The type of madd which is performed according to relevant haroof e Madda while holding corresponding harakats.
There are 3 types of Madd e Asli:
- ا Madda
- و Madda
- ی Madda
Alif madda has relevant harkat of FATHA
Waoo Madda has relevant harkat of DHAMMA
Yaa’ Madda has relevant harkat of KASRA
Ayesha Ishtiaq (Ayesha2006ishtiaq@gmail.com)
Madd-e-Asli is stretching some letters more than others.
It is also same in English: A, e, i, o, u.
Example: zabar before alif sakoon.
- Alif madda
- Waoo madda
- Yaa madda
Quantity is 2 counts or 1 alif.
Naila (nailasaleemnailasaleem18@gmail.com)
Madd-e-Asli is that when there is a sukoon (small curve in front of the letter).
If a letter is before an alif with a zabar before the alif, you have to stretch for the duration of one alif.
The duration of one alif is the time it takes for you to open a closed finger.
