Examples of Idgham With Ghunnah in the Quran

Here are some examples of Idgham With Ghunnah in the Holy Quran:

Ayah: (وَجَعَلْنَا سِرَاجًا وَهَّاجًا )
Surah: An-Naba (78:13)
Translation: (wa ja’alna sirajan wahhaja)

Explanation: In this verse, the letter “و” (waw) in “وَهَّاجًا” comes after the tanween at the end of “سِرَاجًا”. The sound of the tanween (which resembles “an”) is merged into the “و” with a nasal sound, creating a smooth transition between the words.

Example 2:

Ayah: (جَزَاءً مِّن رَّبِّكَ عَطَاءً حِسَابًا )
Surah: An-Naba (78:36)
Translation: (jazaa’an mir rabbika ‘ata’an hisaba)

Explanation: In this example, the tanween in “جَزَاءً” is followed by the letter “م” (meem). The nasal sound (ghunnah) is applied, and the tanween merges into the “م”. The reader should emphasize the nasal sound, creating a continuous and fluent pronunciation.

Example 3:

Ayah: وَمِنَ النَّاسِ مَنْ يَقُولُ آمَنَّا بِاللَّـهِ وَبِالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ وَمَا هُمْ بِمُؤْمِنِينَ
Surah: Al-Baqarah (2:8)
Translation: (wa mina an-naasi man yaqulu aamannaa billaahi wa bil-yawmi al-aakhiri wa ma hum bimu’mineen)

Explanation: In this verse, the letter “ي” (ya) in “يَقُولُ” comes after the noon saakinah in “مَنْ”. The noon sound merges into the “ي” with a nasal sound, creating a smooth transition between the words.

Example 4 

Ayah: (إِنَّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا سَوَاءٌ عَلَيْهِمْ ءَأَنذَرْتَهُمْ أَمْ لَمْ تُنذِرْهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ)
Surah: Al-Baqarah (2:6)
Translation: (inna alladhina kafaru sawa’un ‘alayhim a’anđartahum am lam tunđirhum la yu’minun)

Explanation: In this verse, the letter “ل” (lam) in “لَا” comes after the noon saakinah in “تُنذِرْهُمْ”. The noon sound merges into the “ل” with a nasal sound, creating a smooth transition between the words.

Example 5

Ayah: (فَإِن لَّمْ يَسْتَجِيبُوا لَكَ فَاعْلَمْ أَنَّمَا يَتَّبِعُونَ أَهْوَاءَهُمْ ۚ وَمَنْ أَضَلُّ مِمَّنِ اتَّبَعَ هَوَاهُ بِغَيْرِ هُدًى مِّنَ اللَّـهِ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّـهَ لَا يَهْدِي الْقَوْمَ الظَّالِمِينَ)
Surah: Al-Qasas (28:50) 

Translation: (fa in lam yastajeebū laka fa’lam annamā yattabi’ūna ahwā’ahum waman ađallu mimmani ittaba’a hawāhu bighayri hudan mina Allāh ʾinnallāha lā yahdī l-qawma aż-żālimīn)

Explanation: In this verse, the letter “ل” (lam) in “لَّمْ” comes after the noon saakinah in “إِن”. The noon sound merges into the “ل” with a nasal sound, creating a seamless transition between the words.
