Ṣifāt Lāzimah (Permanent Characteristics) in Tajweed: Complete Guide

Updated: January 30, 2026 E-Quran Coaching 15 min read

Quick Answer

Ṣifāt Lāzimah are permanent characteristics that belong to each Arabic letter regardless of context - they never change. These include Hams (whisper), Jahr (voiced), Shiddah (firmness), Rikhāwah (softness), Isti'lā' (elevation), Istifāl (lowering), Iṭbāq (compression), Infitāḥ (opening), and more.

Think of them as the "personality" of each letter - ص is always heavy, س is always light, ف is always whispered, ب is always voiced. Mastering these is essential because correct makhraj with wrong sifat still makes pronunciation incorrect.

Why Permanent Characteristics Matter

Have you ever wondered why ص (ṣād) sounds different from س (sīn) even though they look similar? Or why ق (qāf) sounds heavier than ك (kāf)? The answer lies in Ṣifāt Lāzimah — the permanent characteristics that define how each Arabic letter is pronounced.

Think of it this way: Makharij (articulation points) tell you where a letter is produced, while Ṣifāt (characteristics) tell you how it's produced. Even if you pronounce ص from the correct place but without its heavy, compressed quality, it will sound wrong.

Simple Analogy

Imagine two people saying the same word. One whispers it, the other says it normally. Same word, different sound quality. That's the difference between Hams (whisper) and Jahr (voiced) — two permanent characteristics that never change for specific letters.

We've already studied Ṣifāt al-Ḥurūf (the characteristics of Arabic letters) generally, and learned about their two types:

Now we're diving deeply into Ṣifāt Lāzimah — the permanent traits that belong to each letter, no matter what word or position it's in. Mastering these is essential because they form the foundation of correct Quranic recitation.

What are Ṣifāt Lāzimah?

We already know that makhārij tell us where a letter is produced and ṣifāt tell us how it is produced. Ṣifāt Lāzimah are the permanent qualities that are built into each letter and never change, no matter what word they appear in or what comes before or after them.

Why this matters: Even if you pronounce a letter from the correct articulation point (makhraj), using the wrong characteristic (sifat) will make your pronunciation incorrect. For example, saying ص (ṣād) with the light quality of س (sīn) changes the meaning and breaks Tajweed rules.

Key Concept

Think of it like this: The letter س will always be soft, breathy, and light — that's its permanent personality. The letter ق will always be strong, elevated, and heavy — that's its permanent personality. These traits never change.

You can think of Ṣifāt Lāzimah as the "DNA" of each letter — the characteristics that define it in every situation, just like how your eye color doesn't change based on what you're wearing.

Common Mistake

Many students focus only on makharij (where to produce the sound) but ignore sifat (how to produce it). This leads to incorrect pronunciation. Both must be correct together.

Example: Pronouncing ص from the correct place but without its heavy, compressed quality makes it sound like س — which is wrong.

Note: We will briefly mention Tafkhīm/Tarqīq, Qalqalah, Tafkhīm of Rā' and Tafkhīm of Lām in Allāh here only because we already have full detailed lessons for those.

Main Permanent Characteristics

1 — الهَمْس (al-Hams) — Whisper / Breathy Sound

What it is (in simple terms):

When a letter has Hams, the sound comes out mostly as escaping breath — your vocal cords don't vibrate. It's like a whisper blended into the consonant. The sound is airy and thin rather than full-bodied and resonant.

Real-world example: Say "ssss" like a snake. That's Hams — pure breath with no voice. Now say "zzzz" like a bee. That's Jahr (voiced) — you can feel your throat vibrate. Hams letters are like the "ssss" sound.

How to test / feel it (step-by-step):

  1. Put your fingertips lightly on your throat (over your Adam's apple/larynx)
  2. Say the letter in a short syllable (for example سَ - "sa")
  3. What you should feel: Little or no vibration in your throat, but you should feel air escaping on your face or hand
  4. If you feel: Significant throat vibration, it's NOT hamis — you're probably voicing it

Quick Test

Say سَ (sa) and زَ (za) while touching your throat. س should have NO vibration (Hams), while ز should have clear vibration (Jahr). This is the easiest way to understand the difference.

Examples & explanation:

  • سَمَاء — samāʼ (sky) → The س is hamis: say "sa" and notice the breathy hiss without throat vibration. It's like whispering "sa".
  • فَرْد — fard (individual) → ف is hamis: your lips nearly meet and a puff of air escapes. No voice, just breath.
  • شَجَر — shajar (tree) → ش is hamis: the sound is breathy with a sibilant hiss, like "shhh" in English.

Why these show Hams: In each case, the consonant is produced with airflow and without vocal-cord vibration. The sound is thin and air-like, not full and resonant.

Practice drill (do this now):

Contrast these minimal pairs to feel the difference:

  • سَ / زَ — Say "sa" (no vibration) then "za" (with vibration)
  • فَ / بَ — Say "fa" (breathy) then "ba" (voiced)
  • شَ / جَ — Say "sha" (hissy) then "ja" (voiced)

Tip: Exaggerate the breath on Hams letters and the vibration on Jahr letters until your ear and throat can clearly distinguish them.

Common mistake & fix:

Mistake: Pronouncing Hams letters as voiced (e.g., saying ز instead of س, or ب instead of ف). This is very common for English speakers because English has fewer breathy consonants.

Fix:

  1. Use the throat-finger test every time you practice
  2. Exaggerate the breath for Hams letters — make them very whispery
  3. Practice minimal pairs daily until your ear automatically distinguishes them
  4. Record yourself and listen back — you'll hear the difference more clearly

Letters with Hams (10 letters)

Remember this group: ف ح ث ه ش خ ص س ك ت

Memory tip: These are the "breathy" letters — they all sound like whispers or hisses when pronounced correctly.

2 — الجَهْر (al-Jahr) — Voiced / Full-bodied Sound

What it is (in simple terms):

Jahr is the opposite of Hams: the letter is produced with vocal-cord vibration, so the sound is fuller, clearer, and more resonant — not a whisper. Think of it as a "voiced" consonant that uses your voice box.

Real-world example: Say "zzzz" like a bee buzzing. That's Jahr — you can feel your throat vibrate. Now say "ssss" like a snake. That's Hams — no vibration, just breath. Jahr letters are like the "zzzz" sound.

How to test / feel it (step-by-step):

  1. Place your fingertips on your throat (over your Adam's apple/larynx)
  2. Say a voiced letter (like بَ - "ba")
  3. What you should feel: Clear vibration in your throat as the sound is produced
  4. If you feel: Nothing and only air, it is NOT jahr — you're probably whispering it

Quick Test

Say بَ (ba) and فَ (fa) while touching your throat. ب should have clear vibration (Jahr), while ف should have NO vibration (Hams). This is the easiest way to understand the difference.

Examples & explanation:

  • بَاب — bāb (door) → ب vibrates the vocal cords; no breathy hiss. It's a full, voiced sound.
  • دِين — dīn (religion) → د is voiced; the sound is direct and vibratory, not breathy.
  • زَيْت — zayt (oil) → ز vibrates; contrast this with س which would be breathy with no vibration.

Why these show Jahr: The vocal cords actively vibrate, producing a resonant, full-bodied quality rather than a breathy hiss. You can feel the difference in your throat.

Practice drill (do this now):

Repeat these pairs and feel the vibration difference:

  • بَ / فَ — Say "ba" (vibration) then "fa" (no vibration)
  • دَ / تَ — Say "da" (vibration) then "ta" (no vibration)
  • زَ / سَ — Say "za" (vibration) then "sa" (no vibration)

Tip: Feel vibration only on the voiced (Jahr) member of each pair.

Common mistake & fix:

Mistake: Learners sometimes whisper voiced letters, especially when they're trying to be quiet or when they're not sure. This makes Jahr letters sound like Hams letters.

Fix:

  1. Put fingers on throat every time you practice
  2. Exaggerate vibration by humming a vowel first, then add the consonant (hum → ba)
  3. Practice saying Jahr letters loudly at first, then gradually normalize the volume while keeping the vibration
  4. Record yourself and check if you can hear the difference

Letters with Jahr (18 letters)

Remember: All letters EXCEPT the 10 Hams letters have Jahr. These are the "voiced" letters that use your voice box.

Memory tip: If it's not breathy (Hams), it's voiced (Jahr). Most Arabic letters are Jahr.

3 — الشِّدَّة (ash-Shiddah) — Firmness / Doubled Quality (Shaddah)

What it is:

Shiddah is the quality of tightness and holding: when a letter carries shaddah (ّ) it is produced twice practically — first held (no vowel) and then released — but both parts belong to one syllabic moment. It's not a long vowel; it's a hold + release of the same consonant.

How to test / feel it:

Say a word with and without shaddah (for example دَرَسَ vs دَرَّسَ). In the shaddah word you will feel a momentary hold at the letter's articulation point — the tongue or lips stay in contact and then release — creating a double but immediate sound.

Examples & explanation:

Why these show shiddah: each example requires holding contact and then releasing without inserting a vowel between the two identical consonantal articulations.

Drill:

Take a list of words with and without shaddah and read them alternately: دَرَسَ — دَرَّسَ, قَوْل — قَوَّلَ, holding the doubled sounds briefly.

Common mistake & fix:

Mistake: Omitting the hold (saying darrasa as if single d) or making the hold too long.
Fix: Practice rhythmic timing: treat shaddah as a "hold for one beat, release on the next half-beat" — use a small metronome or clap.

4 — الرَّخَاوَة (ar-Rikhāwah) — Softness / Free Flow

What it is:

Rikhāwah is the relaxed or flowing quality: a letter with rikhāwah does not demand a tight hold; the air flows smoothly. Most Arabic letters in their plain form are rakhī (soft).

How to test / feel it:

Say سَ or مَ and hold the sound: it continues without the closure/pressure felt in shaddah letters. If the sound can be prolonged without a trapped feeling, it is rikhāwah.

Examples & explanation:

Why these show rikhāwah: they permit continuity of sound; the articulators do not close tightly.

Drill:

Alternate words: رَحْمَة vs رَّحْمَة (if the latter existed) to sense the difference — focus on letting rikhāwah letters flow.

Common mistake & fix:

Mistake: Making soft letters too abrupt (over-stopping).
Fix: Practice stretching the consonant slightly (without adding vowel) to feel flow.

5 — التَّوَسُّط (at-Tawassuṭ) — Middle / Balanced Quality

What it is:

Tawassuṭ letters are between shiddah and rikhāwah. They have partial hold and partial flow — neither fully closed nor fully free. They behave in a balanced manner; some pressure is present but not as forceful as shaddah letters.

How to test / feel it:

Say لَ or نَ and observe: there is a slight point of contact (tongue, lip, or nasal resonance) but the sound is not fully trapped. You'll feel slight resistance but still continuous sound.

Examples & explanation:

Why these show tawassuṭ: articulators meet with gentle contact allowing a controlled but not rigid production.

Drill:

Practice sequences: لَ — رَ — سَ to feel the middle nature of ل and ر versus the lightness of س.

Common mistake & fix:

Mistake: Treating these as either very hard or very soft.
Fix: Aim for gentle contact — not tight clasp, not free flow.

6 — الاسْتِعْلَاء (al-Isti'lāʼ) — Elevation / Raised-back Articulation

What it is:

Isti'lāʼ is when the back of the tongue rises toward the soft palate or upper throat, producing a thicker, fuller sound. Letters with isti'lāʼ are typically perceived as heavier and deeper.

How to test / feel it:

Say قَ or خَ and feel the back of your tongue lift up and move toward the soft palate; you'll sense a deep resonance at the back of the mouth/throat.

Examples & explanation:

Why these show isti'lāʼ: their production uses the dorsal part of the tongue and the oral cavity's posterior area, generating a heavy resonance.

Drill:

Compare قَ / كَ, صَ / سَ: exaggerate back-tongue lift for the first of each pair.

Common mistake & fix:

Mistake: Pronouncing isti'lāʼ letters too front (as if they were soft letters).
Fix: Practice exaggeration initially: intentionally lift the back tongue higher until the feel is learned, then normalize.

7 — الاسْتِفَال (al-Istifāl) — Lowered / Front Articulation

What it is:

Istifāl is the low/toward-front tongue quality. Letters with istifāl are produced with the tongue low or at the front, giving a lighter, thinner sound.

How to test / feel it:

Say تَ or سَ and notice the tongue tip/blade near the teeth or alveolar ridge and the mouth feeling open; no back-lift is present.

Examples & explanation:

Why these show istifāl: these sounds are articulated in the anterior oral cavity, not by the back of the tongue.

Drill:

Contrast طَ / تَ, قَ / كَ to feel front versus back production.

Common mistake & fix:

Mistake: Pushing front sounds back under the influence of nearby heavy letters.
Fix: Practice isolated articulation at the tip of the tongue (touch points).

8 — الإِطْبَاق (al-Iṭbāq) — Compression / Closing (Strong Contact)

What it is:

Iṭbāq is a forceful closing or compression of the oral cavity at the time of articulation — the tongue presses up and the sound becomes compact, intense and resonant. Letters with iṭbāq feel "full" and closed.

How to test / feel it:

Say صَ or طَ and sense a broad contact between the tongue and the roof of mouth — the oral cavity feels compressed.

Examples & explanation:

Why these show iṭbāq: their tongue/palate contact traps and compresses the sound, making it concentrated.

Drill:

Practice صَ / سَ, طَ / تَ to contrast compression vs openness.

Common mistake & fix:

Mistake: Treating these as open (saying س for ص).
Fix: Use deliberate broad tongue contact and feel the "press" at roof of mouth.

9 — الانْفِتَاح (al-Infitāḥ) — Opening / Free-lipped Articulation

What it is:

Infitāḥ is the open counterpart to iṭbāq: the articulators leave the cavity open so the sound spreads out. The tone is freer and less concentrated.

How to test / feel it:

Say سَ or زَ and feel the air and sound move freely without a pressing contact to the palate.

Examples & explanation:

Why these show infitāḥ: no compressed contact, sound is unconstrained.

Drill:

Alternate iṭbāq/infitāḥ pairs: صَ — سَ, طَ — تَ.

Common mistake & fix:

Mistake: Over-compressing open letters due to nearby heavy letters.
Fix: Isolate and produce the open letter in initial position to free the articulation.

10 — الإِذْلَاق (al-Idhlāq) — Fluidity / Smooth Flow

What it is:

Idhlāq describes letters that are naturally smooth and mobile in speech — they move and connect easily to neighboring letters.

How to test / feel it:

Say فَرَح or مَلِك — notice how the tongue/lips move freely between the consonants without resistance.

Examples & explanation:

Why these show idhlāq: they are produced at places and with manners that facilitate swift movement.

Drill:

Read a short phrase with many fluid letters and aim for connectedness: قَلْبُ الرَّحْمَن (then compare with a phrase heavy with compressive letters).

Common mistake & fix:

Mistake: Trying to force movement artificially fast — causing sloppiness.
Fix: Slow practice with focus on clear contact then speeding up while maintaining clarity.

11 — الغُنَّة (al-Ghunna) — Nasal Resonance (Brief Overview)

What it is (brief):

Ghunna is a nasal, humming resonance associated primarily with ن and م, especially when doubled (ّ) or in specific tajwīd contexts (Idghām, Ikhfā', etc.). For permanent sifat we note that ن and م inherently allow nasal resonance, though its length and application depend on context.

How to test / feel it:

Hum a nasal sound like "mmm" and feel resonance behind the nose. Produce مّ or نّ and hold the nasal hum for the required counts (we'll detail rules in the ghunnah lesson).

Examples & explanation:

We will study ghunnah length, where to hold it, and rules of merge and concealment in the focused ghunnah lesson.

12 — القَلْقَلَة (al-Qalqalah) — Brief Overview

Short note (as requested):

Qalqalah is a small "bounce" or echo heard on specific letters when they have sukoon (ق ط ب ج د). The letters themselves are listed as having a tendency for this property, but the audible bounce depends on stopping/pausing context. We will cover qalqalah fully in its own detailed lesson.

Practical Integration — How to Learn These Characteristics Effectively

Learning permanent characteristics can feel overwhelming at first because there are many of them. Here's a proven strategy that makes it manageable and effective:

Step-by-Step Learning Strategy

  1. One characteristic per session: Don't try to learn everything at once. Pick one (e.g., Hams) and practice its letters in many words. Record yourself and compare.
  2. Use minimal pairs: This is the fastest way to understand differences. Practice صَ vs سَ, قَ vs كَ, بَ vs فَ. The contrast makes the difference obvious.
  3. Physical checks are essential:
    • Throat check for Jahr/Hams (feel vibration or not)
    • Tongue placement (front/back) for Isti'lā'/Istifāl
    • Feeling the hold for Shiddah
    • Nasal resonance for Ghunnah
  4. Start slow, then speed up: Begin slowly to feel positions and qualities, then gradually increase speed while preserving the characteristic.
  5. Integrate gradually: Read small surahs focusing only on maintaining permanent characteristics; ignore temporary rules for now.

Pro Tip

Focus on the most common mistakes first: Most students struggle with Hams vs Jahr and heavy vs light letters. Master these two pairs first, and you'll have solved 80% of permanent characteristic problems.

Why this works: Once you can clearly distinguish between breathy and voiced, and between heavy and light, the other characteristics become easier to understand and apply.

Common Errors & How to Fix Them

Here are the most common mistakes students make with permanent characteristics, along with practical fixes you can apply immediately:

Top 5 Mistakes & Step-by-Step Fixes

1. Voicing errors on Hams letters (sounding س as ز, or ف as ب)

The problem: Many students voice breathy letters, making them sound like their voiced counterparts. This changes the meaning and breaks Tajweed rules.

The fix:

  1. Use the throat-finger test every time
  2. Practice minimal pairs: سَ/زَ, فَ/بَ, شَ/جَ
  3. Exaggerate the breath for Hams letters — make them very whispery
  4. Record yourself and listen — you'll hear the difference more clearly

2. Backing front letters (saying ت or د like ق)

The problem: Students sometimes push front letters (like ت, د) to the back, making them sound heavy like ق. This is especially common when these letters appear near heavy letters.

The fix:

  1. Practice tongue placement drills — say dental letters while touching your alveolar ridge (the bump behind your upper teeth)
  2. Isolate front letters — practice them alone before combining with other letters
  3. Use contrasting pairs: تَ/طَ, دَ/ضَ to feel the front vs back difference

3. Ignoring Shiddah (making doubled letters soft)

The problem: Students skip the hold in Shiddah, making doubled letters sound like single letters. This changes the meaning and rhythm.

The fix:

  1. Practice metered rhythm — treat Shiddah as "hold for one beat, release on the next"
  2. Use a small metronome or clap to keep time
  3. Practice words with and without Shiddah: دَرَسَ vs دَرَّسَ
  4. Feel the hold at the articulation point before releasing

4. Failing to raise back-tongue for Isti'lā' letters

The problem: Students don't lift the back of the tongue for heavy letters like ق, خ, ص, making them sound light like ك, ح, س.

The fix:

  1. Practice exaggerated back-tongue raising — intentionally lift it higher than normal
  2. Use contrasting words: قَ/كَ, صَ/سَ, خَ/حَ
  3. Feel the deep resonance at the back of your mouth/throat
  4. Once you feel it, gradually normalize while maintaining the quality

5. Weak Ghunnah (nasal too short or absent)

The problem: Students don't hold the nasal resonance long enough for م and ن when they have Shaddah, making the sound incomplete.

The fix:

  1. Hold the nasal hum on meem/noon Shaddah for the correct length (typically 2 counts for Shaddah)
  2. Practice humming "mmm" and "nnn" to feel the nasal resonance
  3. Practice words like أُمَّة and مِنَّ focusing on the nasal hold
  4. Count: "one-two" while holding the nasal sound

Remember

These mistakes are common because Arabic has sounds and characteristics that don't exist in English. Don't get discouraged — with consistent practice and the right techniques, you'll master them. The key is to practice daily and use physical checks (throat, tongue placement) to verify you're doing it correctly.

Simple Practice Plan (10 Minutes Daily for 2 Weeks)

You don't need hours of practice — just 10 focused minutes daily for 2 weeks will make a significant difference. Here's exactly what to do:

Daily Practice Routine (10 Minutes Total)

Minute 1-2: Warm-up

  • Humming for Ghunnah awareness (say "mmm" and "nnn" and feel the nasal resonance)
  • Throat check — say سَ (no vibration) then زَ (vibration) to remind yourself of the difference
  • This prepares your mouth and reminds you of key distinctions

Minute 3-5: Focus on One Characteristic

  • Pick one characteristic (e.g., Isti'lā' — heavy letters)
  • Read 10 words containing those letters (e.g., قَلْب, صَبْر, خَيْر, طَالِب)
  • Focus ONLY on that characteristic — ignore everything else
  • Feel the back-tongue raising for each heavy letter

Minute 6-8: Practice Minimal Pairs

  • Contrast that characteristic with its opposite
  • Example: If practicing Isti'lā', contrast قَ/كَ, صَ/سَ, خَ/حَ
  • Say each pair 5 times, feeling the difference
  • This reinforces the distinction in your muscle memory

Minute 9-10: Apply to Real Text

  • Read a short ayah or phrase (2-3 lines)
  • Focus ONLY on maintaining that characteristic throughout
  • Ignore temporary rules for now — just focus on permanent characteristics
  • This connects practice to real recitation

Recording Tip

Record yourself every 3 days and compare: You'll hear your progress and identify areas that still need work. This is one of the most effective ways to improve because you can hear mistakes you don't notice while speaking.

2-Week Schedule Example

Week 1: Focus on Hams vs Jahr (Days 1-3), then Shiddah vs Rikhāwah (Days 4-7)

Week 2: Focus on Isti'lā' vs Istifāl (Days 8-10), then Iṭbāq vs Infitāḥ (Days 11-14)

After 2 weeks: Review all characteristics and practice integrating them together

Next Steps After Mastering Permanent Characteristics

  1. Master Tafkheem & Tarqeeq detailed rules — Learn when letters are heavy or light with comprehensive examples
  2. Complete Qalqalah rules with practice exercises — Master the bounce sound in different contexts
  3. Learn Tafkheem of Rā' detailed pronunciation rules — Understand when Rā' is heavy or light
  4. Master Lām of Allāh pronunciation rules and practice — Learn the special rules for Lām in Allah
  5. Understand Sifāt 'Āriḍah (Temporary Characteristics) — Learn context-dependent pronunciation rules
  6. Fix common Sifāt mistakes with correction strategies — Learn to identify and correct pronunciation errors

Note: Master permanent characteristics first as they form the foundation. Once you can consistently produce each letter's inherent qualities, then move to temporary characteristics that depend on context.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are Ṣifāt Lāzimah in Tajweed?
Ṣifāt Lāzimah are permanent characteristics that belong to each Arabic letter regardless of context - they never change. These include Hams (whisper), Jahr (voiced), Shiddah (firmness), Rikhāwah (softness), Isti'lā' (elevation), Istifāl (lowering), Iṭbāq (compression), Infitāḥ (opening), and more.
Why are permanent characteristics important?
These characteristics define the "personality" of each letter. For example, ص is always heavy, س is always light, ف is always whispered, ب is always voiced. Mastering them is essential because correct makhraj with wrong sifat still makes pronunciation incorrect.
How can I practice distinguishing Hams from Jahr?
Use the throat-finger test: put your fingertips on your throat and say the letter. Hams letters (like س, ف, ش) produce little or no vibration, while Jahr letters (like ب, د, ز) produce clear throat vibration. Practice minimal pairs like سَ/زَ, فَ/بَ.
What's the difference between Shiddah and Rikhāwah?
Shiddah is firmness/strength (like in doubled letters with shaddah), while Rikhāwah is softness/free flow (like most plain letters). Shiddah requires holding and releasing, while Rikhāwah allows continuous sound flow without tight closure.
How do I master Isti'lā' (elevation) and Istifāl (lowering)?
Isti'lā' letters (like ق, خ, ص) require raising the back of the tongue toward the soft palate, producing a heavy, deep sound. Istifāl letters (like ت, س) are produced with the tongue low or at the front, giving a lighter sound. Practice contrasting pairs like قَ/كَ, صَ/سَ.
What's the best way to practice these characteristics daily?
Spend 10 minutes daily: 2 min warm-up with throat checks, 3 min focusing on one sifat, 3 min practicing minimal pairs, 2 min applying to short phrases. Record yourself every 3 days to track progress and identify areas for improvement.
