INTRODUCTION

I decided to separate the Arabic alphabet and math parts from the main page

• (  www.kinberg.net/wordpress/stellan/arabic/  )  as the main page became to big and slow to load. You find the Arabic pages now at:

• Main page 
• (  www.kinberg.net/wordpress/stellan/arabic/  )
• Arabic alphabet is in this page:
  www.kinberg.net/wordpress/stellan/arabic-alphabet/ )
• Arabic math: www.kinberg.net/wordpress/stellan/arabic-math/

Arabic alphabet

http://arabicreadingcourse.com/letters-menu.php explains the Arabic alphabet like Maha does in her video very well.

Here is a list with examples from the Quran Al-Fatiha with letter images borrowed from the arabicreadingcourse.com above:

A funny way to learn the alphabet is  this arabic Alphabet song.

Short vowels

 

Short sowels are made with the Arabic signs Fatha, Khashar and Dhamma.

Tajweed free school  has a good lesson about short vowels

 

.

Long vowels

There are three long vowels:

1. Long alif  – “alif madd”
   if  alif is preceded by a letter with fathah
2. Long Yah – “Ya madd”
   if  yah is preceded by a letter with kashra
3. Long Waw – “vaw madd”
   if  waw is preceded by a letter with dammah

The long vowel is read with the preceding letter as one syllable.

Tajweed free school  has a good lesson about long vowels too:
