Let’s test ourselves now since we know the long vowels

 

 

 

 

The first letter is a’. What’s that small alif? It’s another way of writing the long vowel alif. It becomes aa’ the word reads Aa ma na

 

رِجَالٌ

Next example. This reads rijaalun, so it’s not rijalun it’s rijaalun with a long vowel

 

عَلَى

What does this read? First letter is a’. Second letter is la. What’s the 3^rd letter? Is it Ya? No, that’s alif maqsurah.
It’s another way of writing the long vowel. It reads ‘alaa

 

فِيهِ

This reads Fii hi. You can tell the ya (ي) is a long vowel because there are no marks on it and the letter before it has a kasra.
If I put a kasra on the Yaa فِيِهِ it won’t be a long vowel anymore and won’t read fiihi. It will read fiyihi

 

تُرَابًا

This reads Turaaban

 

وُجُوهٌ

This reads Wujuuhun

 

مَالًا

This reads Maalan

 

أَثِيمٍ

This reads Atheemin

 

عَاءِلًا

This looks a little tricky. It reads, Aa’ I Lan Aa’ilan

 

ءَاوَى

This reads aawaa

 

 

This one is very tricky. Lets split the word so it looks easy. لءا   
This is the same word. It reads La aa.

If I change the position of the hamza to here لأ it would read different.

 It would read la a. It becomes a short vowel. Do you see the difference between the two? One hamza is before the alif and the other is on the alif. The one before the alif is the long vowel.

 

This last one is a tricky one. It reads ma aa ban. Notice how we stretched the aa.

Practice some more examples so it becomes easy for you
