Al waqf and Ibtida Part4 الوقف والأبتداء الجزء الرابع
The Beginning (Al-Ibtidaa) الابتداء
In the knowledge of scholars of recitation, is referring to recitation after cutting off recitation or stopping.
The beginning is only by choice, in contrast to the stop, which may be by choice or compulsion. For that reason it is demanded of the reader when beginning, that he start his recitation with an independent phrase that conveys the intended meaning, not attached to that which precedes it grammatically.
Its rule: It is allowed to begin with what comes after a complete or satisfactory stop under any circumstances, and allowed to start with that which comes after a good stop, only if it is the end of a verse ,This is only after Al-waqf (stop )not after al-Qat‟ )cutting off ( recitation).
The beginning can be divided into two types:
The allowed beginning الابتداء الجائز
It is starting with an independent phrase that has clear meaning ,The meaning that Allah desires, and does not contradict it.
2- The beginning that is not allowed الابتداء الغير جائز
It is the beginning that cancels out the intended meaning, or corrupts it, or changes it.
Many scholars divide Alibtidaa’ as alwaqf
The allowed beginning الابتداء الجائز
1-Complete تام
A-Any start of a surah
B- the start after a complete stop Examples:start with ayah no.6 in surat Al-Baqarah. انَّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا سَوَاءٌ not attached to the previous ayah
2-Sufficient كاف
Example : start with ayah no. 7 in surat Al-Baqarah خَتَمَ اللَّهُ عَلَىٰ قُلُوبِهِمْ وَعَلَىٰ سَمْعِهِمْ ۖ وَعَلَىٰ أَبْصَارِهِمْ غِشَاوَةٌ Attached to the previous ayah in meaning.
3-Good حسن
Example: In surat As-Safaat aya 138 after stopping on the previous ayah وَإِنَّكُمْ لَتَمُرُّونَ عَلَيْهِم مُّصْبِحِينَ
And indeed, you pass by them in the morning.
– The two ayat attached grammatically and in meaning.
2- The beginning that is not allowed الابتداء الغير جائز
1-Repulsive قبيح
repulsive beginning would be when starting with a word that leads to a meaning other than that Allah, The Exalted, wants, or a meaning that is in disagreement with our creed
Example: Start with اتَّخَذَ اللَّهُ وَلَدًا سُبْحَانَهُ Allah has taken a son.” (Astaghfirullah)
Without saying first “They say” وَقَالُوا
