Stopping on the ends of Words part 5
Stopping with a pure
sukoon
, and what is allowed with it (continued)
Last lesson we discussed the ways we are
allowed to stop on words that end with a
(pronoun). We explained that
there are three different schools of thought on whether we can stop with
or
,
and discussed the first two schools of thought. This lesson we discuss the
third school of thought. As an overview, we will briefly review the other
two schools of thought.
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
.
B. The second school of thought:
Allowance of
and
when
stopping depending on the vowel of the when
continuing.
C. The third school of thought:
.
It is divided into sections, and according to Imam Al-Jazaree it is the
most correct school of thought.
There is forbiddance of and
in four states, and allowance of them
in all other states.
These four states that forbid and
in this
school of thought on the are:
1)
When a
saakinah occurs before a
pronoun , no matter if it is a lengthened
or
of a leen
.
2)
When a 
saakinah
occurs before the , with no difference being
made to whether it is a lengthened
saakinah as in: 
,
or
saakinah
of a leen, as in: 
.
3)
When a
kasrah precedes it
.
4)
When a
dhammah precedes it 
.
There then remains after the four
previous forbidding states, three states that permit in them stopping on
the with
and
, in addition to the complete
sukoon. They are:
1)
When a
lengthened alif occurs before the 
.
2)
When a
fat-hah precedes it. 
3)
When a
true sukoon precedes it.
It is to be noted that the
is never conjugated, and is
fixed in vowel either with a dhammah
or a kasrah. The
can be stopped on with
and
in the three previously discussed
allowable states, according to its vowel when continuing.
If it has a dhammah, then it can be stopped on with a complete sukoon, or
with , or with
.
If it has a kasrah it is only allowed to stop on it with
or with a complete sukoon ().
The following chart summarizes the three
schools of thought on stopping with words ending with the pronoun
