Taq Kasra

Taq Kasra is an important mark used in Arabic script, representing a specific vowel sound called "kasra," which is similar to the short "i" sound in English. It looks like a small diagonal line beneath a letter. When added, it indicates that the letter should be pronounced with this vowel sound, altering the word's meaning or grammatical function. Taq Kasra helps with correct pronunciation and understanding of Arabic words, especially in poetry and formal texts, by guiding readers on how to vocalize the letters properly.
