The mīm appears in five different words in 17 various places: الم  (six times in the Quran), طسم – المر – المص ,  twice in the Qurʾān) and  (seven times in the Quran). The mīm will be madd lazim Mukhaffaf in all the places it appears.

The ʿayn is found at the start of Sūrahs Maryam – كهيعص   and Shura  عسق – حم   In both places it will be madd lazim Mukhaffa

The sin presents itself in five places: طسم  ظسم) at the start of Surahs al Shuʿara  and al-Qaṣaṣ), طس- يس – عسق

• In the طسم the sin will be madd lazim Muthaqqal
• In يس – طس ) during waṣl and waqf via the ṭarهq of the Shaṭibiyyah –  58)

TRANSLATION:

55. And all besides the tripled letters, not (and besides) the Alif, then its madd is known to be madd ṭabīʿī

COMMENTARY:

After discussing all the ḥuruf al-Muqaṭṭaʿāt, which consist of three letters, the author intends to discuss those ḥurūf al-Muqaṭṭaʿāt which do not consist of three letters

Thus he excludes the previously mentioned كَـمْ عَسَلْ نَقَصْ  as they are all made up of three letters. He also excludes the Alif found in  الر – الم

etc. This is because the alif is also made up of three letters (أُلِفْ ) but no madd (pull) is made in it since the middle letter is not a letter of madd.

قدِ  – verily

TRANSLATION:

56. And those (letters) are also at the beginning of the sūrahs. In the expression حَيًّ طَاهِر  they are confined.

COMMENTARY:

These madd Tabiʿi, which are found at the beginning of Surahs are contained in the combination حَيًّ طَاهِر  The ḥāʾ at the start of  حم The yāʾ from كهيعص And يس

The Taʾ appears in طه – طسم and طس 

1. The Alif from the phrase حَيًّ طَاهِر  is excluded for two reasons:  madd ṭabīʿī is not made in it unlike the remaining five letters.
2.  No Madd is possible in it due to the absence of a letter of Madd in it.

Therefore, in some prints instead of حَيًّ طَاهِر  one would find حَيًّ طَاهِر  َ) without the alif).

After understanding this, it is possible to say that the ḥurūf almuqaṭṭaʿāt can be divided into four different types:

1. Those in which madd lazim is made, to the duration of Tul – كَـمْ عَسَلْ نَقَصْ
2. those in which lazim is made, allowing tawassuṭ  and qaṣr  – also  ع
