SOUND WHEN IT EXPLAINS: HAMZ BETWEEN REALIZATION (TAHQIQ) AND FACILITATION (TAKHFIF) AS A MECHANISM FOR CONSTRUCTING QURANIC MEANING: A STUDY IN THE BOOK NIKAT AL-QUR’AN BY ABU MUHAMMAD AL-JAWLI

Hamz, Quranic Meaning, Al-Jawli, Nikat al-Qur’an BookAbstract
This study examines the phenomenon of the hamza between realization and reduction in Qur’anic readings, through an applied analysis of selected examples from Nikat al-Qur’an by Abu Muhammad al-Jawli. It aims to clarify the phonetic and linguistic foundations underlying the variation among reciters in the articulation of the hamza, and to identify al-Jawli’s methodological approach in presenting, explaining, and occasionally preferring certain readings. The study adopts a descriptive-analytical method, tracing Qur’anic instances of the hamza and analyzing their modes of articulation in light of established Arabic phonetic principles. The findings indicate that variation in hamza articulation constitutes a phonetic and performative difference governed by systematic linguistic rules, without affecting semantic meaning, and that al-Jawli’s work represents a significant contribution combining transmitted recitation with linguistic analysis.
