Punctuation marks (symbols) in Printed Nobel Qur'an
There are many other punctuation marks that generally appear in the middle or end of a verse. The detail of this is beyond the scope of this course.
As a general rule for the beginner, make a pause whenever one find such marks namely لا, م ز , ج , ص , ط, ق , قف , مع , وقف النبي , صلي , وقفه , سكته
﴾ ﴿
Waqf e Taam (Perfect Stop) represents end of a ayah. a reciter ought to pause here - it is permissible to continue without a pause provided that reciter is very familiar with other rules
م
The Compulsory Stop sign of “Waqf e Laazim” (imperative) a reciter must make full pause here - failure to do so the entire meaning of the sentence may alter radically.
لا ۙ
Do not pause here, it is permissible to pause if لا sign appears at end of ayah.- if one not able to read continuously one can stop at any place including لا but while continuing, one should repeat one or more words before a place which one stopped.
