open t letters (التَّاءَاتُ المَفْتُوحَة)

التعريف :

---

The feminine marker h, as in raḥmah, is written in some places in the Qur'an in the open t form, so as to look as raḥmat. If the word is the last in the utterance, some reciters pronounce it as h, so as to give the feminine marker h the same pronunciation, regardless of how it is written. Other reciters pronounce it as t when it is the last word in the utterance, so as to conform to the written form, e.g. yarjūn raḥmat (2: 218).
