Dhafig

Dhafig is a term used in Islamic jurisprudence that refers to a specific rule regarding the recitation of Quranic verses. It indicates that certain verses should be recited with a particular prolongation or emphasis, often to enhance pronunciation or reflect the verse’s significance. Essentially, dhafig guides the proper articulation and emphasis in reciting the Quran to ensure accuracy, respect, and proper conveyance of the sacred text’s meaning. It is part of the broader principles of Tajweed, which governs the correct pronunciation during Quran recitation.
