2- Waaw as a Long Vowel

Waaw Maddiyyah (Prolonged) ‫ﺔ‬‫ﺩﻴ‬ ‫ﻤ‬ ‫ﻭﺍﻭ‬

Al-qiraa'ah ُ‫ﺓ‬‫ﺍﺀ‬‫ﻘﺭ‬ ‫ﺍﻝﹾ‬

Phonetics
- Pronunciation: Like oo (moon) in English.
- Exit: The interior or the chest area.

Waaw Maddiyah ( Prolonged )

- If the letter Waaw (‫ ) و‬comes after a letter with Dammah and has no mark
above or below it, then this Waaw‘ will be pronounced like a double Dammah
As "oo" in "moon" ( bu ‫ﺏ‬
 is short but boo ‫ﻭ‬‫ﺒ‬ is long)
- We call it "Maddiyyah" or prolonged because its time is double the time of
Dammah.
- An Arabic word can't start with Waaw Maddiyyah because Madd is like Sukoon.
