Intermediate Madd

Madd Al-Munfasil (Separated): Madd letter at end of one word, hamza at beginning of next word.
Why "separated": The Madd letter and the hamza are in two different words.
Also called Permissible (Jaa'iz) due to existence of qasr modes in other readings.

Duration in Hafs: 4 or 5 counts (via Shatibiyyah). Via Tayyibah, qasr (2 counts) is also permitted.

Examples:

• Alif + hamza: إِنَّا أَنْزَلْنَاهُ، يَا أَيُّهَا، وَمَا أُمِرُوا، هَا أَنْتُمْ
• Waw + hamza: قُوا أَنْفُسَكُمْ، كَانُوا أَكْثَرَ
• Ya + hamza: فِي أَنْفُسِكُمْ، الَّذِي أَنْزَلَ

vs. Muttasil: Muttasil is in one word (جَاءَ); Munfasil is across two words (إِنَّا أَنْزَلْنَا).

Note: If you stop on the first word, Munfasil disappears — natural Madd (2 counts) returns.
