Stopping on the ends of Words Part 4
Stopping with a pure
sukoon 
and what is allowed with it part 2
That
which can stop only on a pure sukoon, and 
and
are not
permitted.
In
the last tidbit lesson, now located in the tidbit archives, we state that
there are five different categories in which we can only stop with a pure
sukoon and no other way of stopping is allowed. We will discussed three of
them last lesson and continue with the other two this lesson.
4. The
female 
which
has two divisions:
A. A division that was written with
or
,This is exemplified in
the words:
All agree that these words have
when stopping,
and
are
not allowed. This is due to that fact that
and
both make clear the
vowel (when the word is read continuing) of the letter that is being stopped
on, here the letter ,
which has no vowel when continuing, because it is exchanged for the letter
, and this
is non-existent when
stopping.
B. A division that was written with an open
. This division, according
to the way of reading of Hafs can be stopped on with three ways; with ,
or or
depending on the vowel of
the when
continuing.
If it has a dhammah, it can be stopped on all three ways, as in:
.
If it has a kasrah it can be stopped on with
or ,
as in:

It is to be noted that the female
is
always conjugated, and never fixed (not conjugated).
5. The pronoun
(
)
The pronoun which
is at the end of words such as in: 
or
or
can be stopped with an absolute
sukoon, and all are agreement with this. There is a difference of opinion as
to whether it can be stopped with
or
.
There are three schools of thought concerning this.
A. The first school of thought:
Complete
forbiddance of stopping with
or
on
the ,
using the female as
a gauge because of the similarity between it and the pronoun when
stopping. In this school of thought only
or
pure sukoon is allowed when stopping.
B. The second school of thought:
Allowance
of and
when
stopping depending on the vowel of the when
continuing. We can stop with
in
this school of thought when there is a kasrah or dhammah on the
, and stop
with when
there is a dhammah on the
C. The third school of thought:

We will discuss this school of thought for stopping on
