'''The Rhyming Quality'''


The rhymes discovered via the application of Old Hijazi to the Qur'anic Consonantal Text (QCT) can be broken down into two categories or types of rhymes:
'''Classes of Old Hijazi internal rhymes'''


'''High quality:''' This type of rhyme occurs when the two rhyming words share the same final vowel and final consonant, e.g.:
1- Individual instances. This includes 78 unique examples (94 with repitition) where the rhyming words share identical final consonants. As for examples where the rhyming words don't share identical final consonants, they were so many that only the strongest 17 unique instances were counted, however there are many more than this.


عليم حكيم  ʕalīm ḥakīm (15 attestations)
2- Verse-final attributes of Allah. The majority of internal rhymes in the Quran fall under this type. Of this type, there are 7 (50 with repitition) examples  where the rhyming words share identical final consonants. As for examples where the rhyming words don't share identical final consonants, there are 25 unique ones, 234 counting repeated occurenses.


The two words share the same final vowel (ī) and the same final consonant (m). The fact that the rest of the two words share the same vowel and the same arrangement of consonants makes the rhyming quality perfect:
<br />
 
Consonant + a + consonant + ī + m
 
'''Normal quality:''' This type of rhyme occurs when the two rhyming words don’t share the same final consonant, but they share the same vowels and the same arrangement of consonants, e.g.:
 
عزيز حكيم ʕazīz ḥakīm (13 attestations)
 
The two words follow the same scheme: Consonant + a + Consonant + ī + Consonant
 
 
'''Classes of Old Hijazi internal rhymes'''


1- Individual instances. This includes 76 unique high quality Old Hijazi internal rhymes. Including repeated instances there are 94 such instances. As for individual instances of normal quality internal rhymes, they were so many that this articles includes only the strongest 22 unique instances, however there are many more than this.

Classical Arabic: wal-lāhu ʕalīmun biḍh-ḍhālimīn.
Note: Due to the strong similarity between the "n" and "m" sounds, the Quran doesn't distinguish between the two when it comes to rhymes as seen for example in the first Surah of the Quran whose verse-final words are: al-ʕālamīn, ar-raḥīm, ad-dīn, nastaʕīn, al-mustaqīm, aḍ-ḍāllīn.

Note: Due to the vast size of the Hadith corpus, it wasn’t possible for Idris Al-Arabi to scan the entirety of it for internal rhymes the same way he did with the Quran. Since that prayers tend to be poetic, Idris looked into Hadith collections of prayers and found most of the following internal rhymes.
