The lam of the name of The Majesty
The definition of Tafkheem: Fattening
Its applied definition: It is a heaviness that enters the body of the letter, so that the mouth is filled with its reverberation (echo). The method of making a letter have the characteristic of tafkheem is: elevating the posterior tongue to the roof of the mouth (soft palate), creating more space between the roof of the mouth and the bottom of the mouth, and focusing the pressure of the letter to the roof of the mouth.
The linguistic definition of Tarqeeq : Thinness
Its applied definition: It is a thinness that enters the body of the letter, so the mouth is not filled with its reverberation (echo).
The Laam of the Glorious name of Allah sometimes has tafkheem and sometimes tarqeeq, depending on the pronounced vowel on the letter preceding the Laam. The Alif (Long fathah) that follows the Laam will follow the Laam in tafkheem or tarqeeq because as stated above, the alif follows the letter preceding it. It is therefore necessary to make sure both the Laam of the Glorious name of Allah and the accompany Alif have both tafkheem and tarqeeq together, according to the rules stated below.
The lam of the Glorious name of Allah has tafkheem in the following states:
1. If what precedes the name of Allah has a fat-ha, such as in:
