أَسْكِنُوهُنَّ مِنْ حَيْثُ سَكَنْتُمْ مِنْ وُجْدِكُمْ Lodge them [in a section] of where you dwell out of your means and do not harm them in order to oppress them. And if they should be pregnant, then spend on them until they give birth. And if they breastfeed for you, then give them their payment and confer among yourselves in the acceptable way; but if you are in discord, then there may breastfeed for the father another woman. (Sahih International)

For instance, if the word 'حُبّ' (hubb) is pronounced as 'حُبٌّ' (hubbun) within the context of the Quran, our audio will reflect this specific pronunciation. It's important to understand that while 'hubb' is the general term, the variations you hear in our audio are intentional, aiming to mirror the exact pronunciation as it appears in the Quran. This approach ensures that learners get an authentic experience of Quranic Arabic pronunciation, enhancing their understanding and connection to the holy text.
