Lesson-2
Haroof e Murakabat | Joining Letters
What is Murakabat | Joining letters?
Murakabat or Joining letters is the attachment or combination of two or more than two letters. While a letter joins another letter, it may change the different shape. So, one letter may have different shapes. Many letters of the Arabic alphabet have a similar shape but are different from one another by the position of Dots.
How to Read?
In this lesson, student needs to read joint letters separately one by one. Each letter has its own sound. The shape of the letter needs to recognize in different places. The letter may be written short-handed and customize for joining another letter. So, shape also changes in this way accordingly. Each alphabet having Dot must be recognized by dot proper placement. So that the dot of the letter must help in recognizing the letter. The student should do practice with a different alphabet and joining.
