Stopping and starting
Stop at a sensible place and resume correctly.
What this lesson introduces
- The waqf marks
- Changes that happen at a stop
Practice between lessons
Progress at this stage tracks almost exactly with whether this happens.
- Read an ayah stopping at each permitted mark
- Practise resuming from the right word
Rules that start to matter here
