التعريف :

---

The full opening of the reciter’s mouth as he pronounces a sound followed by the long vowel ‘ā’. This is not permissible in the Qur'an, and does not exist in Arabic. It exists only in some non-Arabic languages. One example is the velarization of ‘dahā’ in ‘wa alfayā sayyidahā’ (12: 25)
