Abstract

This study conducts a phonetic analysis of Arabic letters (Sifat al-Huruf) in the 1000 Dinars Verse, emphasizing their articulatory features and phonological properties. It explores how intrinsic and extrinsic traits of the letters affect pronunciation, clarity, and meaning in Quranic recitation. Employing descriptive and comparative methods, the research examines articulation points (Makhraj) and phonetic attributes (Sifat) within the verse. The findings aim to deepen understanding of Arabic phonetics in Quranic contexts and offer valuable insights for scholars and learners in Tajweed, phonology, and broader linguistic analysis.
