Sakin Nun When a letter has the diacritical mark Sukun over it, it is pronounced with no following vowel. For example, [ مِن ] with Sukun over Nun [ ن ] is pronounced "min", while [ مِنَ ] with Fathah over Nun [ ن ] is pronounced "mina". When a Nun [ ن ] has a printed Sukun (in the `Uthmanic calligraphy of the Qur"an copies), it will be pronounced sharp and clear. The Sakin Nun [ ن ] is pronounced sharp and clear when followed by one of the letters [ ء - هـ - ع - ح - غ - خ ]. Tanwin is also pronounced sharp and clear when followed by one of the letters [ ء - هـ - ع - ح - غ - خ ]. |
