and peace and salutations to our leader, the
Prophet Mohammad, and to his family and companions, and those who follow them
in benevolence until the Day of Resurrection. And further:

Qur'an is the Book of guidance for whole mankind. Qur'an is the guidance for every
aspect of life. Qur'an is the Divine book towards which Muslims turn when there is
problem because Qur'an has the solution to every problem. Recitation of Qur'an
brings reward from Allah; it also brings other benefits in the form of the cleansing of
the heart, a chance of communication with Allah and thus becoming a better Muslim.

The Noble Qur'an is a highly admired Book of Allah that requires proper
understanding and recitation. Indeed the Book of Allah is not a book like any other, it
is the timeless Speech of Allah, not a created thing, and the study guide for life and
death and what comes after. Therefore, it deserves a more careful study than anyone
else’s speech. So, as a Muslim, we should recite Qur'an daily with better
understanding and proper recitation so that we can earn Allah’s blessings in this life
and the hereafter.

This book includes the rules of Ya'qub narration. My target in writing this book is to
help the readers to learn the rules of Ya'qub in an easy and simple way; so the rules in
this book are written out in a simplified way away from lengthening. Hope the readers
understand Ya'qub rules clearly without any sort of confusion.

I ask Allah, the Exalted, to benefit all those who read this book and to spread the
knowledge they learn all over the world.

May Allah accepts our deeds and shower blessings on us and on our prophet,
Mohammed, and to his family and all of his companions, and all praises to Allah, the
Lord of the worlds.

The servant of the Qur'an

RULES OF YA'QUBِNARRATION

AL BASMALAH ‫س َم َل ِة‬
ْ ‫ال َب‬

Rule at the beginning of surah:

Ya'qub (both Roways and Rawh) reads with Basmalah at the beginning of a surah
except surat "At-Tawbah”, as all the narrators agreeḍ upon reading the basmalah at
the beginning of the surah when starting recitation except surat "At-Tawbah”.

Rule between two surahs:

The recitation of Ya'qub (both Roways and Rawh) has three allowable ways to join
two surahs together:

1) Basmalah ‫س َِمِلَة‬
ِْ َِ‫ ب‬: Connecting the first surah with the next following surah with a
basmalah; following the cases of the ways of basmalah between two surahs which
are :
a) Cutting off all from each other b) Joining all of them together
c) Finishing the last verse of the surah, then stop then join the basmalah with the
beginning of the surah.

2) Sakt ‫سكت‬ َ without basmalah : A breathless pause between last word of the last
ayah of the first surah and the first ayah of the next following surah with no
basmalah.

3) Join ‫صل‬ِْ ‫ َِو‬without basmalah: Joining the last words of the first surah with the first
words of the following surah with no basmalah.

Ways of joining the end of sūrat Al-Anfal with surat At-Tawbah are as follows:

a) Waqf: Finishing surat Al-Anfal then stopping and taking a breath, then reading
the beginning of surat At-Tawbah (without Basmallah).

b) Sakt: Finishing surat Al-Anfal then stopping without breath (sakt which is

The Four Zohor ‫األَ ِْربَعِال ُزِهر‬

The Four Zohor are what is between the following surahs:

o Al-Muddathir- Al-Qiyama

Al-Muddathir: ِ‫للُ ه َُو أَ ۡه ُل ٱلت ا ۡق َوى َوأ َ ۡه ُل ٱ ۡل َم ۡغف َِرة‬

‫شا ٓ َء ٱ ا ه‬ ٓ ‫َو َما يَ ۡذ ُك ُرونَ إِ ا‬
َ َ‫َّل أَن ي‬

Al-Qiyama: ‫َّل أ ُ ۡق ِس ُم بِيَ ۡو ِم ٱ ۡل ِقيَ َم ِة‬

َٓ

o Al-Infitar- Al-Mutaffifeen

ِ ‫شيئا َوٱ ۡۡل َ ۡم ُر يَ ۡو َمئِذ ِ ا‬

Al-Infitar: ‫لل‬ َ ‫يَ ۡو َم ََّل ت َمۡ ِلكُ ن َۡفس ِلن َۡف ٖس‬
َ ‫َو ۡيل ل ِۡل ُم‬
Al-Mutaffifeen : َ‫ط ِففِين‬

• Al-Fajr- Al-Balad

Al-Fajr: ‫َوٱ ۡد ُخلِي َجناتِي‬

Al-Balad: ‫َّل أ ُ ۡق ِس ُم بِ َهذَا ٱ ۡلبَلَ ِد‬

َٓ

• Al-'Asr- Al-Humaza

Al-'Asr: ‫ص ۡب ِر‬
‫ص ۡوا بِٱل ا‬ ِ ‫ص ۡوا بِٱ ۡل َح‬
َ ‫ق َوت ََوا‬ َ ‫ت َوت ََوا‬
ِ ‫ص ِل َح‬ َ ‫إِ اَّل ٱلاذِينَ َءا َمنُوا َو‬
‫عمِ لُوا ٱل ا‬

Al-Humaza: ‫َو ۡيل ِل ُك ِل هُ َمزَ ة لُّ َمزَ ة‬

The scholars have two opinions in the Four Zohor:

A) The differentiation way ‫َفرقَة‬

ِ ‫َمذ َهب الت‬
They recommend not to join these surahs together because of the bad meaning

Those who read with joining two surahs together, they read with Sakt between the
four zohor.

Those who read with Sakt between two surahs, they read with basmalah between the
four zohor.

B) The similarity way ‫َمذهَب الت َس ِوية‬

They read the four zohor the same way as reading between any other two
surahs and they didn’t differentiate.

PLURAL MEEM ‫ِم ِيمِِاَِْل َجِمع‬

Definition of Plural meem: It refers to the extra meem which indicates masculinity
and plurality.

• Ya'qub (both Roways and Rawh) reads with dhammah of ha’ if it comes after ya’
saakinah both in continuing and stopping as
)‫ ف ِي ُهما‬،‫ علي ُهما‬،‫ أيد ِي ُهن‬،‫ ف ِي ُهن‬،‫ علي ُهن‬،‫ مثلي ُهم‬،‫ يزك ِي ُهم‬،‫ ف ِي ُهم‬،‫(علي ُهم‬

• Roways reads the ha’ with dhammah both in continuing and stopping if it is not
preceded with ya’ because of ‫ جزم‬or ‫ بناء‬in fifteen places which are
،)203 ،169 ،38 ‫ لم تأت ُهم) (اَّلعراف‬،‫ إن يأت ُهم‬،‫ (فآت ُهم عذابا‬،)70 ،14 ‫ ألم يات ُهم) (التوبة‬،‫(يخزهُم‬
،)32 ‫ (يغن ُهم هللا) (النور‬،)133 ‫ (أولم تأت ُهم) (طه‬،)3 ‫ (يله ُهم اۡلمل) (الحجر‬،)39 ‫(ولما يأت ُهم) (يونس‬
،)149 ،11 ‫ (فاستفت ُهم) (الصافات‬، )68 ‫ ( ءات ُهم ضعفين) (اۡلحزاب‬، )51 ‫(أولم يكف ُهم) (العنكبوت‬
)9،7 ‫(ق ُهم العذاب) (وق ُهم السيئات) (غافر‬

Exception: he reads the ha’ with kasrah in )16 ‫(ومن يو ِل ِهم) (اَّلنفال‬

• Ya'qub (both Roways and Rawh) reads the vowel of plural meem which is
before sukoon the same way as the vowel of the ha’ which precedes it both in
continuing and stopping.

Thus, Ya'qub (both Roways and Rawh) reads the plural meem with dhammah if
the ha’ has dhammah as )‫ يريِ ُه ُم هللا‬،‫ (علي ُه ُم الجالء‬and he reads with kasrah if the ha’
has kasrah as )‫هم العجل) (بِ ِه ِم اَّلسباب‬
ِ ِ‫(قلوب‬.

The narrations differs in for example )‫ (وقهم السيئات‬so Roways reads with
dhammah of plural meem because he reads the ha’ with dhammah )‫( ِوق ُه ُم السيئات‬
and Rawh reads with kasrah of plural meem because he reads the ha’ with
kasrah )‫(وقِ ِه ِم السيئات‬

of course is read with a shaddah on it as a result of the merging.

‫ن‬ َ ‫ا ْل َه ْم‬
ِ ِ‫ِزتَيْن‬

Its definition: They are two hamzahs meeting between two words, the first hamzah is
the last letter of the first word and the second hamzah is the first letter of the second
word.

Rule of Rawh:

The rule of Rawh in the two hamzahs next to each other in two words either having
exact vowels or having different vowels is as Hafs which is reading with tahqeeq
َ ‫ َي‬،‫) َجا َء أ َ َحد‬
‫ التَحقِيق‬as (‫شا ُء ِإلَى‬

Rule of Roways

َِ ‫ِِاِلَ ُِمِت َ ِفِقَِتَِانِ ِفِيِال‬

A) Two hamzahs have the same exact vowel ِ‫ش ِْك ِل‬

If two hamzahs meet between two words and they have the same exact vowel, then
Roways reads with ‫ تَس ِهيل‬of the second hamzah and reads the first hamzah with ‫تحقيق‬
such as ( ‫ أَو ِليَا ُء أُولَئِك‬،‫س َماءِ ِإن‬ ُ َ‫ ) ) َجا َء أ‬is read )‫ أَو ِليَاء •ولَئِك‬،‫س َماء •ن‬

َِ ‫ِاِْل ُمِخِت َ ِلِفَِتَِانِ ِفِيِال‬

B) Two hamzahs have different vowels ‫ش ْكِل‬

If the two hamzahs have different vowels, then Roways reads as follows :

o If the first hamzah has fathah and the second has kasrah or dhammah as
ُ ،‫ َجا َء أ ُ امة‬, the second hamzah is read with ‫ تسهيل‬as in ‫ش َهدَا َء •ذ‬
in ‫ش َهدَا َء إِذ‬ ُ ،‫َجا َء • امة‬

o If the first hamzah has kasrah and the second hamzah has fathah as in
‫ساءِ أَو‬
َ ‫الن‬
ِ ‫ ; خِ ط َب ِة‬he changes the second hamzah to ya’ with fathah
as ‫ساءِ َيو‬َ ِ‫خِ ط َب ِة الن‬

o If the first hamzah has dhammah and the second hamzah has fathah
as ‫سفَ َها ُء أَ ََّل‬
ُّ ‫ ال‬he changes the second hamzah to waw with fathah as ‫سفَ َها ُء َو ََّل‬
ُّ ‫ال‬

o If the first hamzah has a dhammah and the second hamzah has kasrah ‫َيشَا ُء ِإلى‬
then there are two allowed ways of reading: either with:
a) ‫ تسهيل‬of the second hamzah as ‫ ; يَشَا ُء•لى‬or
