 Tajweed Lesson Two, Part-1. Arabic Letter Pronunciation with examples (Utterance - Makharaj - مَخْرخ)

Al Halq(حُرُوفُ الحلْقِ)

In the throat, there are 3 makharaj and each one has 2 letters:

ء,ه,ع,ح,غ,خ

حُرُوفُ حَلْقٍ سِـتَّةٌ هَمزٌ وَهَا

عَينٌ وحَاءٌ ثُمَّ غَينٌ ثُمَّ خَا

أَقْصَى الحَلْق

ء,ه

These two letters originates from throat lowest part.

 (همز) ء Pronunciate with little pressing and ه   (ها) without ا

إءْ

أَلله, إِهْدِنا, أُولائكَ, مؤْمنُون

إهْـ

هَداينَا الله, وَاهِيَة, إِلاَّهُوَ, شَهْرُ رَمضَانَ

وَسْطُ الْحَلْق

ع,ح

These two letters originates from the throat center part.

Give attention while pronouncing ع (عَيْنْ), because do not want pronounce  (عَيْنْ) ع as  (همز) ء

إعْ

أنْعَمْتَ, عِندَ رَبِّهِم, فَليَدعُ نادِيَهُ, أَلَم أَعْهَد

إحْ

يَا أرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِين, يؤْنِى الحِكمَة, حبًّا جمًّا, أَحْكَمُ الحَكِمينَ

أَدْنَى الحَلْق

غ,خ

These two letters originate from throat uppermost point.

We have to pronounce these letters with a little weight and a little scratching sound (without pressing makhaarij).

إِغْ

غَيرِ المَغضُوبِ, غِلظَةً, في شُغُلٍ, مغفِرَةً

إخْ

خَيرً أيَّرَهُ, يَخِرُّونَ, خُشَّعًا, مُخْلصِينَ
