Ṭā’, ẓā’, ʿayn and ghayn
Two letters with a loop and an upright stroke, and two whose shape changes most with their place in a word.
AI ne ya rubuta kuma ya duba
AI ne ya rubuta waɗannan darussa kuma ya duba su, kuma har yanzu babu wani malamin Larabci da ya karanta su. Ayoyin, da ma’anoninsu da nazarin kowace kalma an ɗauko su daga tushensu, waɗanda aka ambata a inda aka nuna su.
An rubuta wannan darasi da Turanci da Bengali kawai, don haka ana nuna shi a nan da Turanci.
This lesson teaches two more pairs. Again, in each pair the second letter is the first with a dot above.

Ṭā’ and ẓā’
Ṭā’ is the loop of ṣād with an upright stroke rising from it. Ẓā’ is the same with one dot above. Unlike ṣād, they have no bowl at the end of a word: their shape hardly changes with their place.
Ṭā’ is not tā’, and ẓā’ is neither zāy nor dhāl. The transliteration writes them with a dot under the letter, ṭ and ẓ.
ʿAyn and ghayn
ʿAyn and ghayn change shape more than any letter so far. Alone, they have a small open curve at the top and a deep curve below the line. At the start of a word only the small open curve is drawn. In the middle of a word the curve closes into a small solid triangle or loop, and at the end of a word that closed head is drawn with the deep curve beneath it.
Ghayn is ʿayn with one dot above. The transliteration writes ʿayn as a small raised mark, ‘, and ghayn as gh.
In the Qur’ān
The last verse of al-Fātiḥah has ṭā’, ʿayn and ghayn. Find ʿayn at the start of a word, and again in the middle of one.
An nuna haruffa da alamomin da wannan darasi ya ambata a cikin ayar.
Hanyar waɗanda Ka yi wa ni'ima, ba waɗanda aka yi wa fushi ba, kuma ba ɓatattu ba.[1]

Ẓā’ is the rarest of these four. Here it is in the middle of a word.
