Arabic
إِيَّاكَ نَعْبُدُ وَإِيَّاكَ نَسْتَعِينُ
🌍 Translation (Tarjuma – English)
“You alone we worship, and You alone we ask for help.”
ترجمہ (اردو)
“ہم تیری ہی عبادت کرتے ہیں اور تجھ ہی سے مدد مانگتے ہیں۔”
🟢 Tajweed Explanation
- إِيَّاكَ (Iyyāka) Contains shaddah (ّ) on يّ → hold the sound slightly longer (double “y” sound). Stretch إِي with Madd Ṭabī‘ī (natural elongation) → 2 counts.
- نَعْبُدُ (Na‘budu) Clear pronunciation of ‘Ayn (ع) from the throat. No major elongation rules here.
- وَإِيَّاكَ (Wa iyyāka) Same tajweed rules as إِيَّاكَ: Madd on إِي Shaddah on يّ
- نَسْتَعِينُ (Nasta‘īn) Contains Madd Ṭabī‘ī on عِي → stretch for 2 counts. Again, pronounce ‘Ayn (ع) clearly from the throat.
🔑 Key Tajweed Rules in This Ayah
- Madd Ṭabī‘ī (Natural elongation) – stretch vowels for 2 counts.
- Shaddah (ّ) – emphasize/double the letter.
- Makharij (Articulation points) – especially for ع (‘Ayn).
