wao is silent in both. It is present there as convention foe writing the word in arabic.

msabirawan commented 3 years ago

How you can pronounce both word as same. When there is harkat over wao. It can't be silent. When there is no harkat it can.

In arabic (uthmani) script when there is standing fatha (khari zabar) it comes as an addition to the fatha (zabar) already in the word. So the standing fatha (khari zabar on wao) is actually for daal. This means that we have to sctreach daal to 2 cound (daa instead of da) I would u should use the srcipt (i.e. indopak if im not mistaken) that u r familiar with. There is no difference otherwise. Let me show u another example.

https://quran.com/1 in rabb il aalamine on ain there are both zabar and khari zabar. thats just how arabic script is.

I hope ur misunderstanding is cleared.

In quran.com go to settings, then select font as Indopak. These are two different scripts with different marks but dive same pronunciation.
