Appendix G — The Matn of al-Shāṭibiyyah, with Translation¶

The complete 1,173-line poem Ḥirz al-Amānī wa-Wajh al-Tahānī of Imām al-Shāṭibī (d. 590 AH). Every line is numbered and anchored, so any “matn line N” citation elsewhere in this book links directly here.

On the Arabic: copied verbatim from the master text (with full ḥarakāt). On the translation: working study-glosses — for the farsh (word-reading) lines, the rumūz (cipher names) are rendered as words, not decoded; the verse rulings live in the chapters. Translations are aids, not a substitute for the matn.

1. بَدَأْتُ بِبِسْمِ اْللهُ فيِ النَّظْمِ أوَّلاَ ... تَبَارَكَ رَحْمَاناً رَحِيماً وَمَوْئِلَا

I began with 'In the name of Allāh' in the poem first — Blessed is He, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate, and a refuge.

2. وَثَنَّيْتُ صَلَّى اللهُ رَبِّي عَلَى الِرَّضَا ... مُحَمَّدٍ الْمُهْدى إلَى النَّاسِ مُرْسَلَا

And secondly: may Allāh, my Lord, send blessings upon the Approved One, Muḥammad, guided and sent to mankind.

3. وَعِتْرَتِهِ ثُمَ الصَّحَابَةِ ثُمّ مَنْ ... تَلاَهُمْ عَلَى اْلإِحْسَانِ بِالخَيْرِ وُبَّلَا

And upon his family, then the Companions, then those who followed them in excellence, showered with goodness.

4. وَثَلَّثْتُ أنَّ اْلَحَمْدَ لِلهِ دائِماً ... وَمَا لَيْسَ مَبْدُوءًا بِهِ أجْذَمُ الْعَلَا

And thirdly: praise belongs to Allāh always — that which is not begun with it [praise] is cut off from loftiness.

5. وَبَعْدُ فَحَبْلُ اللهِ فِينَا كِتَابُهُ ... فَجَاهِدْ بِهِ حِبْلَ الْعِدَا مُتَحَبِّلَا

And then: Allāh's rope among us is His Book — so strive with it against the plots of the enemies, well-prepared.

6. وَأَخْلِقْ بهِ إذْ لَيْسَ يَخْلُقُ جِدَّةً ... جَدِيداً مُوَاليهِ عَلَى الْجِدِّ مُقْبِلَا

And wear it out [through use], for it never grows old — ever-new for the one devoted to it, earnestly engaged.

7. وَقَارِئُهُ الْمَرْضِيُّ قَرَّ مِثَالُهُ ... كاَلاتْرُجِّ حَالَيْهِ مُرِيحًا وَمُوكِلَا

And the approved reciter — his likeness is established like the citron (utrujjah) in both states: fragrant and nourishing.

8. هُوَ الْمُرْتَضَى أَمًّا إِذَا كَانَ أُمَّهً ... وَيَمَّمَهُ ظِلُّ الرَّزَانَةِ قَنْقَلَا

He is the chosen one as a leader if he leads — and the shade of dignity sought him as a destination.

9. هُوَ الْحُرُّ إِنْ كانَ الْحَرِيَّ حَوَارِياً ... لَهُ بِتَحَرِّيهِ إلَى أَنْ تَنَبَّلَا

He is the free man if the worthy one was a disciple to him through his careful pursuit, until he became noble.

10. وَإِنَّ كِتَابَ اللهِ أَوْثَقُ شَافِعٍ ... وَأَغْنَى غَنَاءٍ وَاهِباً مُتَفَضِّلَا

And the Book of Allāh is the most reliable intercessor, and the richest in giving, generous and bountiful.

11. وَخَيْرُ جَلِيسٍ لاَ يُمَلُّ حَدِيثُهُ ... وَتَرْدَادُهُ يَزْدَادُ فِيهِ تَجَمُّلاً

And the best companion whose speech is never tiresome — repeating it only increases its beauty.

12. وَحَيْثُ الْفَتى يَرْتَاعُ فِي ظُلُمَاتِهِ ... مِنَ اْلقَبرِ يَلْقَاهُ سَناً مُتَهَلِّلاً

And where the youth is terrified in the darkness of the grave, it meets him as radiant light, beaming.

13. هُنَالِكَ يَهْنِيهِ مَقِيلاً وَرَوْضَةً ... وَمِنْ أَجْلِهِ فِي ذِرْوَةِ الْعِزِّ يُجْتُلَى

There it congratulates him with a resting place and a garden — and because of it he is revealed at the peak of honor.

14. يُنَاشِدُ في إرْضَائِهِ لحبِيِبِهِ ... وَأَجْدِرْ بِهِ سُؤْلاً إلَيْهِ مُوَصَّلَا

It pleads to satisfy its beloved — and most fitting is it as a request that reaches Him.

15. فَيَا أَيُّهَا الْقَارِي بِهِ مُتَمَسِّكاً ... مُجِلاًّ لَهُ فِي كُلِّ حَالٍ مُبَجِّلا

O you who recite it, holding fast to it, honoring it in every state, revering it.

16. هَنِيئاً مَرِيئاً وَالِدَاكَ عَلَيْهِما ... مَلاَبِسُ أَنْوَارٍ مِنَ التَّاجِ وَالحُلاْ

Congratulations to you! — your parents will wear garments of light, crowns and adornments.

17. فَما ظَنُّكُمْ بالنَّجْلِ عِنْدَ جَزَائِهِ ... أُولَئِكَ أَهْلُ اللهِ والصَّفَوَةُ المَلَا

So what do you think of the offspring at his reward! — those are the people of Allāh, the chosen assembly.

18. أُولُو الْبِرِّ وَالإِحْسَانِ وَالصَّبْرِ وَالتُّقَى ... حُلاَهُمُ بِهَا جَاءَ الْقُرَانُ مُفَصَّلَا

People of righteousness, excellence, patience, and piety — adorned with these, as the Qurʾān came specifying.

19. عَلَيْكَ بِهَا مَا عِشْتَ فِيهَا مُنَافِساً ... وَبِعْ نَفْسَكَ الدُّنْيَا بِأَنْفَاسِهَا الْعُلَا

Hold to these as long as you live, competing in them — and sell your worldly self for those lofty breaths.

20. جَزَى اللهُ بِالْخَيْرَاتِ عَنَّا أَئِمَّةً ... لَنَا نَقَلُوا القُرَآنَ عَذْباً وَسَلْسَلَا

May Allāh reward with goodness, on our behalf, the imāms who transmitted the Qurʾān to us, sweet and flowing.

21. فَمِنْهُمْ بُدُورٌ سَبْعَةٌ قَدْ تَوَسَّطَتْ ... سَمَاءَ الْعُلَى واَلْعَدْلِ زُهْراً وَكُمَّلَا

Among them are seven full moons centered in the sky of loftiness and justice, radiant and complete.

22. لَهَا شُهُبٌ عَنْهَا اُسْتَنَارَتْ فَنَوَّرَتْ ... سَوَادَ الدُّجَى حَتَّى تَفَرَّق وَانْجَلَا

They have meteors [rāwīs] that shone from them and illuminated the darkness of night until it dispersed and cleared.

23. وَسَوْفَ تَرَاهُمْ وَاحِداً بَعْدَ وَاحِدٍ ... مَعَ اثْنَيْنِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ مُتَمَثِّلَا

And you will see them one after another, each with two of his companions, appearing.

24. تَخَيَّرَهُمْ نُقَّادُهُمْ كُلَّ بَارِعٍ ... وَلَيْسَ عَلَى قُرْآنِهِ مُتَأَكِّلَا

Their critics selected them — each one skilled, not one who profiteers from his Qurʾān.

25. فَأَمَّا الْكَرِيمُ السِّرِّ في الطيِّبِ نَافِعٌ ... فَذَاكَ الَّذِي اخْتَارَ الْمَدينَةَ مَنْزِلَا

As for the one noble in secret and goodness — Nāfiʿ — he is the one who chose al-Madīnah as his abode.

26. وَقَالُونُ عِيْسَى ثُمَّ عُثْمانُ وَرْشُهُمْ ... بِصُحْبَتِهِ المَجْدَ الرَّفِيعَ تَأَثَّلَا

And Qālūn is ʿĪsā; then ʿUthmān is their Warsh — through his companionship, lofty glory was established.

27. وَمَكَّةُ عَبْدُ اللهِ فِيهَا مُقَامُهُ ... هُوَ اُبْنُ كَثِيرٍ كاثِرُ الْقَوْمِ مُعْتَلَا

And in Makkah ʿAbdullāh has his station — he is Ibn Kathīr, surpassing the people in eminence.

28. رَوى أَحْمَدُ الْبَزِّيْ لَهُ وَمُحَمَّدٌ ... عَلَى سَنَدٍ وَهْوَ المُلَقَّبُ قُنْبُلَا

Aḥmad al-Bazzī narrated for him, and Muḥammad upon a chain — and he is nicknamed Qunbul.

29. وَأَمَّا الإْمَامُ المَازِنِيُّ صَرِيحُهُمْ ... أَبُو عَمْرٍو الْبَصْرِيْ فَوَالِدُهُ الْعَلَا

As for the Imām al-Māzinī, their pure [Arab] — Abū ʿAmr al-Baṣrī — his father is al-ʿAlāʾ.

30. أَفَاضَ عَلَى يَحْيَى الْيَزِيْدِيِّ سَيْبَهُ ... فَأَصْبَحَ بِالْعَذْبِ الْفُرَاتِ مُعَلَّلَا

He poured his flood [of knowledge] upon Yaḥyā al-Yazīdī — so he became refreshed by the sweet Euphrates.

31. أَبُو عُمَرَ الدُّورِي وَصَالِحُهُمْ أَبُو ... شُعَيْبٍ هُوَ السُّوسِيُّ عَنْهُ تَقَبَّلَا

Abū ʿUmar al-Dūrī, and their righteous one Abū Shuʿayb — he is al-Sūsī — received [the reading] from him.

32. وَأَمَّا دِمَشْقُ الشَّامِ دَارُ ابْنِ عَامِرٍ ... فَتْلِكَ بِعَبْدِ اللهِ طَابَتْ مُحَلَّلَا

As for Damascus of al-Shām, the abode of Ibn ʿĀmir — it was made pleasant by ʿAbdullāh, a lawful place.

33. هِشَامٌ وَعَبْدُ اللهِ وَهْوَ انْتِسَابُهُ ... لِذَكْوَانَ بِالإِسْنَادِ عَنْهُ تَنَقَّلَا

Hishām, and ʿAbdullāh — whose lineage is to Dhakwān — through the chain [of transmission] from him it was passed on.

34. وَبِالْكُوفَةِ الْغَرَّاءِ مِنْهُمْ ثَلاَثَةٌ ... أَذَاعُوا فَقَدْ ضَاعَتْ شَذاً وَقَرَنْفُلَا

And in illustrious al-Kūfah, three of them spread [their readings] — they wafted like fragrance and cloves.

35. فَأَمَّا أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعَاصِمٌ اسْمُهُ ... فَشُعْبَةُ رَاوِيهِ المُبَرِّزُ أَفْضَلَا

As for Abū Bakr — ʿĀṣim is his name — Shuʿbah is his narrator, the outstanding, the most excellent.

36. وَذَاكَ ابْنُ عَيَّاشٍ أَبُو بَكْرٍ الرِّضَا ... وَحَفْصٌ وَبِاْلإتْقَانِ كانَ مُفضَّلَا

And that is Ibn ʿAyyāsh, Abū Bakr the approved one; and Ḥafṣ — in precision he was preferred.

37. وَحَمْزَةُ مَا أَزْكاهُ مِنْ مُتَوَرِّعٍ ... إِمَاماً صَبُوراً لِلقُرانِ مُرَتِّلَا

And Ḥamzah — how pure he was among the pious — an imām, patient, reciting the Qurʾān with tartīl.

38. رَوَى خَلَفٌ عَنْهُ وَخَلاَّدٌ الَّذِي ... رَوَاهُ سُلَيْمٌ مُتْقِناً وَمُحَصَّلَا

Khalaf narrated from him, and Khallād — the one whom Sulaym narrated [from Ḥamzah], with precision and accomplishment.

39. وَأَمَّا عَلِيٌّ فَالْكِسَائِيُّ نَعْتُهُ ... لِمَا كانَ في الإِحْرَامِ فِيهِ تَسَرْبَلَا

As for ʿAlī — al-Kisāʾī is his epithet, because of the kisāʾ (cloak) he wore during iḥrām.

40. رَوَى لَيْثُهُمْ عَنْهُ أَبُو الْحَارِثِ الرِّضاَ ... وَحَفْصٌ هُوَ الدُّورِيْ وَفيِ الذِّكْرِ قَدْ خَلَا

Their Layth narrated from him — Abū al-Ḥārith the approved; and Ḥafṣ — he is al-Dūrī, and in the earlier mention he has been covered.

41. أَبُو عَمْرِهِمْ والْيحْصَبِيُّ ابْنُ عَامِرٍ ... صَرِيحٌ وَبَاقِيهِمْ أَحَاطَ بِهِ الْوَلَا

Their Abū ʿAmr and al-Yaḥṣubī Ibn ʿĀmir are pure Arabs; the rest of them are surrounded by walāʾ (client status).

42. لَهُمْ طُرُقٌ يُهْدَى بِهَا كُلُّ طَارِقٍ ... وَلاَ طَارِقٌ يُخْشَى بِهاَ مُتَمَحِّلاً

They have paths by which every traveler is guided — and no traveler need fear being led astray by them.

43. وَهُنَّ الَّلوَاتِي لِلْمُوَاتِي نَصَبْتُهاَ ... مَنَاصِبَ فَانْصَبْ فِي نِصَابِكَ مُفْضِلَا

And they are the [readings] I have set up for those in agreement as positions — so strive in your station, excelling.

44. وَهَا أَنَا ذَا أَسْعَى لَعَلَّ حُرُوفَهُمْ ... يَطُوعُ بِهَا نَظْمُ الْقَوَافِيْ مُسَهِّلَا

And here I am, striving — perhaps their variant letters will yield to the arrangement of rhymes, made easy.

45. جَعَلْتُ أَبَا جَادٍ عَلَى كُلِّ قَارِئٍ ... دَلِيلاً عَلَى المَنْظُومِ أَوَّلَ أَوَّلَا

I made Abū Jād [the Abjad letter order] a guide for each reciter to the versified poem, first [assigned] to the first [mentioned].

46. وَمِنْ بَعْدِ ذِكْرِي الْحَرْفَ أُسْمِي رِجَالَهُ ... مَتَى تَنْقَضِي آتِيكَ بِالْوَاوِ فَيْصَلَا

And after I mention the variant letter, I name its people — when they end, I come to you with the wāw as a separator.

47. سِوَى أَحْرُفٍ لاَ رِيبَةٌ فِي اتِّصَالِهَا ... وَبالَّلفْظِ أَسْتَغْنِي عَنِ الْقَيْدِ إِنْ جَلَا

Except for letters where there is no doubt in their connection [to a reciter] — and by the explicit wording I dispense with a coded symbol when it is clear.

48. وَرُبَّ مَكاَنٍ كَرَّرَ الْحَرْفَ قَبْلَهَا ... لِمَا عَارِضٍ وَالأَمْرُ لَيْسَ مُهَوِّلاَ

And sometimes a place repeats the letter before [the word] because of something incidental — the matter is not alarming.

49. وَمِنْهُنَّ لِلْكُوفِيِّ ثَاءٌ مُثَلَّتٌ ... وَسِتَّتُهُمْ بِالْخَاءِ لَيْسَ بِأَغْفَلَا

And among [the symbols]: for the Kūfan [reciters] is the three-dotted thāʾ (ث); and six of them by the khāʾ (خ) — it is not neglectful.

50. عَنَيْتُ الأُلَى أَثْبَتُّهُمْ بَعْدَ نَافِعٍ ... وَكُوفٍ وَشَامٍ ذَالُهُمْ لَيْسَ مُغْفَلَا

I meant the ones I established after Nāfiʿ [i.e., the six after him]. And for Kūfah and Shām, their dhāl (ذ) is not neglected.

51. وَكُوفٍ مَعَ المَكِّيِّ بِالظَّاءِ مُعْجَماً ... وَكُوفٍ وَبَصْرٍ غَيْنُهُمْ لَيْسَ مُهْمَلَا

And Kūfah with the Makkan by the dotted ẓāʾ (ظ); and Kūfah and Baṣrah — their ghayn (غ) is not plain.

52. وَذُو النَّقْطِ شِينٌ لِلْكِسَائِي وَحَمْزَةٍ ... وَقُلْ فِيهِمَا مَعْ شُعْبَةٍ صُحْبَةٌ تَلَا

And the dotted one is shīn (ش) for al-Kisāʾī and Ḥamzah; and say: for those two with Shuʿbah — ṣuḥbah follows.

53. صِحَابٌ هَمَا مَعْ حَفْصِهِمْ عَمَّ نَافِعٌ ... وَشَامٍ سَمَا فِي نَافِعٍ وَفَتَى الْعَلَا

Ṣiḥāb is those two [Ḥamzah + al-Kisāʾī] with their Ḥafṣ. ʿAmma [covers] Nāfiʿ and Shām. Samā [covers] Nāfiʿ and the youth of eminence [Ibn Kathīr + Abū ʿAmr].

54. وَمَكٍّ وَحَقٌّ فِيهِ وَابْنِ الْعَلاَءِ قُلْ ... وَقُلْ فِيهِمَا وَالْيَحْصُبِي نَفَرٌ حَلَا

And Makkī — ḥaqq is in it — and Ibn al-ʿAlāʾ, say. And say: for those two and al-Yaḥṣubī — nafar, sweetly.

55. وَحِرْمِيٌّ الْمَكِّيُّ فِيهِ وَنَافِعٍ ... وَحِصْنٌ عَنِ الْكُوفِي وَنَافِعِهِمْ عَلَا

And ḥirmī — the Makkan is in it and Nāfiʿ. And ḥiṣn is from the Kūfan and their Nāfiʿ — [it] rose.

56. وَمَهْماَ أَتَتْ مِنْ قَبْلُ أَوْ بَعْدُ كِلْمَةٌ ... فَكُنْ عِنْدَ شَرْطِي وَاقْضِ بِالْوَاوِ فَيْصَلَا

And whenever a word comes before or after [a symbol], adhere to my condition and conclude with the wāw as a separator.

57. وَمَا كانَ ذَا ضِدٍّ فَإِنِّي بَضِدِّهِ ... غَنّيٌّ فَزَاحِمْ بِالذَّكاءِ لِتَفْضُلَا

And whatever has an opposite — I am free from [needing to state] its opposite; so compete with intelligence to excel.

58. كَمَدٍّ وَإِثْبَاتٍ وَفَتْحٍ وَمُدْغَمٍ ... وَهَمْزٍ وَنَقْلٍ وَاخْتِلاَسٍ تَحَصَّلَا

Like madd [vs. qaṣr], ithbāt [vs. ḥadhf], fatḥ [vs. imālah], idghām [vs. iẓhār], hamz [vs. tashīl], naql [vs. no naql], and ikhtilās [vs. itmām] — grasp [this].

59. وَجَزْمٍ وَتَذْكِيرٍ وَغَيْبٍ وَخِفَّةٍ ... وَجَمْعٍ وَتَنْوِينٍ وَتَحْرِيكٍ اْعَمِلَا

And jazm [vs. voweling], tadhkīr [vs. taʾnīth], ghayb [vs. khiṭāb], khiffah [vs. tashdīd], jamʿ [vs. ifrād], tanwīn [vs. no tanwīn], and taḥrīk [vs. sukūn] — apply [this].

60. وَحَيْثُ جَرَى التَّحْرِيكُ غَيْرَ مُقَيَّدٍ ... هُوَ الْفَتْحُ وَالإِسْكانُ آخَاهُ مَنْزِلَا

And wherever 'movement' (taḥrīk) runs without qualification — it is fatḥah; and sukūn is its counterpart in station.

61. وَآخَيْتُ بَيْنَ النُّونِ وَالْيَا وَفَتْحِهِمْ ... وَكَسْرٍ وَبَيْنَ النَّصْبِ وَالخَفْضِ مُنْزِلَا

And I made brothers: nūn and yāʾ; fatḥ and kasr; naṣb and khafḍ — in station.

62. وَحَيْثُ أَقُولُ الضَّمُّ وَالرَّفْعُ سَاكِتا ... فَغَيْرُهُمُ بِالْفَتْحِ وَالنَّصْبِ أَقْبَلَا

And wherever I say ḍamm or rafʿ silently [i.e., for some] — the others have fatḥ and naṣb.

63. وَفي الرَّفْعِ وَالتَّذْكِيرِ وَالْغَيْبِ جُمْلَةٌ ... عَلَى لَفْظِهَا أَطْلَقْتُ مَنْ قَيَّدَ الْعُلَا

And in rafʿ, tadhkīr, and ghayb — a group [of readings] I released from the constraint of elaboration by their wording.

64. وَقبْلَ وبَعْدَ الْحَرْفِ آتِي بِكُلِّ مَا ... رَمَزْتُ بِهِ فِي الْجَمْعِ إِذْ لَيْسَ مُشْكِلاَ

And before and after the variant letter, I bring all that I symbolized in combination, since it is not confusing.

65. وَسَوْفَ أُسَمِّي حَيْثُ يَسْمَحُ نَظْمُهُ ... بِهِ مُوضِحاً جِيْداً مُعَمًّا وَمُخْوَلَا

And I will name [the reciter explicitly] where the versification permits it — clarifying well, both paternal and maternal [relations].

66. وَمَنْ كانَ ذَا بَابٍ لَهُ فِيهِ مَذْهَبٌ ... فَلاَ بُدَّ أَنْ يُسْمَى فَيُدْرَى وَيُعْقَلَا

And whoever has a position in a chapter — he must be named so it's known and understood.

67. أَهَلَّتْ فَلَبَّتْهَا المَعَانِي لُبَابُهاَ ... وَصُغْتُ بِهَا مَا سَاغَ عَذْباً مُسَلْسَلَا

I called out and the meanings answered with their essence — and I fashioned with them what flowed sweetly and continuously.

68. وَفي يُسْرِهَا التَّيْسِيرُ رُمْتُ اخْتَصَارَهُ ... فَأَجْنَتْ بِعَوْنِ اللهِ مِنْهُ مُؤَمَّلَا

And in its ease — the Taysīr [by Abū ʿAmr al-Dānī] I aimed to summarize — and it yielded, by Allāh's help, what was hoped for.

69. وَأَلْفَافُهَا زَادَتْ بِنَشْرِ فَوَائِدٍ ... فَلَفَّتْ حَيَاءً وَجْهَهَا أَنْ تُفَضَّلَا

And its wrappings increased by spreading benefits — she veiled her face in modesty lest she surpass [her source].

70. وَسَمَّيْتُهاَ "حِرْزَ الأَمَانِيْ" تَيَمُّنا ... وَوَجْهَ التَّهانِي فَاهْنِهِ مُتَقبِّلَا

And I named it 'Ḥirz al-Amānī' (The Fortress of Wishes) for blessedness, and 'Wajh al-Tahānī' (The Face of Congratulations) — so congratulate it, accepting.

71. وَنَادَيْتُ أللَّهُمَّ يَا خَيْرَ سَامِعٍ ... أَعِذْنِي مِنَ التَّسْمِيعِ قَوْلاً وَمِفْعَلَا

And I called: O Allāh, O best of listeners — protect me from ostentation in word and deed.

72. إِلَيكَ يَدِي مِنْكَ الأَيَادِي تَمُدُّهَا ... أَجِرْنِي فَلاَ أَجْرِي بِجَوْرٍ قَأَخْطَلَا

To You my hand reaches out, for from You the bounties extend; grant me protection, that I not run into wrongdoing and so go astray.

73. أَمِينَ وَأَمْناً لِلأَمِينِ بِسِرِّهَا ... وَإنْ عَثَرَتْ فَهْوَ الأَمُونُ تَحَمُّلَا

"Āmīn," and security for the trustworthy one through its secret; and if it stumbles, it is the steadfast camel in bearing its load.

74. أَقُولُ لِحُرٍ وَالْمُرُوءةُ مَرْؤُهَا ... لإخْوَتِهِ الْمِرْآةُ ذُو النُّورِ مِكْحَلَا

I say to a free man — and manliness is his manliness — that for his brethren the mirror is the luminous one, an antimony-vessel for the eye.

75. أَخي أَيُّهَا الْمُجْتَازُ نَظْمِي بِبَابِهِ ... يُنَادَى عَلَيْهِ كَاسِدَ السُّوْقِ أَجْمِلَا

O brother, you who pass by my poem at its gate, over which there is the cry "Bargain well" as over goods slack in the market.

76. وَظُنَّ بِهِ خَيْراً وَسَامِحْ نَسِيجَهُ ... بِالاِغْضاَءِ وَالْحُسْنَى وَإِنْ كانَ هَلْهَلَا

Think well of it, and forgive its weave with overlooking and kindly grace, even if it has come out threadbare.

77. وَسَلِّمْ لإِحْدَى الْحُسْنَيَيْنِ إِصَابَةٌ ... وَالاُخْرَى اجْتِهادٌ رَامَ صَوْباً فَأَمْحَلَا

And concede that one of the two good outcomes is hitting the mark, and the other is an effort that aimed at right but fell barren.

78. وَإِنْ كانَ خَرْقُ فَادَّرِكْهُ بِفَضْلَةٍ ... مِنَ الْحِلْمِ ولْيُصْلِحْهُ مَنْ جَادَ مِقْوَلَا

And if there is a rent, mend it with a surplus of forbearance, and let one who is generous of tongue set it right.

79. وَقُلْ صَادِقًا لَوْلاَ الْوِئَامُ وَرُوحُهُ ... لَطاَحَ الأَنَامُ الْكُلُّ فِي الْخُلْفِ وَالْقِلَا

And say truly: were it not for concord and its spirit, all mankind would perish into discord and mutual hatred.

80. وَعِشْ سَالِماً صَدْراً وَعَنْ غِيبَةٍ فَغِبْ ... تُحَضَّرْ حِظَارَ الْقُدْسِ أَنْقَى مُغَسَّلاَ

Live with a sound breast, and from backbiting keep away, that you may be brought to the enclosure of holiness, purest of those washed clean.

81. وَهذَا زَمَانُ الصَّبْرِ مَنْ لَكَ بِالَّتِي ... كَقَبْضٍ عَلَى جَمْرٍ فَتَنْجُو مِنَ الْبلَا

This is the age of patience — who can grant you the patience that is like gripping a live coal, by which you escape the trial?

82. وَلَوْ أَنَّ عَيْناً سَاعَدتْ لتَوَكَّفَتْ ... سَحَائِبُهَا بِالدَّمْعِ دِيْماً وَهُطَّلَا

And had an eye assisted, its clouds would have dripped tears continuously, in steady downpours.

83. وَلكِنَّها عَنْ قَسْوَةِ الْقَلْبِ قَحْطُهاَ ... فَيَا ضَيْعَةَ الأَعْمَارِ تَمْشِى سَبَهْلَلَا

But its drought comes from the hardness of the heart — so O the waste of lifetimes, walking on aimlessly!

84. بِنَفسِي مَنِ اسْتَهْدَىَ إلَى اللهِ وَحْدَهُ ... وَكانَ لَهُ الْقُرْآنُ شِرْباً وَمَغْسَلَا

With my very self I ransom whoever sought guidance to God alone, and for whom the Qurʾān was a drink and a place of cleansing.

85. وَطَابَتْ عَلَيْهِ أَرْضُهُ فَتفَتَّقَتْ ... بِكُلِّ عَبِيرٍ حِينَ أَصْبَحَ مُخْضَلَا

And his ground became good to him, so it burst forth with every fragrance when it grew moist and verdant.

86. فَطُوْبَى لَهُ وَالشَّوْقُ يَبْعَثُ هَمُّهُ ... وَزَنْدُ الأَسَى يَهْتَاجُ فِي الْقَلْبِ مُشْعِلَا

So blessedness be his, while longing stirs his care, and the fire-stick of grief flares, kindling, in the heart.

87. هُوَ المُجْتَبَى يَغْدُو عَلَى النَّاسِ كُلِّهِمْ ... قَرِيباً غَرِيباً مُسْتَمَالاً مُؤَمَّلَا

He is the chosen one who goes forth to all people, near, a stranger, sought after, hoped in.

88. يَعُدُّ جَمِيعَ النَّاسِ مَوْلىً لأَنَّهُمْ ... عَلَى مَا قَضَاهُ اللهُ يُجْرُونَ أَفْعُلَا

He reckons all people as his masters, because in what God has decreed they carry out their deeds.

89. يَرَى نَفْسَهُ بِالذَّمِّ أَوْلَى لأَنَّهَا ... عَلَى المَجْدِ لَمْ تَلْعقْ مِنَ الصَّبْرِ وَالْأَلَا

He sees himself more deserving of blame, because toward glory it has not tasted of patience and bitter aloe.

90. وَقَدْ قِيلَ كُنْ كَالْكَلْبِ يُقْصِيهِ ... أَهْلُهُ وَمَا يَأْتَلِي فِي نُصْحِهِمْ مُتَبَذِّلَا

It has been said: be like the dog whose owners drive him off, yet he ceases not to give himself wholly to their counsel.

91. لَعَلَّ إِلهَ الْعَرْشِ يَا إِخْوَتِي يَقِي ... جَمَاعَتَنَا كُلَّ المَكاَرِهِ هُوَّلَا

Perhaps the God of the Throne, O my brethren, will guard our company from every dread and terror of hardships.

92. وَيَجْعَلُنَا مِمَّنْ يَكُونُ كِتاَبُهُ ... شَفِيعاً لَهُمْ إِذْ مَا نَسُوْهُ فَيمْحَلَا

And make us among those whose Book will be an intercessor for them, when they have not forgotten it and so been failed.

93. وَبِاللهِ حَوْلِى وَاعْتِصَامِي وَقُوَّتِى ... وَمَالِيَ إِلاَّ سِتْرُهُ مُتَجَلِّلَا

In God is my strength, my refuge, and my power, and I have nothing but His covering as a cloak over me.

94. فَيَا رَبِّ أَنْتَ اللهُ حَسْبِي وَعُدَّتِي ... عَلَيْكَ اعْتِمَادِي ضَارِعاً مُتَوَكِّلَا

So O my Lord, You are God, my sufficiency and my provision; upon You is my reliance, beseeching and trusting.

95. إِذَا مَا أَرَدْتَ الدَّهْرَ تَقْرَأُ فَاسْتَعِذْ ... جِهَاراً مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ بِاللهِ مُسْجَلاَ

Whenever you intend to recite, seek refuge aloud from Shayṭān, with Allāh, openly.

96. عَلَى مَا أَتَى فِي النَّحْلِ يُسْراً ... وَإِنْ تَزِدْ لِرَبِّكَ تَنْزِيهاً فَلَسْتَ مُجَهَّلَا

And they have mentioned the wording 'of the Message' (i.e., another formula) about him [the Prophet]; but for Ḥamzah there is a difference [of opinion] that came connected.

97. وَقَدْ ذَكَرُوا لَفْظَ الرَّسُولِ فَلَمْ يَزِدْ ... وَلَوْ صَحَّ هذَا النَّقْلُ لَمْ يُبْقِ مُجْمَلَا

And whenever you connect it [the istiʿādhah] or begin Barāʾah [= Sūrat al-Tawbah], [you do so] to pause between the two sūrahs, to separate.

98. وَفِيهِ مَقَالٌ فِي الأُصُولِ فُرُوعُهُ ... فَلاَ تَعْدُ مِنْهَا بَاسِقاً وَمُظَلِّلَا

And it [istiʿādhah] is mandatory when you begin a sūrah other than it [Barāʾah]; and in [starting from] parts [of sūrahs], you have a choice — so act.

99. وَإِخْفَاؤُهُ فَصْلٌ أَبَاهُ وَعُاَتُنَا ... وَكَمْ مِنْ فَتىً كالْمَهْدَوِي فِيهِ أَعْمَلَا

And if after stopping you begin with it [the istiʿādhah], you would not [also] be someone who recites the basmalah.

100. وَبَسْمَلَ بَيْنَ السُّورَتَيْنِ بِسُنَّةٍ ... رِجَالٌ نَمَوْهاَ دِرْيَةً وَتَحَمُّلَا

And [some] recited the basmalah between two sūrahs as a sunnah — men who transmitted it with knowledge and learning.

101. وَوَصْلُكَ بَيْنَ السُّورَتَيْنِ فَصَاحَةٌ ... وَصِلْ وَاسْكُتَنْ كُلٌّ جَلاَيَاهُ حَصَّلَا

And your connecting between two sūrahs [without basmalah] is eloquence; and connect, and pause — each has its clarity, comprehended.

102. وَلاَ نَصَّ كَلاَّ حُبَّ وجْهٌ ذَكَرْتُهُ ... وَفِيهاَ خِلاَفٌ جِيدُهُ وَاضِحُ الطُّلَا

And no text — nay, a beloved position I mentioned — and in it there is disagreement whose best [opinion] is clear in its beauty.

103. وسَكْتُهُمُ الْمُخْتَارُ دُونَ تَنَفُّسٍ ... وَبَعْضُهُمُ فِي الأَرْبِعِ الزُّهْرِ بَسْمَلَا

And their sakt (pause without breathing) is the preferred [option]; and some of them recite the basmalah in the four bright [sūrahs].

104. لَهُمْ دُونَ نَصٍّ وَهْوَ فِيهِنَّ سَاكِتٌ ... لِحَمْزَةَ فَافْهَمْهُ وَلَيْسَ مُخَذَّلَا

For them, without explicit text — and he is silent in them [the sūrahs] — for Ḥamzah. So understand it, and it is not abandoned.

105. وَمَهْمَا تَصِلْهَا أَوْ بَدَأْتَ بَرَاءَةً ... لِتَنْزِيْلِهاَ بالسَّيْفِ لَسْتَ مُبَسْمِلَا

And whenever you connect it [to a previous sūrah] or begin Barāʾah (al-Tawbah) — since it was sent down with the sword — you do not recite the basmalah.

106. وَلاَ بُدَّ مِنْهاَ فِي ابْتِدَائِكَ سُورَةً ... سِوَاهاَ وَفي الأَجْزَاءِ خَيَّرَ مَنْ تَلَا

And it [the basmalah] is mandatory when you begin a sūrah other than it [al-Tawbah]; and in [starting from] parts [of sūrahs], the reciters gave a choice.

107. وَمَهْمَا تَصِلْهَا مَعْ أَوَاخِرِ سُورَةٍ فَلاَ تَقِفَنَّ الدَّهْرَ فِيهاَ فَتَثْقُلَا

And whenever you connect it [the basmalah] with the end of a sūrah, never stop at it [the basmalah alone] — for that would be burdensome.

108. وَمَالِكِ يَوْمِ الدِّينِ رَاوِيهِ نَاَصِرٌ ... وَعَنْدَ سِرَاطٍ وَالسِّرَاطَ لِ قُنْبُلَا

And 'Māliki yawm al-dīn' — its narrator is a supporter [nāṣir]; and at 'ṣirāṭ' and 'al-ṣirāṭ' for Qunbul...

109. بِحَيْثُ أَتَى وَالصَّادُ زَاياً اشِمَّهَا ... لَدَى خَلَفٍ وَاشْمِمْ لِخَلاَّدِ الاَوَّلَا

Wherever it occurs; and the ṣād — pronounce it with a hint of zāy (ishmām) for Khalaf; and give ishmām to Khallād for the first [occurrence].

110. عَلَيْهِمْ إِلَيْهِمْ حَمْزَةٌ وَلَدَيْهِموُ ... جَمِيعاً بِضَمِّ الْهاءِ وَقْفاً وَمَوْصِلاَ

ʿAlayhim, ilayhim — Ḥamzah — and ladayhimu, all of them: with ḍamm of the hāʾ, in stopping and in connecting.

111. وَصِلْ ضَمَّ مِيمِ الْجَمْعِ قَبْلَ مُحَرَّكٍ ... دِرَاكاً وَقاَلُونٌ بِتَخْيِيرِهِ جَلَا

And connect the ḍammah of mīm al-jamʿ [the plural pronoun مْ] before a voweled letter, immediately; and Qālūn made clear with his choice.

112. وَمِنْ قَبْلِ هَمْزِ الْقَطْعِ صِلْهَا لِوَرْشِهِمْ ... وَأَسْكَنَهاَ الْبَاقُونَ بَعْدُ لِتَكْمُلَا

And before hamzat al-qaṭʿ, connect it [mīm al-jamʿ] for their Warsh; and the rest silence it [keep it sākin], to complete.

113. وَمِنْ دُونِ وَصْلٍ ضَمُّهَا قَبْلَ سَاكِنٍ ... لِكُلٍ وَبَعْدَ الْهَاءِ كَسْرُ فَتَى الْعَلَا

Without connection [ṣilah], its ḍammah [of mīm al-jamʿ] before a silent letter is for all. And after the hāʾ, the kasrah of Fatā al-ʿAlā.

114. مَعَ الْكَسْرِ قَبْلَ الْهَا أَوِ الْيَاءِ سَاكِناً ... وَفي الْوَصْلِ كَسْرُ الْهَاءِ بالضَّمِّ شَمْلَلَا

With the kasrah before the hāʾ, or the yāʾ [being] sākin — and in connection, the kasrah of the hāʾ with the ḍammah has been merged/grouped.

115. كَمَا بِهِمُ الأَسْبَابُ ثُمَّ عَلَيْهِمُ الْـ ... قِتَالُ وَقِفْ لِلْكُلِّ بِالْكَسْرِ مُكْمِلَا

Like 'bihimu al-asbābu' and then 'ʿalayhimu al-qitālu' — and stop for all with kasrah, completing.

116. وَدُونَكَ الاُِدْغَامَ الْكَبِيرَ وَقُطْبُهُ ... أَبُو عَمْرٍو الْبَصْرِيُّ فِيهِ تَحَفَّلَا

And here is the major assimilation (al-idghām al-kabīr) for you — its pillar is Abū ʿAmr al-Baṣrī, who mastered it.

117. فَفِي كِلْمَةٍ عَنْهُ مَنَاسِككُّمْ وَمَا ... سَلَككُّمْ وَبَاقِي الْبَابِ لَيْسَ مُعَوَّلَا

Within a [single] word, from him [it occurs in]: 'manāsikkukum' and 'mā salakkukum'; and the rest of this topic is not relied upon.

118. وَمَا كَانَ مِنْ مِثْلَيْنِ فِي كِلْمَتَيْهِمَا ... فَلاَ بُدَّ مِنْ إدْغَامِ مَا كانَ أَوَّلَا

And what consists of two identical letters in two [separate] words — there must be assimilation of the first [into the second].

119. كَيَعْلَمُ مَا فِيهِ هُدًى وَطُبِعْ عَلَى ... قُلُوبِهِمُ وَالْعَفْوَ وَأْمُرْ تَمَثَّلَا

Like 'yaʿlamu mā' in which there is guidance, and 'ṭubiʿa ʿalā qulūbihim,' and 'al-ʿafwa waʾmur' — [these are] examples.

120. إِذَا لَمْ يَكُنْ تَا مُخْبِرٍ أَوْ مُخَاطَبٍ ... أوِ الْمُكْتَسِي تنْوِينَهُ أَوْ مُثَقَّلَا

If the [first letter] is not a tāʾ of a reporter [first-person] or addressee [second-person], nor one clothed in tanwīn, nor a mushaddad [doubled] letter.

121. كَكُنْتُ تُرَاباً أَنْتَ تُكْرِهُ وَاسِعٌ ... عَلِيمٌ وَأَيْضاً تَمَّ مِيقاَتُ مُثِّلَا

Like 'kuntu turāban,' 'anta tukrihu,' 'wāsiʿun ʿalīmun,' and also 'tamma mīqātu' — [these are] examples.

122. وَقَدْ أَظْهَرُوا فِي الْكَافِ يَحْزُنْكَ كُفْرُهُ ... إِذِ النُّونُ تُخْفَى قَبْلَهَا لِتُجَمَّلَا

And they showed [iẓhār] at the kāf of 'yaḥzunka kufruhū' — since the nūn is hidden [ikhfāʾ] before it, for beauty.

123. وَعِنْدَهُمُ الْوَجْهَانِ في كُلِّ مَوْضِعٍ ... تَسَمَّى لِأَجْلِ الْحَذْفِ فِيهِ مُعَلَّلَا

And according to them, both options [iẓhār and idghām] apply in every place that is named [problematic] due to deletion in it — justified.

124. كَيَبْتَغِ مَجْزُوماً وَإِنْ يَكُ كاذِبا ... وَيَخْلُ لَكُمْ عَنْ عَالِمٍ طَيِّبِ الْخَلَا

Like 'yabtagh' [as majzūm] and 'in yaku kādhiban' and 'yakhlu lakum' — from a knowledgeable one, good in character.

125. وَيَا قَوْمِ مَالِي ثُمَّ يَا قَوْمِ مَنْ بِلاَ ... خِلاَفٍ عَلَى الْإِدْغَامِ لاَ شَكَّ أُرْسِلَا

And 'yā qawmi mā lī' then 'yā qawmi man' — without disagreement, [decided] upon idghām, no doubt — it was sent.

126. وَإِظْهَارُ قَوْمٍ آلَ لُوطٍ لِكَوْنِهِ ... قَلِيلَ حُرُوفٍ رَدَّه مَنُْ تَنَبَّلَا

And the iẓhār of 'qawmi Āla Lūṭin' — because it [Āl] has few letters, the distinguished one rejected it [the idghām].

127. بِإِدْغاَمِ لَكَ كَيْدًا وَلَوْ حَجَّ مُظْهِرٌ ... بِإِعْلاَلِ ثَانِيهِ إِذَا صَحَّ لاَعْتَلَا

With idghām of 'laka kaydan' and 'law ḥajja' — one who shows [iẓhār] [argues] that because the second letter has iʿlāl, if it were sound it would [also] be ill.

128. فَإِبْدَالُهُ مِنْ هَمْزَةٍ هَاءٌ اَصْلُهَا ... وَقَدْ قَالَ بَعْضُ النَّاسِ مِنْ وَاوٍ ابْدِلَا

So its substitution from a hamzah — hāʾ is its origin. And some people said: substitute [it] from a wāw.

129. وَوَاوَ هُوَ الْمَضْمومُ هَاءً َكَهُو وَمَنْ ... فَأَدْغِمْ وَمَنْ يُظْهِرْ فَبِالْمَدِّ عَلَّلَا

And the wāw of 'huwa' whose hāʾ is ḍammah-bearing — like 'huwa wa-man'; so merge [it]. And whoever shows [iẓhār] justifies it with madd.

130. وَيَأْتِيَ يَوْمٌ أَدْغَمُوهُ وَنَحْوَهُ ... وَلاَ فَرْقَ يُنْجِي مَنْ عَلَى الْمَدِّ عَوَّلَا

And 'yaʾtiya yawmun' — they merged it, and similar cases. No distinction saves the one who relied on madd [as justification for iẓhār].

131. وَقَبْلَ يَئِسْنَ الْيَاءُ في الَّلاءِ عَارِضٌ ... سُكُونًا أَوَ اصْلاً فَهُوَ يُظْهِرُ مُسْهِلَا

And before 'yaʾisna,' the yāʾ in 'al-lāʾī' — whether its sukūn is incidental or original — he shows [iẓhār], making it easy.

132. وَإِنْ كِلْمَةٌ حَرْفَانِ فِيهَا تَقَارَبَا ... فإِدْغَامُهُ لِلْقَافِ في الْكافِ مُجْتَلَا

And if a word has two letters in it that are similar — his idghām of qāf into kāf is manifest.

133. وَهذَا إِذَا مَا قَبْلَهُ مُتَحَرِّكٌ ... مُبِينٌ وَبَعْدَ الْكافِ مِيمٌ تَخَلَّلَا

And this [applies] when what precedes it is a clearly voweled [letter], and after the kāf a mīm has intervened.

134. كَيَرْزُقُكُمْ وَاثقَكُّمُوا وَخَلَقكُّمُو ... وَمِيثَاقَكُمْ أَظْهِرْ وَنَرْزُقُكَ انْجَلَا

Like 'yarzuqukum,' 'wāthaqakkumū,' 'khalaqakkumū' — and 'mīthāqakum': show [iẓhār]. And 'narzuquka' is clear.

135. وَاِدْغَامُ ذِي التَّحْرِيمِ طَلَّقَكُنَّ قُلْ ... أَحَقُّ وَبِالتَّأْنِيثِ وَالْجَمْعِ أُثْقِلَا

And the assimilation of [the dāl in] "ḥarrama," "ṭallaqakunna," say "aḥaqqu," and with the feminine and the plural it was made heavier.

136. وَمَهْماَ يَكُونَا كِلْمَتَيْنِ فَمُدْغِمٌ ... أَوَائِلَ كِلْمِ الْبَيْتِ بَعْدُ عَلَى الْوِلَا

Whenever the two are in two separate words, then [the reciter] assimilates: the opening letters of the words of the [next] verse, taken successively in order.

137. شِفَا لَمْ تَضِقْ نَفْسًا بِهَا رُمْ دَوَا ضنٍ ... ثَوَى كانَ ذَا حُسْنٍ سَأَى مِنْهُ قَدْ جَلَا

[the cipher-letters] "shifā lam taḍiq nafsan bihā rum dawā ḍanin thawā kāna dhā ḥusnin saʾā minhu qad jalā."

138. إِذَا لَمْ يُنَوَّنْ أَوْ يَكُنْ تَا مُخَاطَبٍ ... وَمَا لَيْسَ مَجْزُومًا وَلاَ مُتَثَقِّلَا

When [the first letter] is not nunated, nor is it the tāʾ of the addressed person, nor jussive, nor doubled.

139. فَزُحْزِحْ عَنِ النَّارِ الَّذِي حَاهُ مُدْغَمٌ ... وَفي الْكاَفِ قَافٌ وَهْوَ في الْقَافِ أُدْخِلَا

So "fazuḥziḥa ʿani l-nāri lladhī" — its ḥāʾ is assimilated; and in the kāf a qāf [is merged], and it is into the qāf inserted.

140. خَلَقْ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ لَكْ قُصُوراً وأُظْهِرَا ... إِذَا سَكَنَ الْحَرْفُ الَّذِي قَبْلُ أُقْبِلاَ

"khalaqa kulla shayʾin," "laka quṣūran"; and it is left clearly pronounced when the letter before it is quiescent — when it draws near.

141. وَفي ذِي المَعَارِجِ تَعْرُجُ الْجِيمُ مُدْغَمٌ ... وَمِنْ قَبْلُ أَخْرَج شَّطْأَهُ قَدْ تَثَقَّلَا

And in "dhī l-maʿārij taʿruju" the jīm is assimilated, and before that "akhraja shaṭʾahu" was indeed doubled.

142. وَعِنْدَ سَبِيلاً شِينُ ذِي الْعَرْشِ مُدْغَمٌ ... وَضَادَ لِبَعْضِ شَأْنِهِمْ مُدْغَمًا تَلَا

And at "sabīlan" the shīn of "dhī l-ʿarsh" is assimilated, and the ḍād of "li-baʿḍi shaʾnihim" follows, assimilated.

143. وَفي زُوِّجَتْ سِينُ النُّفُوسِ وَمُدْغَمٌ ... لَهُ الرَّاْسُ شَيْبًا بِاخْتِلاَفٍ تَوَصَّلَا

And in "zuwwijat" the sīn of "al-nufūs," and assimilated for it is "al-raʾsu shayban" — connected with a difference of opinion.

144. وَلِلدَّالِ كِلْمٌ تُرْبُ سَهْلٍ ذَكَا شَذاً ... ضَفَا ثَمَّ زُهْدٌ صِدْقُهُ ظَاهِرٌ جلَا

And for the dāl the words [whose ciphers are]: "turbu sahlin dhakā shadhan ḍafā thamma zuhdun ṣidquhu ẓāhirun jalā."

145. وَلَمْ تُدَّغَمْ مَفْتُوحَةً بَعْدَ سَاكِنٍ ... بِحَرْفٍ بِغَيْرِ التَّاءِ فَاعْلَمْهُ وَاعْمَلَا

And it is not assimilated when opened (fatḥa) after a quiescent letter, by any letter other than the tāʾ — so know it and act on it.

146. وَفِي عَشْرِهَا وَالطَّاءِ تُدْغَمُ تَاؤُهَا ... وَفي أَحْرُفٍ وَجْهَانِ عَنْهُ تَهَلَّلَا

And in its ten [letters] and the ṭāʾ its tāʾ is assimilated, and in [certain] letters there are two allowed ways concerning it — rejoice over it.

147. فَمَعْ حُمِّلُوا التَّوْرَاةَ ثُمَّ الزَّكَاةَ قُلْ ... وَقُلْ آتِ ذَا الْ وَلْتَأْتِ طَائِفَةٌ عَلَا

So with "ḥummilū l-tawrāta," then "al-zakāta" say, and say "āti dhā l-[ḥaqqahu]" and "wa-l-taʾti ṭāʾifatun" — it rose high.

148. وَفي جِئْتِ شَيْئًا أَظْهَرُوا لِخِطَابِهِ ... وَنُقْصَانِهِ وَالْكَسْرُ الاِدْغَامَ سَهَّلَا

And in "jiʾta shayʾan" they pronounced it clearly because of its being an address and its [tāʾ being] defective, while the kasra eased the assimilation.

149. وَفي خَمْسَةٍ وَهْيَ الأَوائِلُ ثَاؤُهَا ... وَفي الصَّادِ ثُمَّ السِّينِ ذَالٌ تَدَخَّلَا

And in five — they being the first ones — its thāʾ, and in the ṣād then the sīn a dhāl entered.

150. وَفي الَّلامِ رَاءٌ وَهْيَ في الرَّا وَأُظْهِرَا ... إِذا انْفَتَحَا بَعدَ المُسَكَّنِ مُنْرَلَا

And in the lām a rāʾ, and it [the rāʾ] is in the rāʾ; and it is pronounced clearly when the two are opened after the quiescent — laid down as a rule.

151. سِوَى قالَ ثُمَّ النُّونُ تُدْغَمُ فِيهِمَا ... عَلَى إِثْرِ تَحْرِيكٍ سِوَى نَحْنُ مُسْجَلَا

Except for "qāla," then the nūn is assimilated into the two of them, following a vowel — except for "naḥnu" — duly recorded.

152. وَتُسْكُنُ عَنْهُ الْمِيمُ مِنْ قَبْلِ بَائِهَا ... عَلَى إِثْرِ تَحْرِيكٍ فَتَخْفَى تَنَزُّلَا

And the mīm is made quiescent for him before its bāʾ, following a vowel, so it becomes hidden, sinking softly.

153. وَفي مَنْ يَشَاءُ با يُعَذِّبُ حَيْثُمَا ... أَتَى مُدْغَمٌ فَادْرِ الأُصُولَ لِتَأْصُلَا

And in "man yashāʾu," "bi-," "yuʿadhdhibu" wherever it comes, it is assimilated — so learn the foundations that you may be well-grounded.

154. وَلاَ يَمْنَعُ الإِدْغامُ إِذْ هُوَ عَارِضٌ ... إِمَالَةَ كَالأَبْرَارِ وَالنَّارِ أَثْقِلَا

And the assimilation, since it is incidental, does not prevent inclination (imāla), as in "al-abrār" and "al-nār" — make it heavier.

155. وَأَشْمِمْ وَرُمْ فِي غَيْرِ بَاءٍ وَمِيمِهَا ... مَعَ الْبَاءِ أَوْ مِيمٍ وَكُنْ مُتَأَمِّلاَ

And give "ishmām" and "rawm" in [letters] other than the bāʾ and its mīm together with the bāʾ, or [other than] a mīm — and be one who reflects.

156. وَإِدْغَامُ حَرْفٍ قَبْلَهُ صَحَّ سَاكِنٌ ... عَسِيرٌ وَبِالإِخْفَاءِ طَبَّقَ مَفْصِلَا

And the assimilation of a letter before which a sound quiescent letter occurs is difficult, and with hiding (ikhfāʾ) it covered [the matter] thoroughly, as a joint [is covered].

157. خُذِ الْعَفْوَ وَأْمُرْ ثُمَّ مِنْ بَعْدِ ظُلْمِهِ ... وَفي المَهْدِ ثُمَّ الخُلْدِ وَالْعِلْمِ فَاشْمُلَا

"khudhi l-ʿafwa wa-ʾmur," then after "ẓulmihi," and in "al-mahd," then "al-khuld" and "al-ʿilm" — so encompass [these cases].

158. وَلَمْ يَصِلُوا هَا مُضْمَرٍ قَبْلَ سَاكِنٍ ... وَمَا قَبْلَهُ التَّحْرِيكُ لِلْكُلِّ وُصِّلَا

They do not connect the hāʾ of a pronoun before a sākin; and when what precedes it is voweled — for all, it is connected.

159. وَمَا قَبْلَهُ التَّسْكِينُ لاِبْنِ كَثِيرِهِمْ ... وَفِيهِ مُهَاناً مَعْهُ حَفْصٌ أَخُو وِلَا

And when what precedes it [the hāʾ] is sākin — for their Ibn Kathīr [he still gives ṣilah]. And in 'fīhi muhānan' — with him is Ḥafṣ, a brother of loyalty.

160. وَسَكِّنْ يُؤَدِّهْ مَعْ نُوَلِّهْ وَنُصْلِهِ ... وَنُؤْتِهِ مِنْهَا فَاعَتَبِرْ صَافِياً حَلَا

And silence [the hāʾ in]: 'yuʾaddih,' 'nuwallih,' 'nuṣlih,' and 'nuʾtih' — from among them. Consider, with pure sweetness.

161. وَعَنْهُمْ وَعَنْ حَفْصٍ فَأَلْقِهْ وَيَتَّقِهْ ... حَمَى صَفْوَهُ قَوْمٌ بِخُلْفٍ وَأَنْهَلَا

And from them and from Ḥafṣ: 'fa-alqih' and 'yattaqih' — [whose] purity was guarded by a people, with disagreement, and was given drink.

162. وَقُلْ بسُكُونِ الْقَافِ وَالْقَصْرِ حَفْصُهُمْ ... وَيَاْتِهْ لَدَى طه بِالاِسْكَانِ يُجْتَلَا

And say [it] with sukūn of the qāf and shortening — their Ḥafṣ. And 'yaʾtih' in Ṭāhā with iskān [sukūn] is manifest.

163. وَفي الْكُلِّ قَصْرُ الْهَاءِ بَانَ لِسَانُهُ ... بخُلْفٍ وَفِي طَهَ بِوَجْهَيْنِ بُجِّلَا

And in all [these words], shortening [qaṣr] the hāʾ — his tongue became clear, with disagreement. And in Ṭāhā, with two options, [he is] revered.

164. وَإِسْكَانُ يَرْضَهُ يُمْنُهُ لُبْسُ طَيِّبٍ ... بِخُلْفِهِمِاَ وَالْقَصُرَ فَاذْكُرْهُ نَوْفَلَا

And the iskān [sukūn] of 'yarḍahu' — its blessing is the garment of a pure one, with disagreement of the two. And the shortening [qaṣr], mention it as a generous gift.

165. لَهُ الرَّحْبُ وَالزِّلْزَالُ خَيْراً يَرَهْ بِهَا ... وَشَرًّا يَرَهْ حَرْفَيْهِ سَكِّنْ لِيَسْهُلَا

For him is abundance. And al-Zilzāl: 'khayran yarah' and 'sharran yarah' — silence [the hāʾ of] both words to make it easy.

166. وَعى نَفَرٌ أَرْجِئْهُ بِالْهَمْزِ سَاكِنا ... وَفي الْهَاءِ ضَمٌّ لَفَّ دَعْوَاهُ حَرْمَلَا

A group understood: 'arjiʾhu' with the hamzah being sākin. And on the hāʾ is ḍammah — its claim was wrapped by Ḥarmalah.

167. وَأَسْكِنْ نَصِيراً فَازَ وَاكْسِرْ لِغَيْرِهِمْ ... وَصِلْهَا جوَاداً دُونَ رَيْبٍ لِتُوصَلَا

And silence [it] — a helper who triumphed. And give kasrah to others. And connect it [the hāʾ] generously, without doubt, so it may be connected.

168. إِذَا أَلِفٌ أَوْ يَاؤُهَا بَعْدَ كَسْرَةٍ ... أَوِ الْوَاوُ عَنْ ضَمٍّ لَقِي الْهَمْزَ طُوِّلَا

When an alif, or a yāʾ after a kasrah, or a wāw after a ḍammah meets a hamzah — it is lengthened.

169. فَإِنْ يَنْفَصِلْ فَالْقَصْرَ بَادِرْهُ طَالِباً ... بِخُلْفِهِماَ يُرْوِيكَ دَرًّا وَمُخْضَلَا

And if it [the madd letter and the hamzah] are separated [in two different words], then hasten to shorten it — seeking. With the disagreement of the two, it will quench you with milk and [make you] lush.

170. كَجِئَ وَعَنْ سُوءٍ وَشَاءَ اتِّصَالُهُ ... وَمَفْصُولُهُ في أُمِّهَا أَمْرُهُ إِلَى

Like 'jīʾa' and 'ʿan sūʾin' and 'shāʾa' — these are its connected [form]. And its separated [form] is in 'ummihā amruhū ilā.'

171. وَمَا بَعْدَ هَمْزٍ ثَابِتٍ أَوْ مُغَيَّرٍ ... فَقَصْرٌ وَقَدْ يُرْوَى لِوَرْش مُطَوَّلَا

And what comes after a hamzah — whether established or changed — [its madd is] qaṣr. But it may be transmitted for Warsh as lengthened.

172. وَوَسَّطَهُ قَوْمٌ كَآمَنَ هَؤُلاَ ... ءِآلِهَةً آتى لِلاِيْمَانِ مُثِّلَا

And a group gave it medium length — like 'āmana,' 'hāʾulāʾi,' 'ālihatan,' 'ātā,' for [the sake of] faith — as an example.

173. سِوى يَاءِ إِسْرَاءيِلَ أَوْ بَعْدَ سَاكِنٍ ... صَحِيحٍ كَقُرْآنِ وَمَسْئُولاً اسْأَلَا

Except the yāʾ of 'Isrāʾīl,' or [a madd letter] after a sound sākin [consonant], like 'Qurʾān' and 'masʾūlan' — ask!

174. وَمَا بَعْدَ هَمْزِ الْوَصْلِ إيتِ ... وَبَعْضُهُمْ يُؤَاخِذُكُمْ آلانَ مُسْتَفْهِماً تَلَا

And what comes after hamzat al-waṣl [is not lengthened] ... and some of them [lengthen] 'yuʾākhidhukum,' 'al-āna' when interrogative — he recited.

175. وَعَادً الاُولَى وَابْنُ غَلْبُونَ طَاهِرٌ ... بِقَصْرِ جَمِيعِ الْبَاب قَالَ وَقَوَّلَا

And ʿĀd al-ūlā — and Ibn Ghalbūn, Ṭāhir, with shortening of the entire chapter, he said and was quoted.

176. وَعَنْ كُلِّهِمْ بِالْمَدِّ مَا قَبْلَ سَاكِنٍ ... وعِنْدَ سُكُونِ الْوَقْفِ وَجْهَانِ أُصِّلا

And from all of them, with madd [is] what comes before a sākin; and at the sukūn of stopping [waqf], two options are established.

177. وَمُدَّ لَهُ عِنْدَ الْفَوَاتِحِ مُشْبِعا ... وَفي عَيْنٍ الْوَجْهَانِ وَالطُّولُ فُضِّلَا

And lengthen for it at the openers [fawātiḥ, the mysterious letters] with full saturation. And in ʿayn, two options — and length is preferred.

178. وَفي نَحْوِ طهَ الْقَصْرُ إِذْ لَيْسَ سَاكِنٌ ... وَمَا فِي أَلِفْ مِنْ حَرْفِ مَدٍ فَيُمْطَلَا

And in the likes of Ṭā Hā, [there is] shortening — since there is no sākin [after it]. And there is no madd letter in 'alif' to be extended.

179. وَإِنْ تَسْكُنِ الْيَا بَيْنَ فَتْحٍ وَهَمْزَةٍ ... بِكِلْمَةٍ أَوْ وَاوٌ فَوَجْهَانِ جُمِّلَا

And if the yāʾ is sākin between a fatḥah and a hamzah within a word — or [likewise] a wāw — then two options are beautified.

180. بِطُولٍ وَقَصْرٍ وَصْلُ وَرْشٍ وَوَقْفُهُ ... وَعِنْدَ سُكُونِ الْوَقْفِ لِلْكُلِّ أُعْمِلَا

With length and shortness — Warsh's connection [waṣl] and his stopping [waqf]. And at the sukūn of waqf, for all it is applied.

181. وَعَنْهُمْ سُقُوطُ الْمَدِّ فِيهِ وَوَرْشُهُمْ ... يُوَافِقُهُمْ فِي حَيْثُ لا هَمْزَ مُدْخَلَا

And from them, the dropping of madd in it. And their Warsh agrees with them where no hamzah is entered.

182. وَفِي وَاوِ سَوْآتٍ خِلاَفٌ لِوَرْشِهِمْ ... وَعَنْ كُلٍ الْمَوْءُودَةُ اقْصُرْ وَمَوْئِلَا

And in the wāw of 'sawʾāt' there is disagreement for their Warsh. And from all: 'al-mawʾūdah' — shorten. And 'mawʾilā.'

183. وَتَسْهِيلُ أُخْرَى هَمْزَتَيْنِ بِكِلْمةٍ ... سَمَا وَبِذَاتِ الْفتْحِ خُلْفٌ لِتَجْمُلَا

And tashīl [facilitation] of the second of two hamzahs in a word — [it] rose high. And in the one with fatḥ, there is disagreement, for beauty.

184. وَقُلْ أَلِفاً عَنْ أَهْلِ مِصْرَ تَبَدَّلَّتْ ... لِوَرْشٍ وَفي بَغْدَادَ يُرْوَى مُسَهَّلَا

And say: an alif — from the people of Egypt — was substituted for Warsh. And in Baghdad it is transmitted as tashīl.

185. وَحَقَّقَهَا فِي فُصِّلَتْ صُحْبَةٌ ءأَعْـ ... جَمِيٌّ وَالاْولَى أَسْقِطَنَّ لِتُسْهِلاَ

And ṣuḥbah [Ḥamzah + Kisāʾī + Shuʿbah] pronounced both hamzahs fully in Fuṣṣilat: 'aʾaʿjamiyyun.' And drop the first to make it easy.

186. وَهَمْزَة أَذْهَبْتُمْ فِي الاَحْقَافِ شُفِّعَتْ ... بِأُخْرَى كَمَا دَامَتْ وِصَالاً مُوَصَّلَا

And the hamzah of 'adhhabtum' in al-Aḥqāf was paired with another — as long as it lasted in connection, connected.

187. وَفِي نُونَ فِي أَنْ كَانَ شَفَّعَ حَمْزَةٌ ... وَشُعْبَةُ أَيْضاً وَالدِّمَشْقِيْ مُسَهِّلَا

And in [Sūrat] Nūn, in 'an kāna' — Ḥamzah paired [the hamzah], and Shuʿbah also, and the Dimashqī [Ibn ʿĀmir] with tashīl.

188. وَفِي آلِ عِمْرَانٍ عَنِ ابْنِ كَثِيرِهِمْ ... يُشَفَّعُ أَنْ يُؤْتَى إِلَى مَا تَسَهَّلَا

And in Āl ʿImrān, from their Ibn Kathīr — 'an yuʾtā' is paired, up to what is facilitated.

189. وَطه وفِي الأَعْرَافِ وَالشُّعَرَا بِهَا ... ءَآمَنْتُمُ لِلكُلِّ ثَالِثًا ابْدِلَا

And Ṭāhā and in al-Aʿrāf and al-Shuʿarāʾ — in them 'āmantum' — for all, substitute the third [hamzah].

190. وَحَقَّقَ ثَانٍ صُحْبَةٌ وَلِقُنْبُلٍ ... بِإِسْقَاطِهِ الأُولَى بِطَهَ تُقُبِّلَا

And ṣuḥbah pronounced the second [hamzah] fully. And for Qunbul — by dropping the first, in Ṭāhā [it] was accepted.

191. وَفي كُلِّهَا حَفْصٌ وَأَبْدَلَ قُنْبُلٌ ... فِي اْلاَعْرَافِ مِنْهَا الْوَاوَ وَالْمُلْكِ مُوْصِلَا

And in all of them, Ḥafṣ [does the same]. And Qunbul substituted in al-Aʿrāf from it the wāw, and [in] al-Mulk, connecting.

192. وَإِنْ هَمْزُ وَصْلٍ بَيْنَ لاَمٍ مُسَكَّنٍ ... وَهَمْزَةِ الاِسْتِفْهَامِ فَامْدُدْهُ مُبْدِلَا

And if a hamzat al-waṣl [falls] between a sākin lām and a hamzat al-istifhām — then lengthen it, substituting.

193. فَلِلْكُلِّ ذَا أَوْلى وَيَقْصُرُهُ الَّذِي ... يُسَهِّلُ عَنْ كُلِّ كَآلانَ مُثِّلَا

For all, this is more fitting. And the one who facilitates shortens it — from all, like 'al-āna' — exemplified.

194. وَلاَ مَدَّ بَيْنَ الْهَمْزَتَيْنِ هُنَا وَلاَ ... بِحَيْثُ ثَلاَثٌ يَتَّفِقْنَ تَنَزُّلَا

And no madd between the two hamzahs here, nor where three [hamzahs] agree — [this was] sent down.

195. وَأَضْرُبُ جَمْعِ الْهَمْزَتَيْنِ ثَلاَثَةٌ ... ءأَنْذَرْتَهُمْ أَمْ لَمْ أَئِنَّا أَءُنْزِلَا

And the types of combining two hamzahs are three: أَأَنذَرْتَهُمْ, أَمْ لَمْ (then) أَئِنَّا, أَءُنزِلَ.

196. وَمَدُّكَ قَبْلَ الْفَتْحِ وَالْكَسْرِ حُجَّةٌ ... بِهَا لُذُّ وَقَبْلَ الْكَسْرِ خُلْفٌ لَهُ وَلَا

And your madd [insertion] before the fatḥ and the kasr — [is] a ḥujjah [proof]. Delight in it. And before the kasr, he has disagreement — and [one option is] not [to insert madd].

197. وَفي سَبْعَةٍ لاَ خُلْفَ عَنْهُ بِمَرْيَمٍ ... وَفي حَرْفَيِ الأَعْرَافِ وَالشُّعَرَا الْعُلَا

And in seven — no disagreement from him — in Maryam, and in two instances in al-Aʿrāf, and al-Shuʿarāʾ the lofty.

198. أَئِنَّكَ آئِفْكاً مَعًا فَوْقَ صَادِهَا ... وَفي فُصِّلَتْ حَرْفٌ وَبِالخُلْفِ سُهِّلَا

أَئِنَّكَ [and] أَئِفْكاً — both, above its ṣād. And in Fuṣṣilat one instance, and with disagreement it was facilitated.

199. وَآئِمَّةً بِالخُلْفِ قَدْ مَدَّ وَحْدَهُ ... وَسَهِّلْ سَمَا وَصْفاً وَفي النَّحْوِ أُبْدِلَا

And 'aʾimmatan' — with disagreement, he alone lengthened. And facilitate [it] — samā describes — and in grammar it was substituted.

200. وَمَدُّكَ قَبْلَ الضَّمِّ لَبَّى حَبِيبُهُ ... بِخُلْفهِمَا بَرَّا وَجَاءَ لِيَفْصِلَا

And your madd before the ḍammah — his beloved answered [yes], with disagreement of the two, devoutly. And he came to decide.

201. وَفي آلِ عِمْرَانَ رَووْا لِهِشَامِهِمْ ... كَحَفْصٍ وَفي الْبَاقِي كَقَالُونَ وَاعْتَلاَ

And in Āl ʿImrān, they transmitted for their Hishām like Ḥafṣ. And in the rest, like Qālūn — and he rose.

202. وَأَسْقَطَ الأُولَى في اتِّفَاقِهِمَا مَعًا ... إِذَا كَانَتَا مِنْ كِلْمَتَيْنِ فَتَى الْعُلَا

And he dropped the first [hamzah] when they agree [in voweling], if they are from two words — the youth of loftiness [= Abū ʿAmr].

203. كَجَا أَمْرُنَا مِنَ السَّماَ إِنَّ أَوْلِيَا ... أُولَئِكَ أَنْوَاعُ اتِّفَاقٍ تَجَمَّلَا

Like 'jāʾa amrunā,' 'min al-samāʾi inna,' 'awliyāʾu ūlāʾika' — types of agreement beautified.

204. وَقَالُونُ وَالْبَزِّيُّ في الْفَتْحِ وَافَقَا ... وَفي غَيْرِهِ كَالْياَ وَكَالْوَاوِ سَهَّلَا

And Qālūn and al-Bazzī agreed in the fatḥ [type]. And in other than it, [they facilitated] like yāʾ and like wāw.

205. وَبِالسُّوءِ إِلاَّ أَبْدَلاَ ثُمَّ أَدْغَمَا ... وَفِيهِ خِلاَفٌ عَنْهُمَا لَيْسَ مُقْفَلَا

And 'bi-l-sūʾi illā' — they substituted then merged [idghām]. And in it there is disagreement from both, not locked.

206. وَالاُخْرَى كَمَدٍّ عِنْدَ وَرْشٍ وَقُنْبُلٍ ... وَقَدْ قِيلَ مَحْضُ المَدِّ عَنْهَا تَبَدَّلَا

And the second [hamzah] is like a madd [letter] for Warsh and Qunbul. And it was said: pure madd — substituted from it.

207. وَفي هؤُلاَ إِنْ وَالْبِغَا إِنْ لِوَرْشِهِمْ ... بِيَاءٍ خَفِيفِ الْكَسْرِ بَعْضُهُمْ تَلَا

And in 'hāʾulāʾi in' and 'al-bighāʾi in' — for their Warsh — with yāʾ of light kasrah, some of them recited.

208. وَإِنْ حَرْفُ مَدٍّ قَبْلَ هَمْزٍ مُغَيَّرٍ ... يَجُزْ قَصْرُهُ وَالْمَدُّ مَا زَالَ أَعْدَلَا

And if a madd letter [falls] before a changed hamzah — shortening it is permissible, but madd has always been more just.

209. وَتَسْهِيلُ الاُخْرَى في اخْتِلاَفِهِماَ سَمَا ... تَفِيءَ إِلَى مَعْ جَاءَ أُمَّةً اُنْزِلَا

And tashīl of the second [hamzah] when they disagree [in voweling] — samā. [Like] 'tafīʾa ilā,' 'jāʾa ummatan,' 'unzila.'

210. نَشَاءُ أَصَبْنَا والسَّماءِ أَوِ ائْتِنَا ... فَنَوْعَانِ قُلْ كالْيَا وَكَالْوَاوِ سُهِّلَا

'Nashāʾu aṣabnā' and 'al-samāʾi aw iʾtinā' — two types. Say: like yāʾ and like wāw — facilitated.

211. وَنَوْعَانِ مِنْهَا أُبْدِلاَ مِنْهُمَا وَقُلْ ... يَشَاءُ إِلى كالْيَاءِ أَقْيَسُ مَعْدِلَا

And two types of these are substituted [ibdāl] from both. And say: 'yashāʾu ilā' — like yāʾ is more analogically correct, balanced.

212. وَعَنْ أَكْثَرِ الْقُرَّاءِ تُبْدَلُ وَاوُهَا ... وَكُلٌّ بِهَمْزِ الْكُلِّ يَبْدَا مُفَصِّلَا

And from most reciters, its wāw is substituted. And all begin with the hamzah of all, distinguishing.

213. وَالاِبْدَالُ مَحْضٌ وَالْمُسَهَّلُ بَيْنَ مَا ... هُوَ الْهَمْزُ وَالحَرْفُ الَّذِي مِنهُ أُشْكِلَا

And ibdāl is pure [substitution], while the facilitated [tashīl] is between what is a hamzah and the letter from which it is made to resemble.

214. إِذَا سَكَنَتْ فَاءً مِنَ الْفِعْلِ هَمْزَةٌ ... فَوَرْشٌ يُرِيهَا حَرْفَ مَدٍّ مُبَدِّلَا

When a hamzah that is the fāʾ [first radical] of a verb becomes sākin — Warsh shows it as a madd letter, substituting.

215. سِوَى جُمْلَةِ الإِيوَاءِ وَالْوَاوُ عَنْهُ إِنْ ... تَفَتَّحَ إِثْرَ الضَّمِّ نَحْوُ مُؤَجَّلَا

Except the group of 'al-īwāʾ' [sheltering]. And the wāw from him, if it takes fatḥah after ḍammah — like 'muʾajjalan.'

216. وَيُبْدَلُ لِلسُّوسِيِّ كُلُّ مُسَكَّنٍ ... مِنَ الْهَمْزِ مَدًّا غَيْرَ مَجْزُومٍ اْهْمِلاَ

And for al-Sūsī, every sākin hamzah is substituted with a madd [letter] — except majzūm [apocopated], which is left.

217. تَسُؤْ وَنَشَأْ سِتٌّ وَعَشْرٌ يَشَأ وَمَعْ ... يُهَيِّئْ وَنَنْسَأْهَا يُنَبَّأْ تَكَمَّلَا

Tasuʾ and nashaʾ — six; and ten [for] yashaʾ; and with yuhayiʾ and nansaʾhā, and yunabbaʾ — completed.

218. وَهَيِّئْ وَأَنْبِئْهُمْ وَنَبِّئْ بِأَرْبَعٍ ... وَأَرْجِئْ مَعًا وَاقْرَأْ ثَلاَثًا فَحَصِّلَا

And hayiʾ and anbiʾhum and nabbiʾ — in four [places]. And arjiʾ — together. And iqraʾ — three. So comprehend.

219. وتُؤْوِي وَتُؤْوِيهِ أَخَفُّ بِهَمْزِهِ ... وَرِئْيًا بِتَرْكِ الْهَمْزِ يُشْبِهُ الامْتِلَا

And 'tuʾwī' and 'tuʾwīhi' — lighter with its hamzah. And 'riʾyan' — by leaving the hamzah, it resembles fullness.

220. وَمُؤْصَدَةٌ أَوْصَدتُّ يُشْبِهُ كُلُّهُ ... تَخَيَّرَهُ أَهْلُ الأَدَاءِ مُعَلِّلَا

And 'muʾṣadah' — 'awṣadtu' resembles all of it. The people of performance chose it, explaining.

221. وَبَارِئِكُمُ بِالْهَمْزِ حَالَ سُكُونِهِ ... وَقَالَ ابْنَ غَلْبُونٍ بِيَاءٍ تَبَدَّلَا

And 'bāriʾikum' with the hamzah while it is sākin. And Ibn Ghalbūn said: substituted with yāʾ.

222. وَوَالاَهُ في بِئْرٍ وَفي بِئْسَ وَرْشُهُمْ ... وَفي الذِّئْبِ وَرْشٌ وَالْكِسَائِي فَأَبْدَلَا

And he [Ibn Ghalbūn?] followed him in 'biʾr' and 'biʾsa' — their Warsh. And in 'al-dhiʾb' — Warsh and al-Kisāʾī substituted.

223. وَفي لُؤْلُؤٍ في العُرْفِ وَالنُّكْرِ شُعْبَةٌ ... وَيَأْلِتْكُمُ الدُّورِي وَالاِبْدَالُ يُجْتَلَا

And in 'luʾluʾ' — definite and indefinite — Shuʿbah. And 'yaʾlitkum' — al-Dūrī. And the substitution is manifest.

224. وَوَرْشٌ لِئَلاَّ والنَّسِيءُ بِيَائِهِ ... وَأَدْغَمَ في يَاءِ النَّسِىءِ فَثَقَّلَا

And Warsh [reads] 'liʾallā' and 'al-nasīʾ' with its yāʾ. And he merged into the yāʾ of 'al-nasīʾ' and doubled.

225. وَإِبْدَالُ أُخْرَى الْهَمْزَتَيْنِ لِكُلِّهِمْ ... إِذَا سَكَنَتْ عَزْمٌ كَآدَمَ أُوهِلَا

And the substitution of the second of two hamzahs — for all of them — when it becomes sākin, is firm. Like 'Ādama,' 'ūhila.'

226. وَحَرِّكْ لِوَرْشٍ كُلَّ سَاكِنٍ آخِرٍ ... صَحِيحٍ بِشَكْلِ الْهَمْزِ واحْذِفْهُ مُسْهِلَا

And for Warsh, move [the vowel to] every final sākin sound consonant with the form of the hamzah, and delete it [the hamzah], facilitating.

227. وَعَنْ حَمْزَةٍ في الْوَقْفِ خُلْفٌ وَعِنْدَهُ ... رَوَى خَلَفٌ في الْوَصْلِ سَكْتًا مُقَلَّلَا

And from Ḥamzah, at stopping [waqf] there is disagreement. And from him, Khalaf transmitted in connected speech a slight saktah [pause].

228. وَيَسْكُتُ في شَيْءٍ وَشَيْئًا وَبَعْضُهُمْ ... لَدَى الَّلامِ لِلتَّعْرِيفِ عَنْ حَمْزَةٍ تَلَا

And he pauses [sakt] at 'shayʾin' and 'shayʾan.' And some of them transmitted for Ḥamzah [sakt] at the lām of the definite article.

229. وَشَيْءٍ وَشَيْئًا لَمْ يَزِدْ وَلِنَافِعٍ ... لَدَى يُونُسٍ آلانَ بِالنَّقْلِ نُقِّلَا

'Shayʾin' and 'shayʾan' he did not add [more than sakt]. And for Nāfiʿ, at Yūnus: 'al-āna' — with naql it was transferred.

230. وَقُلْ عَادًا الأُوْلَى بِإِسْكَانِ لامِهِ ... وَتَنْوِينُهُ بِالْكَسْرِ كَاسِيهِ ظَلَّلَا

And say 'ʿĀdan al-ūlā' with sukūn on its lām. And its tanwīn with kasrah — its clothier shaded it.

231. وَأَدْغَمَ بَاقِيهِمْ وَبِالنَّقْلِ وَصْلُهُمْ ... وَبَدْؤُهُمُ وَالْبَدْءُ بِالأَصْلِ فُضِّلاَ

And the rest merged [idghām]. And with naql is their connecting. And their beginning — and beginning with the original is preferred.

232. لِقَالُونَ وَالْبَصْرِي وَتُهْمَزُ وَاوُهُ ... لِقَالُونَ حَالَ النَّقْلِ بَدْءًا وَمَوْصِلَا

For Qālūn and the Baṣrī [Abū ʿAmr]. And its wāw is given hamzah for Qālūn in the case of naql — beginning and connecting.

233. وَتَبْدَاْ بِهَمْزِ الْوَصْلِ في النَّقْلِ كُلِّهِ ... وَإِنْ كُنْتَ مُعْتَدًّا بِعَارِضِهِ فَلَا

And you begin with hamzat al-waṣl in all naql. And if you consider its [naql's] incidentalness — then no.

234. وَنقْلُ رِدًا عَنْ نَافِعٍ وَكِتَابِيَهْ ... بِالاِسْكانِ عَنْ وَرْشٍ أَصَحُّ تَقَبَّلَا

And the naql of 'ridan' is from Nāfiʿ. And 'kitābiyah' — with iskān — from Warsh is more correct, accepted.

235. وَحَمْزَةُ عِنْدَ الْوَقْفِ سَهَّلَ هَمْزَهُ ... إِذَا كَانَ وَسْطًا أَوْ تَطَرَّفَ مَنْزِلَا

And Ḥamzah, at stopping, facilitated his hamzah — whether it was in the middle or at the end of the word.

236. فَأَبْدِلْهُ عَنْهُ حَرْفَ مَدِّ مُسَكِّنًا ... وَمِنْ قَبْلِهِ تَحْرِيكُهُ قَدْ تَنَزَّلَا

So substitute it [the hamzah] from him with a madd letter, making it sākin. And its [the preceding letter's] vowel before it has descended [been established].

237. وَحَرِّكْ بِهِ مَا قَبْلَهُ مَتَسَكِّنًا ... وَأَسْقِطْهُ حَتَّى يَرْجِعَ اللَّفْظُ أَسْهَلَا

And move [the hamzah's vowel] to what precedes it if it is sākin, and drop it [the hamzah] — until the word returns easier.

238. سِوَى أَنَّهُ مِنْ بَعْدِ مَا أَلِفٍ جَرى ... يُسَهِّلُهُ مَهْمَا تَوَسَّطَ مَدْخَلَا

Except that after an alif that has occurred — he facilitates it whenever it is in the middle, entering.

239. وَيُبْدِلُهُ مَهْمَا تَطَرَّفَ مِثْلَهُ ... وَيَقْصُرُ أَوْ يَمْضِي عَلَى الْمَدِّ أَطْوَلَا

And he substitutes it whenever it is at the end — like it [with a matching letter]. And he shortens, or continues with madd longer.

240. وَيُدْغِمُ فِيهِ الْوَاوَ وَالْيَاءَ مُبْدِلا ... إِذَا زِيدَتَا مِنْ قَبْلُ حَتَّى يُفَصَّلَا

And he merges into it the wāw and the yāʾ, substituting — if they were added before, until it is distinguished.

241. وَيُسْمِعُ بَعْدَ الْكَسْرِ وَالضَّمِّ هَمْزَهُ ... لَدى فَتْحِهِ يَاءًا وَوَاوًا مُحَوَّلَا

And he makes heard after kasrah and ḍammah his hamzah — at its fatḥah: [as] a yāʾ and a wāw, transformed.

242. وَفي غَيْرِ هذَا بَيْنَ بَيْنَ وَمِثْلُهُ ... يَقُولُ هِشَامٌ مَا تَطَرَّفَ مُسْهِلَا

And in other than this — [it is pronounced] between-between [bayna bayna]. And like him, Hishām says — what is final, facilitating.

243. وَرِءْيَا عَلَى إِظْهَارِهِ وَإِدْغَامِهِ ... وَبَعْضٌ بِكَسْرِ الْهَا لِيَاءٍ تَحَوَّلَا

And 'riʾyan' — upon its iẓhār and its idghām. And some [read it] with kasrah of the hāʾ — the [hamzah] having changed to yāʾ.

244. كَقَوْلِكَ أَنْبِئْهُمْ وَنَبِّئْهُمُ وَقَدْ ... رَوَوْا أَنَّهُ بِالخَطِّ كانَ مُسَهِّلَا

Like your saying 'anbiʾhum' and 'nabbiʾhum.' And they transmitted that he was facilitating according to the script [rasm].

245. فَفِي الْيَا يَلِي والْوَاوِ وَالحَذْفِ رَسْمَهُ ... وَالاَخْفَشُ بَعْدَ الْكَسْرِ والضَّمِّ أَبْدَلَا

So in the yāʾ it follows, and the wāw, and the deletion, [each] according to its written form; and al-Akhfash, after the kasra and the ḍamma, substituted.

246. بِيَاءٍ وَعَنْهُ الْوَاوُ في عَكْسِهِ وَمَنْ ... حَكَى فِيهِمَا كَالْيَا وَكَالْوَاوِ أَعْضَلاَ

With a yāʾ — and from him the wāw in its opposite [case]; and whoever related concerning the two of them "like the yāʾ" and "like the wāw" made it knotty/hard.

247. وَمْسْتَهْزِءُونَ الْحَذْفُ فِيهِ وَنَحْوُهُ ... وَضَمٌّ وَكَسْرٌ قَبْلُ قِيلَ وَأُخْمِلاً

And "mustahziʾūn" — the deletion is in it and its like, with a ḍamma and a kasra before — it was said, and it was left obscure.

248. وَمَا فِيهِ يُلْفَى وَاسِطاً بِزَوَائِدٍ ... دَخَلْنَ عَلَيْهِ فِيهِ وَجْهَانِ أُعْمِلَا

And whatever is found in it set in the middle, with added [letters] that have entered upon it — in it there are two allowed ways put into practice.

249. كَمَا هَا وَيَا وَالَّلامِ وَالْبَا وَنَحْوِهَا ... وَلاَمَاتِ تَعْرِيفٍ لِمَنْ قَدْ تَأَمَّلَا

Such as the hāʾ, and the yāʾ, and the lām, and the bāʾ, and their like, and the lāms of the definite article — for whoever has pondered.

250. وَأَشْمِمْ وَرُمُ فِيمَا سِوى مُتَبَدِّلٍ ... بِهَا حَرْفَ مَدٍّ وَاعْرِفِ الْبَابَ مَحْفِلاً

And give "ishmām" and "rawm" in what is other than a [letter] changed by them into a letter of prolongation — and know this chapter as a gathering-place.

251. وَمَا وَاوٌ اَصْلِيٌّ تَسَكَّنَ قَبْلَهُ ... أوِ الْيَا فَعَنْ بَعْضٍ بِالاِدْغَامِ حُمِّلَا

And [as for] that whose original is a wāw made quiescent before it, or the yāʾ — then from some [reciters] it was carried by assimilation.

252. وَمَا قَبْلَهُ التَحْرِيكُ أَوْ أَلِفٌ مُحَرْ ... رَكاً طَرَفاً فَالْبَعْضُ بالرَّوْمِ سَهَّلَا

And that before which is the vowel, or a vowelled alif at the end, then some [reciters] eased it with "rawm."

253. وَمَنْ لَمْ يَرُمْ وَاعَتدَّ مَحْضاً سُكُونَهُ ... وَألْحَقَ مَفْتُوحاً فَقَدْ شَذَّ مُوغِلَا

And whoever did not apply "rawm" but counted its quiescence as pure, and attached to it a fatḥa — he has deviated, going to extremes.

254. وَفِي الْهَمْزِ أَنْحَاءٌ وَعِنْدَ نُحَاتِهِ ... يُضِيءُ سَنَاهُ كُلَّمَا اسْوَدَّ أَلْيَلَا

And in [the matter of] the hamza there are [various] manners, and in the view of its grammarians its radiance shines the more, whenever the darkest night grows black.

255. سأَذْكُرُ أَلْفَاظًا تَلِيهَا حُرُوفُهَا ... بالاِظْهَارِ وَالإدْغَامِ تُرْوىَ وَتُجْتَلَا

I will mention words followed by their letters — transmitted and revealed with iẓhār and idghām.

256. فَدُونَكَ إِذْ فِي بَيْتهَا وَحُرُوفَهَا ... وَمَا بَعْدُ بالتَقْييدِ قُدْهُ مُذَلَّلَا

So here is 'idh' in its verse and its letters — and what follows, lead it with restriction, subdued.

257. سَأُسْمِي وَبَعْدَ الْوَاوِ تَسْمُو حُرُوفُ مَنْ ... تَسَمَّى عَلَى سِيمَا تَرُوقُ مُقَبَّلَا

I will name [the words], and after the wāw [separator], the letters of the one named rise — upon a beautiful mark, kissed.

258. وَفِي دَالِ قَدْ أَيْضًا وَتَاءِ مُؤَنَّثٍ ... وَفِي هَلْ وَبَلْ فَاحْتَلْ بِذِهْنِكَ أَحْيَلَا

And in the dāl of 'qad' also, and the tāʾ of the feminine — and in 'hal' and 'bal.' So use your mind, most resourceful.

259. نَعَمْ إِذْ تَمَشَّتْ زَيْنَبٌ صَالَ دَلُّهَا ... سَمِيَّ جَمَالٍ وَاصِلاً مَنْ تَوَصَّلا

Yes, 'idh' walked Zaynab — her coquetry leapt, named for beauty, connecting whoever connected.

260. فإِظْهَارُهَا أجْرى دوَامَ نَسِيْمِهَا ... وَأَظْهَرَ رَيَّا قوْلِهِ وَاصِفٌ جَلَا

So her iẓhār flowed with the permanence of her breeze. And a describer revealed the fragrance of his speech, shining.

261. وَأَدْغَمَ ضَنْكاً وَاصِلٌ تُومَ دُرِّه ... وَأَدْغَمْ مُوْلَى وُجْدُهُ دائمٌ وَلَا

And he merged — tight — a connector, the twin of his pearl. And merge — a patron whose finding is permanent, and no [stopping].

262. وَقَدْ سَحَبَتْ ذيْلاً ضَفَا ظَلَّ زَرْنَبٌ ... جلَتْهُ صبَاهُ شاَئِقاً وَمُعَلَّلَا

And 'qad' dragged a hem — abundant — it lingered, Zarnab; his east-wind polished it, longingly, and entertained.

263. فَاظْهَرَهَا نَجمٌ بدَا دَلَّ وَاضِحاً ... وَأَدْغَمَ وَرْشٌ ضَرَّ ظمْآنَ وَامْتَلَا

So a star showed it (iẓhār), it appeared, it pointed clearly; and Warsh merged ['harmed'/'thirsty'] and was full.

264. وَأَدْغَمَ مُرْوٍ وَاكِفٌ ضَيْرَ ذَابِلٍ ... زَوَى ظِلَّهُ وَغْرٌ تَسَدَّاهُ كَلْكلَا

And a narrator merged, pouring down; harm of a withered one — its shade was folded, a hot one overtook it, a chest.

265. وَفِي حَرْفِ زَيَّنَا خِلاَفٌ وَمُظْهِرٌ ... هِشَامٌ بِصَادٍ حَرْفَهُ مُتَحمِّلَا

And in the word 'zayyannā' there is disagreement; and the one showing iẓhār is Hishām, with a ṣād — bearing its letter.

266. وَأَبْدَتْ سَنَا ثَغْرٍ صَفَتْ زُرْقُ ظَلْمِهِ ... جمَعْنَ وُرُوداً بَارِداً عَطِرَ الطِّلَا

And it revealed the radiance of a mouth, the blue of its luster clear; they gathered roses, cool, fragrant of dye.

267. فإِظْهَارُهُ دُرٌّ نَمَتْهُ بُدُورُهُ ... وَأَدْغَمَ وَرْشٌ ظَافِراً وَمُخَوِّلَا

So its iẓhār is a pearl that full-moons nurtured; and Warsh merged — victorious — and granting.

268. وَأَظْهَرَ كهْفٌ وَافِرٌ سَيْبُ جُودِهِ ... زَكيٌّ وَفيٌّ عُصْرَةً وَمُحَلَّلَا

And one showed iẓhār — a cave, abundant; the flow of his generosity is pure and loyal, a refuge, made lawful.

269. وَاظْهَرَ رَاوِيهِ هِشَامٌ لَهُدِّمَتْ ... وَفِي وَجَبَتْ خُلْفُ ابْنِ ذَكْوانَ يُفْتَلَا

And its narrator Hishām showed iẓhār in 'lahuddimat'; and in 'wajabat' there is a disagreement of Ibn Dhakwān to be twisted out.

270. أَلاَ بَلْ وَهَلْ تَرْوِي ثَنَا ظَعْنِ زَيْنَبٍ ... سَمِيرَ نَوَاهَا طِلْحَ ضُرٍ وَمُبْتَلَا

Indeed — 'bal' and 'hal': do you relate the praise of Zaynab's departure? — companion of her distance, an acacia of harm, and afflicted.

271. فَأَدْغَمَهَا رَاوٍ وَأَدْغَمَ فَاضِلٌ ... وَقُورٌ ثنَاهُ سَرَّ تَيْماً وَقَدْ حَلَا

So a narrator merged it, and a virtuous one merged; dignified — his praise delighted Tayman — and it became sweet.

272. وَبَلْ فِي النِّسَا خَلاَّدُهُمْ بِخِلاَفِهِ ... وَفِي هَلْ تَرَى الإدْغَامُ حُبَّ وَحُمِّلَا

And 'bal' in al-Nisāʾ — their Khallād with disagreement in it; and in 'hal tarā' the idghām is beloved and was carried.

273. وَأَظْهِرْ لَدَى وَاعٍ نَبِيلٍ ضَمَانُهُ ... وَفِي الرَّعْدِ هَلْ وَاسْتَوْفِ لاَ زَاجِراً هَلاُ

And show iẓhār with an attentive, noble one whose guarantee is sure; and in al-Raʿd 'hal' — and fulfil it — no, [a wāw] not driven off; come.

274. وَلاَ خُلفَ فِي الإِدْغَامِ إِذْ ذَلَّ ظاَلِمٌ ... وَقَدْ تيَّمَتْ دَعْدٌ وَسِيماً تَبَتَّلَا

And there is no disagreement in idghām: 'idh dhalla ẓālimun' and 'qad tayyamat Daʿdun' — beautifully, wholly devoted.

275. وَقَامَتْ تُرِيْهِ دُمْيَةٌ طِيْبَ وَصْفِهَا ... وَقُلْ بَلْ وَهَلْ رَاهَا لَبِيْبٌ وَيَعْقِلَا

And [she] stood, showing him a doll — the fragrance of her description. And say: 'bal' and 'hal' — a wise one saw her and understood.

276. وَمَا أَوْلُ الْمِثْلَينِ فِيهِ مُسَكَّنٌ ... فَلاَ بُدَّ مِنْ إِدْغَامِهِ مُتَمَثِّلاَ

And whatever [has] the first of two identical letters in it being sākin — there must be idghām of it, following the rule.

277. وَإِدْغَامُ بَاءِ الْجَزْمِ فِي الْفَاءٍ قَدْ رَسَا ... حَمِيداً وَخَيِّرْ فِي يَتُبْ قاَصِداً وَلَا

And the idghām of the bāʾ of jazm into the fāʾ has settled — praised. And give a choice in 'yatub' — intending, and not [forcing].

278. وَمَعْ جَزْمِهِ يَفْعَلْ بِذَلِكَ سَلَّمُوا ... وَنَخْسِفْ بِهِمْ رَاعَوْا وَشَذَّا تَثَقُّلاً

And with his jazm, 'yafʿal bidhālika' — they agreed. And 'nakhsif bihim' — they observed. And [the two cases of] anomalous heaviness.

279. وَعُذْتُ عَلَى إِدْغَامِهِ وَنَبَذْتُهاَ ... شَوَاهِدُ حَمَّادٍ وَأَورِثْتُمُوا حَلَا

And "ʿudhtu" [is recited] with its assimilation, and "nabadhtuhā" — the testimonies of Ḥammād; and "ūrithtumū" [is recited] sweetly.

280. لَهُ شَرْعُهُ وَالرَّاءُ جَزْماً بِلاَمِهاَ ... كَوَاصِبرْ لِحُكْمِ طالَ بُالْخُلْفُ يَذْبُلَا

To it belongs its prescription; and the rāʾ when made jussive together with its lām, as in "wa-ṣbir li-ḥukmi" — "ṭāla" — with the difference of opinion, [as in] "yadhbula."

281. وَيَاسِيْنَ أَظْهِرْ عنْ فَتًى حَقُهُ بَدَا ... وَنُونَ وَفيهِ الْخُلْفُ عَنْ وَرْشِهِمْ خَلَا

And "Yā Sīn" — pronounce its [nūn] clearly, by [the cipher] "fatan ḥaqquhu badā," and "Nūn"; and in it is the difference of opinion concerning their Warsh — it remained [optional].

282. وَحِرْمِيُّ نَصْرٍ صَادَ مَرْيَمَ مَنْ يُرِدْ ... ثَوَابَ لَبِثْتَ الْفَرْدَ وَالجَمْعُ وَصَّلَا

And the Ḥaramī of victory — the ṣād of Maryam, 'man yurid thawāba,' 'labithtum' singular and plural — connected.

283. وَطاسِيْنَ عِنْدَ الْمِيْمِ فَازَ اتَخَذْتُمْ ... أَخَذْتُمْ وَفِي الإِفْرَادِ عاشَرَ دَغْفَلَا

And "Ṭā Sīn" before the mīm — "fāza," "ittakhadhtum," "akhadhtum," and in the singular case "ʿāshara daghfalā."

284. وَفِي ارْكَبْ هُدَى بَرٍّ قَرِيبٍ بِخُلْفِهِمْ ... كَمَا ضاَعَ جاَ يَلْهَثْ لَهُ دَارِ جُهَّلَا

And in "irkab," "hudan," "barrin," "qarībin," with the difference of opinion among them, as in "ḍāʿa," "jāʾa," "yalhath" — to it belongs "dāri juhhalā."

285. وَقَالُونُ ذُو خُلْفٍ وَفِي الْبَقَرَهْ فَقُلْ ... يُعَذِّبْ دَنَا بِالْخُلْفِ جَوْداً وَمُوبِلَا

And Qālūn is one of difference of opinion; and in al-Baqara say "yuʿadhdhib" — "danā" — with the difference of opinion, [as in] "jawdan wa-mūbilā."

286. وَكُلُّهُمُ التَّنْوينَ وَالنُّونَ أَدْغَمُوا ... بِلاَ غُنَّةٍ فِي اللاَّمِ وَالرَّا لِيَجْمُلَا

And all of them merged the tanwīn and the nūn [sākinah] — without ghunnah — into the lām and the rāʾ, for beauty.

287. وَكُلٌّ بِيَنْمُو أَدْغَمُوا مَعَ غُنَّةٍ ... وَفِي الْوَاوِ وَالْيَا دُونَهَا خَلَفٌ تَلَا

And all merged with ghunnah into [the letters of] 'yanmū.' And in the wāw and the yāʾ, without it [ghunnah], Khalaf recited.

288. وَعِنْدَهُمَا لِلكُلِّ أَظْهِرْ بِكِلْمَةٍ ... مَخَافَةَ إِشْبَاهِ الْمُضَاعَفِ أَثْقَلَا

And at [wāw and yāʾ], for all, show [iẓhār] within a [single] word — out of fear of resembling the doubled [mushaddad], making it heavier.

289. وَعِنْدَ حُرُوفِ الْحَلْقِ لِلكُلِ أُظْهِرَا ... أَلاَ هاَجَ حُكْمٌ عَمَّ خاَلِيْهِ غُفَّلَا

And at the throat letters, for all, [nūn/tanwīn] is shown [iẓhār]. Indeed, a ruling stirred that covered its two empty [negligent] ones.

290. وَقَلْبُهُمَا مِيْماً لَدَى الْبَا وَأَخْفِيَا ... عَلَى غُنَّةٍ عِنْدَ الْبَوَاقِي لِيَكْمُلَا

And converting both into mīm at the bāʾ. And they are hidden [ikhfāʾ] with ghunnah at the remaining [15 letters], to complete.

291. وَحَمْزَةُ مِنْهُمْ وَالْكِسَائِيُّ بَعْدَهُ ... أَمَالاَ ذَوَاتِ الْياَءِ حَيْثُ تأَصَّلَا

And Ḥamzah among them, and al-Kisāʾī after him — they tilted [imālah] the alifs derived from yāʾ, wherever it was established.

292. وَتَثْنِيَةُ الأَسْماءِ تَكْشِفُهَا وَإِنْ ... رَدَدْتَ إِلَيْكَ الْفِعْلَ صَادَفْتَ مَنْهلَا

And the dual of nouns reveals it [whether the alif is from yāʾ or wāw]. And if you return the verb to yourself, you find a source.

293. هَدَى وَاشْتَرَاهُ وَالْهَوَى وَهُدَاهُمُ ... وَفِي أَلِفِ التَّأْنِيثِ فِي الْكُلِّ مَيَّلَا

Hudā, ishtarāhu, al-hawā, hudāhum — and in the alif of feminization, in all [cases], he tilted.

294. وَكَيْفَ جَرَتْ فَعْلَى فَفِيهَا وُجُودُهَا ... وَإِنْ ضُمَّ أَوْ يُفْتَحْ فَعَالَى فَحَصِّلَا

However the pattern faʿlā occurs, imālah is found in it; and if the fāʾ is given ḍammah or the form faʿālā is opened (fatḥ on the first), then take note (ḥaṣṣilā).

295. وَفِي اسْمٍ فِي الاِستِفْهَامِ أَنَّى وَفِي مَتَى ... مَعاً وَعَسَى أَيْضاً أَمَالاَ وَقُلْ بَلَى

And in the noun used in interrogation "annā", and in "matā" — both — and likewise "ʿasā" — they two imālah-ed (amālā); and say (the same for) "balā".

296. وَمَا رَسَمُوا بالْيَاءِ غَيْرَ لَدَى وَمَا ... زَكَى وَإِلَى مِنْ بَعْدُ حَتَّى وَقُلْ عَلَى

And whatever they wrote (in the muṣḥaf) with yāʾ — except لَدَى, and مَا زَكَى, and إِلَى, then after that حَتَّى, and say عَلَى.

297. وَكُلُّ ثُلاَثِيٍّ يَزِيْدُ فَإِنَّهُ ... مُمَالٌ كَزَكَّاهَا وَأَنْجَى مَعَ ابْتَلَى

And every trilateral (root) that is augmented — it is imālah-ed (mumāl), like زَكَّاهَا, and أَنْجَى, together with ابْتَلَى.

298. وَلَكِنَّ أَحْيَا عَنْهُمَا بَعْدَ وَاوِهِ ... وَفِيمَا سَوَاهُ لِلكِسَائِيِّ مُيِّلاً

But أَحْيَا — from the two of them (ʿanhumā) after its wāw; and in what is other than it, it is imālah-ed for al-Kisāʾī (li-l-Kisāʾī).

299. وَرُءْيَايَ وَالرءُيَا وَمَرْضَاتِ كَيْفَمَا ... أَتَى وَخَطَايَا مِثْلُهُ مُتَقَبَّلاً

And رُؤْيَايَ, and الرُّؤْيَا, and مَرْضَاتِ — however it comes — and خَطَايَا, the like of it, (is) accepted (mutaqabbalā).

300. وَمَحْيَاهُمُو أَيْضًا وَحَقَّ تُقَاتِهِ ... وَفِي قَدْ هَدَانِي لَيْسَ أمْرُكَ مُشْكِلَا

And مَحْيَاهُمُ likewise, and حَقَّ تُقَاتِهِ; and in قَدْ هَدَانِي — your matter is not problematic (mushkilā).

301. وَفِي الْكَهْفِ أَنْسَانِيْ وَمِنْ قَبْلُ جَاءَ مَنْ ... عَصَانِيْ وَأَوْصَانِيْ بِمَرْيَمَ يُجْتَلَا

And in al-Kahf أَنْسَانِيْ, and before it came مَنْ عَصَانِيْ, and أَوْصَانِيْ in Maryam — it is made manifest (yujtalā).

302. وَفِيهَا وَفِي طَاسِيْنَ آتَانِيَ الَّذِي ... أَذَعْتُ بِهِ حَتَّى تَضَوَّعَ مَنْدَلَا

And in it (Maryam) and in Ṭā-Sīn (al-Naml) آتَانِيَ — that which I have spread abroad until it diffused (like) mandal-incense.

303. وَحَرَفُ تَلاَهَا مَعْ طَحَاهَا وَفِي سَجَى ... وَحَرْفُ دَحَاهَا وَهْيَ بِالْوَاوِ تُبْتَلَا

And the word تَلَاهَا together with طَحَاهَا, and in سَجَى, and the word دَحَاهَا — and it (the alif) is "afflicted/tested" by being of wāw-origin (bi-l-wāw tubtalā).

304. وَأَمَّا ضُحَاهَا وَالضُّحَى وَالرِّبا مَعَ الْـ ... قُوَى فَأَمَالاَهَا وَبِالْوَاوِ تُخْتَلَا

305. وَرُؤيَاكَ مَعْ مَثْوَايَ عَنْهُ لِحَفْصِهِمْ ... وَمَحْيَايَ مِشْكَاةٍ هُدَايَ قَدِ انجَلَا

And رُؤْيَاكَ together with مَثْوَايَ — from him, for their Ḥafṣ (li-Ḥafṣihim); and مَحْيَايَ, مِشْكَاةٍ, هُدَايَ — it has become clear (qad-injalā).

And they gave tafkhīm to the tanwīn at waqf, and they did tarqīq; and their tafkhīm in the accusative (al-naṣb) is more comprehensive and inclusive (ajmaʿu ashmulā).

338. مُسَمَّى وَمَوْلًى رَفْعُهُ مَعْ جَرِّهِ ... وَمَنْصُوبُهُ غُزَّى وَتَتْرًا تَزَيَّلَا

Or the kasrah — and sukūn is not a barrier. And it weakens after fatḥah and ḍammah — [this is] most likely.

342. لَعِبْرَهْ مِائَهْ وِجْهَهْ وَلَيْكَهْ وَبَعْضُهُمْ ... سِوى أَلِفٍ عِنْدَ الْكِسَائِيِّ مَيَّلَا

'Laʿibrah,' 'miʾah,' 'wijhah,' 'laykah' — and some [of his students], except [after] alif, tilted for al-Kisāʾī.

And he [Warsh] did not regard a sākin [letter] after a kasrah as a barrier — except an istiʿlāʾ letter, [and] except the khāʾ — and so [the rule] was completed.

345. وَفَخَّمَهَا في الأَعْجَمِيِّ وَفِي إِرَمْ ... وَتَكْرِيرِهَا حَتَّى يُرى مُتَعَدِّلَا

And he [Warsh] made it thick in the foreign (aʿjamī) word and in 'Iram', and in its repetition (takrīr), until it is seen balanced/even.

346. وَتَفْخِيمُهُ ذِكْرًا وَسِتْرًا وَبَابَهُ ... لَدى جِلَّةِ الأَصْحَابِ أَعْمَرُ أَرْحُلَا

And his [Warsh's] tafkhīm of 'dhikran', 'sitran' and their category is, in the view of the eminent companions/transmitters, the more populated (i.e. more widely followed) path.

347. وَفي شَرَرٍ عَنْهُ يُرَقِّقُ كُلُّهُمْ ... وَحَيْرَانَ بِالتَّفْخِيمِ بَعْضٌ تَقَبَّلَا

And in 'shararin' — from him [Warsh] — all of them thin [it]; and 'ḥayrāna' with tafkhīm some accepted.

348. وَفي الرَّاءِ عَنْ وَرْشٍ سِوَى مَا ذَكَرْتُهُ ... مَذَاهِبُ شَذَّتْ فِي الأَدَاءِ تَوَقُّلَا

And regarding the rāʾ — from Warsh — besides what I have mentioned, there are doctrines that are anomalous (shādhdh) in performance, [if one] climbs into them.

349. وَلاَ بُدَّ مِنْ تَرْقِيِقِهاَ بَعْدَ كَسْرَةٍ ... إِذَا سَكَنَتْ ياَ صَاحِ لِلسَّبْعَةِ المَلا

And there is no escaping thinning it after a kasrah when it is sākin — O companion! — for the seven, the eminent assembly.

350. وَمَا حَرْفُ الاِسْتِعْلاَءُ بَعْدُ فَرَاؤُهُ ... لِكُلِّهِمُ التَّفْخِيمُ فِيهاَ تَذَلَّلَا

And that after which is an istiʿlāʾ letter — its rāʾ, for all of them, tafkhīm in it is made easy/submits.

351. وَيَجْمَعُهاَ قِظْ خُصَّ ضَغْطٍ وَخُلْفُهُمْ ... بِفِرْقٍ جَرى بَيْنَ المَشَايِخِ سَلْسَلَا

And 'qiẓ khuṣṣa ḍaghṭin' gathers them [the istiʿlāʾ letters]; and their disagreement is in 'firqin', flowing among the shaykhs, chained [in transmission].

352. وَمَا بَعْدَ كَسْرٍ عَارِضٍ أَوْ مُفَصَّلٍ ... فَفَخِّمْ فَهذاَ حُكْمُهُ مُتَبَذِّلاَ

And that which is after an incidental (ʿāriḍ) kasrah or a separated [kasrah] — then make [it] thick; for this is its ruling, plainly/freely given.

353. وَمَا بَعْدَهُ كَسْرٌ أَوِ الْيَا فَمَا لَهُمْ ... بِتَرْقِيقِهِ نَصٌّ وَثِيقٌ فَيَمْثُلَا

And that after which is a kasrah or the yāʾ — then they have no firm text for thinning it, that it might be patterned [on the rule].

354. وَمَا لِقِيَاسٍ فِي الْقِرَاءة مَدْخَلٌ ... فَدُونَكَ مَا فِيهِ الرِّضاَ مُتَكَفِّلَا

And analogy (qiyās) has no entry into recitation — so take what guarantees [your] contentment in it.

355. وَتَرْقِيقُهاَ مَكْسُورَةً عِنْدَ وَصْلِهِمْ ... وَتَفْخِيمُهاَ في الْوَقْفِ أَجْمَعُ أَشْمُلَا

And thinning it when it is kasrah-vowelled at their waṣl (connection), and thickening it at the waqf (pause) is more comprehensive and more encompassing.

356. وَلكِنَّهَا في وَقْفِهِمْ مَعَ غَيْرِهاَ ... تُرَقَّقُ بَعْدَ الْكَسْرِ أَوْ مَا تَمَيَّلَا

But it, in their waqf, together with other [cases], is thinned after the kasrah, or [after] what is subject to imālah (mā tamayyala).

357. أَوِ الْيَاء تَأْتِي بِالسُّكُونِ وَرَوْمُهُمْ ... كَمَا وَصْلِهِمْ فَابْلُ الذَّكَاءَ مُصَقَّلَا

Or [when] the yāʾ comes with sukūn; and their rawm is like their waṣl — so test your sharp intellect, [well-]polished.

358. وَفِيماَ عَدَا هذَا الَّذِي قَدْ وَصَفْتُهُ ... عَلَى الأَصْلِ بِالتَّفْخِيمِ كُنْ مُتَعَمِّلَا

And in whatever lies beyond this which I have described — upon the default (al-aṣl), with tafkhīm, be acting/relying.

359. وَغَلَّظَ وَرْشٌ فَتْحَ لاَمٍ لِصَادِهاَ ... أَوِ الطَّاءِ أَوْ لِلظَّاءِ قَبْلُ تَنَزُّلَا

And Warsh thickened the fatḥah of a lām [when it comes] after ṣād, ṭāʾ, or ẓāʾ before it — [this] descended.

360. إِذَا فُتِحَتْ أَوْ سُكِّنَتْ كَصَلاتِهِمْ ... وَمَطْلَعِ أَيْضًا ثمَّ ظَلَّ وَيُوصَلَا

When [those preceding letters] have fatḥah or sukūn — like 'ṣalātihim,' 'maṭlaʿ' also, then 'ẓalla' — and it is connected.

361. وَفي طَالَ خُلْفٌ مَعْ فِصَالاً وَعِنْدَماَ ... يُسَكَّنُ وَقْفاً وَالمُفَخَّمُ فُضِّلَا

And in "ṭāla" there is a difference of opinion, together with "fiṣālan," and when it is made quiescent in pausing — and the thickened (mufakhkham) form is preferred.

362. وَحُكْمُ ذَوَاتِ الْياَءِ مِنْهاَ كَهذِهِ ... وَعِنْدَ رُءُوسِ الآيِ تَرْقِيقُهاَ اعْتَلَا

And the ruling of the [words] with yāʾ from them is like this one; and at the verse-endings (heads of the verses) their thinning (tarqīq) has risen high.

363. وَكُلٌّ لَدَى اسْمِ اللهِ مِنْ بَعْدِ كَسْرَةٍ ... يُرَقِّقُهَا حَتَّى يَرُوقَ مُرَتَّلَا

And everyone, at the name of God after a kasra, thins it, so that it becomes pleasing when chanted with tartīl.

364. كَمَا فَخَّمُوهُ بَعْدَ فَتْحٍ وَضَمَّةٍ ... فَتَمَّ نِظَامُ الشَّمْلِ وَصْلاً وَفَيْصَلَا

Just as they thickened it after a fatḥa and a ḍamma; so the order of the gathering was complete, in joining and as a decisive division.

365. وَالاِسْكَانُ أَصْلُ الْوَقْفِ وَهْوَ اشْتِقَاقُهُ ... مِنَ الْوَقْفِ عَنْ تَحْرِيكِ حَرْفٍ تَعَزَّلَا

And sukūn is the basis of waqf — it is its derivation: from stopping the voweling of a letter, withdrawing.

366. وَعِنْدَ أَبِي عَمْرٍو وَكُوفِيِّهِمْ بِهِ ... مِنَ الرَّوْمِ وَالإِشْمَامِ سَمْتٌ تَجَمَّلَا

And for Abū ʿAmr and the Kūfan reciters — with it [waqf] comes rawm and ishmām, a dignified adornment.

367. وَأَكْثَرُ أَعْلاَمِ الْقُرَانِ يَرَاهُما ... لِسَائِرِهِمْ أَوْلَى الْعَلاَئِقِ مِطْوَلاَ

And most of the proper names of the Qurʾān — he sees them both [thus]; for the rest of them the better course of attachments is [given] at length.

368. وَرَوْمُكَ إِسْمَاعُ المُحَرَّكِ وَاقِفًا ... بِصَوْتٍ خَفِيٍّ كُلَّ دَانٍ تَنَوَّلَا

And your "rawm" is making the vowelled [letter] heard while pausing, with a faint sound — every near one attained it.

369. وَالاِشْمَامُ إِطْبَاقُ الشِّفَاهِ بُعَيْدَ مَا ... يُسَكَّنُ لاَ صَوْتٌ هُنَاكَ فَيَصْحَلَا

And "ishmām" is the closing of the lips just after [the letter] is made quiescent — there is no sound there that it should be made harsh/raspy.

370. وَفِعْلُهُماَ في الضَّمِّ وَالرَّفْعِ وَارِدٌ ... وَرَوْمُكَ عِنْدَ الْكَسْرِ وَالْجَرِّ وُصِّلَا

And the doing of the two of them comes in the ḍamma and the nominative; and your "rawm" at the kasra and the genitive has been joined [as the rule].

371. وَلَمْ يَرَهُ في الْفَتْحِ وَالنَّصْبِ قَارِئٌ ... وَعِنْدَ إِمَامِ النَّحْوِ في الْكُلِّ أُعْمِلَا

And no reciter applied it [rawm] in the fatḥa and the accusative; but in the view of the imām of grammar it is applied in all [cases].

372. وَمَا نُوِّعَ التَّحْرِيكُ إِلاَّ لِلاَزِمٍ ... بِنَاءً وَإِعْرَاباً غَداَ مُتَنَقِّلَا

And the vocalization is varied only for that which is fixed in structure (bināʾ) and inflection (iʿrāb) — [the variable] has become shifting.

373. وَفي هَاءِ تَأْنِيثٍ وَمِيمِ الْجَمِيعِ قُلْ ... وَعَارِضِ شَكْلٍ لَمْ يَكُوناَ لِيَدْخُلَا

And concerning the tāʾ of the feminine, and the mīm of the plural, say — and an incidental vocalization — they were not [such] as to enter [the rule].

374. وَفي الْهَاءِ لِلإِضْمَارِ قَوْمٌ أَبَوْهُمَا ... وَمِنْ قَبْلِهِ ضَمٌّ أَوِ الْكَسْرُ مُثِّلَا

And concerning the hāʾ of the pronoun a group refused the two of them, and before it a ḍamma or the kasra was set as a model.

375. أَوُ امَّاهُمَا وَاوٌ وَيَاءٌ وَبَعْضُهُمْ ... يُرَى لَهُمَا فِي كُلِّ حَالٍ مُحَلِّلَا

Or [if] their pre-letter is a wāw or a yāʾ — and some of them is seen, for the two of them, in every case to make it permissible.

376. وَكُوفِيُّهُمْ وَالْمَازِنِيُّ وَنَافِعٌ ... عُنُوا بِاتَّبَاعِ الْخَطِّ فِي وَقْفِ الاِبْتِلَا

And the Kūfans and al-Māzinī and Nāfiʿ — they took care to follow the script [rasm] when stopping as a test.

377. وَلاِبْنِ كَثِيٍر يُرْتَضَى وَابْنِ عَامِرٍ ... وَمَا اخْتَلَفُوا فِيهِ حَرٍ أَنْ يُفَصَّلَا

And for Ibn Kathīr — (it) is approved — and Ibn ʿĀmir; and what they differed about regarding it, it is fitting (ḥarīy) that it be detailed/distinguished.

378. إِذَا كُتِبَتْ بِالتَّاءِ هَاءُ مُؤَنَّثٍ ... فَبِالْهَاءِ قِفْ حَقَّا رِضًى وَمُعَوِّلَا

When the hāʾ of the feminine (tāʾ marbūṭa) is written with an (open) tāʾ, then stop with hāʾ — truly (ḥaqqan), being pleased and relied upon.

379. وَفي اللاَّتَ مَعْ مَرْضَاتِ مَعْ ذَاتَ بَهْجَةٍ ... وَلاَتَ رِضًى هَيْهَاتَ هَادِيِه رُفِّلَا

And in al-Lāta, with marḍāt, with dhāta bahjatin, and lāta — being approved — hayhāta; their guide is adorned/draped.

380. وَقِفْ يَا أَبَهْ كُفْؤًا دَنَا وَكَأَيِّنِ الْـ ... وُقُوفُ بِنُونٍ وَهْوَ بِالْيَاءِ حُصِّلَا

And stop on yā abah (yā abati), kufuʾan being near; and ka-ayyin — the stops are with nūn, while it (also) with yāʾ has been attained.

381. وَمَالِ لَدَى الْفُرْقَانِ وَالْكَهْفِ وَالنِّسَا ... وَسَالَ عَلَى مَا حَجَّ وَالْخُلْفُ رُتِّلَا

And mā-li in al-Furqān, al-Kahf, and al-Nisāʾ; and sāla — upon what is most reasoned (ḥajja) — and the disagreement is set out in order.

382. وَيَا أَيُّهَا فَوْقَ الدُّخَانِ وَأَيُّهَا ... لَدَى النُّورِ وَالرِّحْمنِ رَافَقْنَ حُمَّلاَ

And yā ayyuhā above (before) al-Dukhān, and ayyuhā at al-Nūr and al-Raḥmān — they accompanied, being carried/laden.

And in the hāʾ — by way of assimilation (itbāʿ) — Ibn ʿĀmir gave ḍamma, at the connection (waṣl) and (following) the rasm in them, most distinctly.

384. وَقِفْ وَيْكَأَنَّهْ وَيْكَأَنَّ بِرَسْمِهِ ... وَبِالْيَاءِ قِفْ رِفْقًا وَبِالْكَافِ حُلِّلَا

And stop (on) waykaʾannah, waykaʾanna by its rasm; and with the yāʾ stop gently, and with the kāf it is permitted (allowed).

And in mah and mimmah stop, and ʿammah, limah, bimah — with disagreement (khulf) from al-Bazzī; and repel the one who feigns ignorance.

The yāʾ of possession is not the lām [final radical] of the verb, nor is it from the root letters themselves — so it may cause confusion.

388. وَلكِنَّهَا كالْهَاءِ وَالْكَافِ كُلُّ مَا ... تَلِيهِ يُرى لِلْهَاءِ وَالْكَافِ مَدْخَلَا

But it (the yāʾ of iḍāfah) is like the hāʾ and the kāf (pronouns); everything that follows it — there is seen for the hāʾ and the kāf an entry-point (i.e., the same treatment applies).

389. وَفي مِائَتَيْ ياَءٍ وَعَشْرٍ مُنِيفَةٍ ... وَثِنْتَيْنِ خُلْفُ الْقَوْمِ أَحْكِيهِ مُجْمَلَا

391. فَأَرْنِي وَتَفْتِنِّي اتَّبِعْنِي سُكُونُهاَ ... لِكُلٍ وَتَرْحَمْنِي أَكُنْ وَلَقَدْ جَلَا

So 'arnī', 'taftinnī', 'attabiʿnī' — their silencing (iskān) is for all (لِكُلٍّ); and 'tarḥamnī' — 'akun' (mark)… and indeed it became clear.

392. ذَرُونِيَ وَادْعُونِيْ اذْكُرُونِيَ فَتْحُهاَ ... دَوَاءٌ وَأَوْزِعْنِي مَعاً جَادَ هُطَّلَا

And two yāʾs in 'ijʿal lī', and four — since 'ḥamat' (its guidance) — and 'lākinnī', therein two are entrusted.

396. وَتَحْتِي وَقُلْ في هُودَ إِنِّي أَرَاكُمُو ... وَقُلْ فَطَرَنْ في هُودَ هَادِيِهِ أَوْصَلَا

And 'taḥtī', and say in Hūd 'innī arākum', and say 'faṭaranī' in Hūd — its guide connected (it).

399. عِمَادٌ وَتَحْتَ النَّمْلِ عِنْدِيَ حُسْنُهُ ... إِلَى دُرِّهِ بِالْخُلْفِ وَافَقَ مُوهَلَا

'ʿImād'; and under (Sūrat) al-Naml 'ʿindī' — its goodness; to its 'durr' with khulf (variant) it agreed…

400. وثِنْتَانِ مَعْ خَمْسِينَ مَعْ كَسْرِ هَمْزَةٍ ... بِفتْحٍ أُولِي حُكْمٍ سِوَى مَا تَعَزَّلَا

And two with fifty (yāʾs) along with the kasr of a hamza, by fatḥ — the people of judgement — except what was set apart.

And ḥuznī (Q12:86 'my grief') and tawfīqī (Q11:88 'my success'): [the word] ẓilāl ['shade/canopy'?]; and all of them [recite] yuṣaddiqunī (Q28:34 'confirms me'), anẓirnī ('reprieve me'), wa-akhkhartanī ('You delayed me') up to —

And in waṣl [only]: Ḥammād, Shakūr, his imam; and their total is sixty-two, so understand.

423. فَيَسْرِي إِلى الدَّاعِ الْجَوَارِ المُنَادِ يَهْـ ... ـدِيَنْ يُؤْتِيَنْ مَعْ أَنْ تُعَلِّمَنِي وِلَا

And I hope for His [help] in arranging their letters — precious necklaces that give relief to the barren.

444. سَأَمِضي عَلَى شَرْطِي وَبِاللهِ أَكْتَفِي وَماَ خَابَ ذُو جِدٍّ إِذَا هُوَ حَسْبَلَا

I will proceed upon my condition, and in God I find sufficiency. Never was a person of diligence disappointed when he said 'ḥasbuya Allāh' [God suffices me].

445. وَمَا يَخْدَعُونَ الْفَتْحُ مِنْ قَبْلِ سَاكِنٍ ... وَبَعْدُ ذَكَا وَالْغَيْرُ كَالْحَرْفِ أَوَّلَا

'Qīla,' 'ghīḍa,' 'jīʾa' — he does ishmām of their kasrah [mixing in] ḍammah. Men [do this], to complete.

'Ḥīla' with ishmām, 'sīqa' as established, 'sīʾa' and 'sīʾat' — its narrator was nobler.

450. وَثُمَّ هْوَ رِفْقًا بَانَ وَالضَّمُّ غَيْرُهُمُ ... وَكَسْرٌ وَعَنْ كُلٍّ يُمِلَّ هُوَ انْجَلَا

And 'thumma hwa' gently became clear. And ḍammah [is for] the others, and kasrah. And from all, 'yumill huwa' became clear.

And 'Ādam' — raise [it], making 'kalimātihi' accusative with kasrah. And for the Makkī [Ibn Kathīr], the reverse is adopted.

453. وَيُقْبَلُ الاُولى أَنَّثُوا دُونَ حَاجِزٍ ... وَعَدْنَا جَمِيعاً دُونَ مَا أَلِفَ حَلَا

And 'yuqbalu' the first — they feminized it without barrier. And 'waʿadnā' all of them — without the alif, it became sweet.

454. وَإِسْكَانُ بَارِئْكُمْ وَيَأْمُرُكُمْ لَهُ ... وَيَأْمُرُهُمْ أَيْضاً وَتَأْمُرُهُمْ تَلَا

And 'yanṣurukum' also, and 'yushʿirukum' — and how much noble [recitation] from al-Dūrī, snatching [the vowel], became clear.

And with ghayb, 'ʿammā taʿmalūn' here drew near. And your ghayb in the second — to its purity it guided.

463. خَطِيئَتُهُ التَّوْحِيدُ عَنْ غَيْرِ نَافِعٍ ... وَلاَ يَعْبُدُونَ الْغَيْبُ شَايَعَ دُخْلُلَا

When they say the takbīr at the end of [Sūrat] al-Nās, they follow [it] with the basmala together with al-Ḥamd [al-Fātiḥa], up to "al-mufliḥūn," as a means of seeking nearness.

1128. وَقَالَ بِهِ الْبَزِّيُّ مِنْ آخِرِ الضُّحَى ... وَبَعْضٌ لَهُ مِنْ آخِرِ اللَّيْلِ وَصَّلَا

And al-Bazzī said it [the takbīr] from the end of [Sūrat] al-Ḍuḥā [onward], and some [traced] it for him from the end of al-Layl, [thus] connected.

1129. فَإِنْ شِئْتَ فَاقْطَعْ دُونَهُ أَوْ عَلَيْهِ أَوْ ... صِلِ الْكُلَّ دُونَ الْقَطْعِ مَعْهُ مُبَسْمِلَا

So if you wish, then break [the recitation] before it, or upon it, or join the whole without breaking, [doing it] together with the basmala.

1130. وَمَا قَبْلَهُ مِنْ سَاكِنٍ أَوْ مُنَوَّنٍ ... فَلِلسَّاكِنَيْنِ اكْسِرْهُ فِي الْوَصْلِ مُرْسَلَا

And whatever is before it [the takbīr] of a quiescent letter or a nunated one — then, on account of the two quiescents, put it in the kasra in joining, set free.

1131. وَأَدْرِجْ عَلَى إِعْرَابِهِ مَا سِوَاهُمَا ... وَلاَ تَصِلَنْ هَاءَ الضَّمِيرِ لِتُوصَلاَ

And carry on according to its inflection whatever is other than the two of them; and do not connect the hāʾ of the pronoun so as to be joined.

1132. وَقُلْ لَفْظُهُ اللهُ أَكْبَرْ وَقَبْلَهُ ... لَأَحْمَدَ زَادَ ابْنُ الْحُبَابِ فَهَلَّلَا

And say its wording [as] "Allāhu akbar"; and before it "lā ilāha illā llāh" Aḥmad — Ibn al-Ḥubāb added — and so he uttered the tahlīl.

1133. وَقِيلَ بِهذَا عَنْ أَبِي الْفَتْحِ فَارِسٍ ... وَعَنْ قُنْبُلٍ بَعْضٌ بِتَكْبِيرِهِ تَلَا

And this was said on the authority of Abū l-Fatḥ Fāris, and on the authority of Qunbul some [reciter] followed with his [version of] the takbīr.

1134. وَهَاكَ مَوَازِينَ الْحُرُوفِ وَمَا حَكَى ... جَهَابِذَةُ النُّقَّادِ فِيهاَ مُحَصَّلَا

Here are the scales [standards] of the letters, and what the master critics have related about them, gathered and verified.

1135. وَلاَ رِيَبةٌ فِي عَيْنِهِنَّ وَلاَ رِبَا ... وَعِنْدَ صَلِيلِ الزَّيْفِ يَصْدُقُ الاِبْتِلَا

And there is no doubt concerning their essence [the letters'], nor [is there] usury [increase]; and at the ringing of base coin the trial proves truthful.

1136. وَلاَ بُدَّ فِي تَعْيِينِهِنَّ مِنَ الأُولَى ... عُنُوا بِالْمَعانِيْ عَامِلِيْنَ وَقُوَّلا

And in specifying them [the letters] there is no escape from the first [matter]: they have concerned themselves with the meanings, working and speaking [of them].

1137. فَابْدَأْ مِنْهاَ بِالْمَخَارِجِ مُرْدِفاً ... لَهُنَّ بِمَشْهُورِ الصِّفَاتِ مُفَصِّلَا

So begin with them by [treating] the points of articulation (makhārij), following them up with the well-known attributes (ṣifāt), in detail.

1138. ثَلاَثٌ بِأَقْصَى الْحَلْقِ وَاثْنانِ وَسْطَهُ ... وَحَرْفَانِ مِنْهاَ أَوَّلَ الْحَلْقِ جُمِّلَا

Three [letters] at the deepest part of the throat, and two its middle, and two letters of it at the front of the throat were brought together.

1139. وَحَرْفٌ لَهُ أَقْصَى اللِّسَانِ وَفَوْقَهْ ... مِنَ الْحَنَكِ احْفَظْهُ وَحَرْفٌ بِأَسْفَلَا

And a letter has its place at the rear of the tongue and above it from the palate — memorize it — and a letter [is articulated] at its lowest part.

1140. وَوَسْطُهُمَا مِنْهُ ثَلاَثٌ وَحَافَةُ الْـ ... ـلِسَانِ فَأَقْصَاهَا لِحَرْفٍ تَطَوَّلَا

And the middle of the two [tongue and palate] — from it [come] three; and the edge (ḥāfa) of the tongue, from its rearmost, [is] for a letter that stretched far.

1141. إِلى مَا يَلِي الأَضْرَاسَ وَهْوَ لَدَيْهِمَا ... يَعِزُّ وَبِالْيُمْنَى يَكُونُ مُقَلَّلاً

Up to what adjoins the molar teeth; and it, with the two of them [either side], is rare, and on the right side it is most diminished.

1142. وَحَرْفٌ بِأَدْنَاهَا إِلى مُنْتَهاَهُ قَدْ ... يَلِي الْحَنَكَ الأَعْلى وَدُونَهُ ذُو وِلَا

And a letter [is] at its [the edge's] nearest, up to its end, that adjoins the upper palate, and below it is one in succession.

1143. وَحَرْفٌ يُدَانِيهِ إِلَى الظَّهْرِ مَدْخَلٌ ... وَكَمْ حَاذِقٍ مَعْ سِيبَويْهِ بِهِ اجْتَلَا

And a letter approaches it, [with] an entry-place toward the back; and how many a skilled one, together with Sībawayh, has clarified by it.

1144. وَمِنْ طَرَفٍ هُنَّ الثَّلاثُ لِقُطْرُبٍ ... وَيَحْيَى مَعَ الْجَرْمِيِّ مَعْناَهُ قُوِّلَا

And from a tip [of the tongue] [come] these three, according to Quṭrub and Yaḥyā together with al-Jarmī — its meaning was stated.

1145. وَمِنْهُ وَمِنْ عُلْيَا الثَّنَايَا ثَلاَثَةٌ ... وَمِنْهُ وَمِنْ أَطْرَافِهاَ مِثْلُهاَ انْجَلَى

And from it [the tip] and from the upper incisors [come] three; and from it and from their tips the like of them became clear.

1146. وَمِنْهُ وَمِنْ بَيْنِ الثنَايَا ثَلاَثَةٌ ... وَحَرْفٌ مِنْ اطْرَافِ الثَّنَاياَ هِيَ الْعُلاَ

And from it and from between the incisors [come] three; and a letter [comes] from the tips of the incisors, they being the upper [ones].

1147. وَمِنْ بَاطِنِ السُّفْلَى مِنَ الشَّفَتَيْنِ قُلْ ... وَلِلشَّفَتَيْنِ اجْعَلْ ثَلاَثاً لِتَعْدِلَا

And from the inner part of the lower [lip] of the two lips, say; and for the two lips assign three, that you may balance [the count].

1148. وَفِي أَوَّلٍ مِنْ كِلْمِ بَيْتَيْنِ جَمْعُهَا ... سِوَى أَرْبَعٍ فِيهِنَّ كِلْمَةٌ اَوَّلَا

And in the first [hemistichs] of the words of two verses is their collection [the makhārij ciphers], except for four in which there is a word [coming] first.

1149. أَهَاعَ حَشَا غَاوٍ خَلاَ قَارِئٍ كَمَا ... جَرَى شَرْطُ يُسْرَى ضَارِعٍ لاحَ نَوْفَلَا

"a-hāʿa," "ḥashā," "ghāwin," "khalā," "qāriʾin," as "jarā," "sharṭu," "yusrā," "ḍāriʿin," "lāḥa," "nawfalā." [cipher letters for makhārij]

1150. رَعَى طُهْرَ دِينٍ تَمَّهُ ظِلُّ ذِي ثَناَ ... صَفَا سَجْلُ زُهْدٍ فِي وُجُوهِ بَنِي مَلَا

"raʿā," "ṭuhra," "dīnin," "tammahu," "ẓillu," "dhī thanā," "ṣafā," "sajlu," "zuhdin" — among the faces of the sons of "Malā." [cipher letters]

1151. وَغُنَّةُ تَنْوِينٍ وَنُونٍ وَمِيمٍ اِنْ ... سَكَنَّ وَلاَ إِظْهَارَ فِي الأَنْفِ يُجْتَلَى

And [there is] a nasalization (ghunna) of the tanwīn and the nūn and the mīm if they are made quiescent, and there is no clear pronouncing in the nose that is drawn [from them].

1152. وَجَهْرٌ وَرَخْوٌ وَانْفِتَاحٌ صِفَاتُهَا ... وَمُسْتَفِلٌ فَاجْمَعْ بِالاَضْدَادِ أَشْمُلَا

And [voicing] jahr, and softness (rakhw), and openness (infitāḥ), and lowering (istifāl) are their attributes; so gather by [their] opposites — comprehend.

1153. فَمَهْمُوسُهاَ عَشْرٌ (حَثَتْ كِسْفَ شَخْصِهِ) ... (أَجَدَّتْ كَقُطْبٍ) لِلشَّدِيدَةِ مُثِّلَا

For its whispered (mahmūs) letters are ten: "ḥathat kisfa shakhṣihi"; "ajaddat ka-quṭbin" was set as the model for the plosive (shadīda) [letters].

1154. وَمَا بَيْنَ رَخْوٍ وَالشَّدِيدَةِ (عَمْرُنَلْ) ... وَ (وَايٌ) حُرُوفُ الْمَدِّ وَالرَّخْوِ كَمَّلَا

And [the letters] between soft (rakhw) and plosive (shadīda) [are] "ʿamr nal"; and "wāy" — the letters of prolongation and softness — completed.

1155. وَ (قِظْ خُصَّ ضَغْطٍ) سَبْعُ عُلُوٍ وَمُطْبَقٌ ... هُوَ الضَّادُ وَالظَّا أُعْجِما وَإِنُ اهْمِلَا

And "qiẓ khuṣṣa ḍaghṭin" — seven of elevation (ʿuluww); and the closed-off (muṭbaq) is the ḍād and the ẓāʾ, [whether] pointed or unpointed.

1156. وَصَادٌ وَسِينٌ مُهْمَلانِ وَزَايُهَا ... صَفِيرٌ وَشِينٌ بِالتَّفَشِّي تَعَمَّلَا

And the ṣād and sīn are unpointed; and its zāy [is a letter of] whistling (ṣafīr); and the shīn was worked with diffusion (tafashshī).

1157. وَمُنْحَرِفٌ لاَمٌ وَرَاءٌ وَكُرِّرَتْ ... كَمَا الْمُسْتَطِيلُ الضَّادُ لَيْسَ بِأَغْفَلَا

And [a letter of] deflection (munḥarif) is the lām and the rāʾ — and it was repeated (mukarrara); just as the prolonged (mustaṭīl) [letter] is the ḍād, which is not [to be] left out.

1158. كَمَا اْلأَلِفُ الْهَاوِي وَ (آوِي) لِعِلَّةٍ ... وَفِي (قُطْبِ جَدٍّ) خَمْسُ قَلْقَلَةٍ عُلَا

Just as the alif is the soft/vanishing (hāwī), and "āwī" [is] for a defect; and in "quṭb jadd" are five of vibration (qalqala) — high.

1159. وَأَعْرَفُهُنَّ الْقَافُ كُلُّ يَعُدُّهَا ... فَهذَا مَعَ التَّوْفِيقِ كَافٍ مُحَصِّلَا

And the best-known of them is the qāf — everyone counts it [so]; so this, together with [divine] success-granting, is sufficient and conclusive.

1160. وَقَدْ وَفقَ اللهُ الكَرِيمُ بِمَنِّهِ ... لإِكْمَالِهَا حَسْنَاءَ مَيْمُونَةَ الْجِلَا

God the Generous has granted, by His favor, the completion of this [poem] — a beauty, blessed in revelation.

1161. وَأَبْيَاتُهَا أَلْفٌ تَزِيدُ ثَلاَثَةً ... وَمَعْ مِائَةٍ سَبْعِينَ زُهْراً وَكُمَّلَا

Its verses [total] a thousand plus three — and with one hundred and seventy, bright and complete.

1162. وَقَدْ كُسِيَتْ مِنْهَا الْمَعَانِي عِنَايَةً ... كَمَا عَرِيَتْ عَنْ كُلِّ عَوْرَاءَ مِفْصَلاَ

And the meanings of it have been clothed [in words] with care, just as it was stripped bare of every flawed and dislocated [expression].

1163. وَتَمَّتْ بِحَمْدِ اللهِ فِي الْخَلْقِ سَهْلَةً ... مُنَزَّهَةً عَنْ مَنْطِقِ الْهُجْرِ مِقْوَلَا

And it was completed, by the praise of God, made easy in composition, free of the speech of foul talk, as an utterance.

1164. وَلكِنَّهَا تَبْغِيْ مِنَ النَّاسِ كُفْؤَهَا ... أَخَا ثِقَةٍ يَعْفُوْ وَيُغْضِيْ تَجَمُّلَا

But it seeks from people one who is its equal: a man of trust who pardons and overlooks, out of graciousness.

1165. وَلَيْسَ لَهَا إِلاَّ ذُنُوبُ وَلِيِّهَا ... فَيَا طَيِّبَ الأَنْفَاسِ أَحْسِنْ تَأَوُّلَا

And it has nothing [to be charged with] except the sins of its guardian [the poet]; so O sweet of breath, make a fair interpretation.

1166. وَقُلْ رَحِمَ الرَّحمنُّ حَيًّا وَمَيِّتًا ... فَتًى كَانَ لِلإِنْصَافِ وَالْحِلْمِ مَعْقِلَا

And say: may the All-Merciful have mercy, living and dead, on a man who was a stronghold for fairness and forbearance.

1167. عَسَى اللهُ يُدْنِيْ سَعْيَهُ بِجَوَازِهِ ... وَإِنْ كَانَ زَيْفاً غَيْرَ خَافٍ مُزَلَّلَا

May God perhaps bring his striving near to its acceptance, even if it was base coin, not hidden, [but] full of flaws.

1168. فَيا خَيْرَ غَفَّارٍ وَيَا خَيْرَ رَاحِمٍ ... وَياَ خَيْرَ مَأْمُولٍ جَدًا وَتَفَضُّلَا

So O best of forgivers, and O best of those who show mercy, and O best of those hoped in, [out of] generosity and graciousness.

1169. أَقِلْ عَثْرَتِي وَانْفَعْ بِهاَ وَبِقَصْدِهَا ... حَنَانَيْكَ يَا اللهُ يَا رَافِعَ الْعُلَا

Overlook my stumble, and bring benefit through it [the poem] and through its intent — Your tenderness, O God, O Raiser of the heights!

1170. وَآخِرُ دَعْوَانَا بِتَوْفِيقِ رَبِّنَا ... أَنِ الْحَمْدُ لِلهِ الَّذِي وَحْدَهُ عَلَا

And the last of our supplication, by the success-granting of our Lord, is "Praise be to God," who alone is exalted.

1171. وَبَعْدُ صَلاَةُ اللهِ ثُمَّ سَلاَمُهُ ... عَلَى سَيِّدِ الْخَلْقِ الرِّضَا مُتَنَخِّلَا

And after [that], the blessing of God, then His peace, be upon the master of creation, the well-pleasing one, the choicest.

1172. مُحَمَّدٍ الْمُخْتَارِ لِلْمَجْدِ كَعْبَةً ... صَلاَةً تُبَارِيْ الرِّيحَ مِسْكاً وَمَنْدَلَا

Muḥammad, the chosen one, [made] for glory a Kaʿba — a blessing that vies with the wind [in fragrance], musk and aloeswood.

1173. وَتُبْدِي عَلَى أَصْحَابِهِ نَفَحَاتِهَا ... بِغَيْرِ تَنَاهٍ زَرْنَبًا وَقَرَنْفُلَا

And it [the blessing] displays upon his companions its breaths of fragrance, without end, [like] zarnab and clove.
