Laam Shamsiya and lam Qamariya rules | Noor Academy

Today we will learn the rules of Laam Shamsiya and lam Qamariya in a simple and easy-to-understand way, but first, let’s understand what they both mean.

Shamsiya in Arabic.

Laam Shamsiya is used to call the lam which is written but not pronounced.

lam Qamariya in Arabic.

lam Qamariya is the lam that is both written and pronounced.

lam Shamsiya and Qamariya.

What do we mean by saying lam Shamsiya and laam Qamariyyah? We call it the second letter of (AL) which is the lam Shamsiya or Kamariya based on some rules.

In the lam Qamariya words like “the moon=,القمر” you will notice that the pronunciation of the word didn’t change at all. Therefore, it is called a static lam, why? Because it doesn’t change the movement of the letter that comes after it.

While in the case of lam al Shamsiya you will notice that the lam is not pronounced like when saying “the sun= الشمس” when you read it will be read “اشمس”. We remove the lam and put some stress on the following letter.

lam shamsiya and lam qamariya meaning.

In the Arabic language in order to define the noun, we add “AL” before it. The lam is called Shamsiya or Qamariya based on some rules.

First, laam Shamsiya and Qamariya differ in pronunciation. The Shamsiya is written but not pronounced, and as we said “al” is added to define the noun. But when we read the word, we will notice that the lam is not pronounced and that the letter that follows it is stressed.

Arabic lam Qamariya is both written and pronounced without changing anything.

 

lam Shamsiya and lam Qamariya letters

now we will learn about what is called Shamsiya letters and lam Qamariya letters. For example, in the word “sun” when we add “al” it becomes “the sun= الشمس” but pronounced “Ashmam”. We didn’t pronounce the lam here.

When we add “al” to the word “moon” it becomes “the moon= القمر” and is pronounced “Alqamar”. As you can see the lam is pronounced here without changing anything.

 

Now lets’ see which letters belongs to the lam shamsiya and which belongs to al qamariya:

The shamsiya letters are: [t / th / d / y / r / g / s / sh / r / z / i / y / n / l]

ت ث د ذ ر ز س ش ص ض ط ظ ل ن

The kamariya letters are: [a / b / c / h / k / p / g / q / s / k / m / e / f / j]

lam shamsiya and lam qamariya examples.

To understand more we will give you some examples two show you the difference in pronunciation between the lam Shamsiya and Kamariya when they come in a word. The first example is “the door=الباب,” how will you read it? It is read “albab=الباب  “, as you can see, here we pronounced the lam which means that AL here is lam Qamariya.

The letter that came after the lam didn’t change at all; therefore, the vowel used with AL- Qamariya is called Sukoon. We understand that when we see AL followed with one of the Qamariya letters then the lam is pronounced.

Another example is the word “the lesson= الدرس” the letter that follows al is د which is one of the Shamsiya letters. Then we will pronounce it as follows “Adars”, the lam is removed and there is a stress on the letter that follows it.

To sum what we said, lam Shamsiya affects the word and it is not pronounced, the letter that follows it is stressed. While in the Qamariya the lam is pronounced and doesn’t change the word and the movement of the following letter doesn’t change.
