n Urdu, the (ض) is pronounced "duaad", as opposed to the correct pronuncation, which is more of a "Daad" Incorrect, the pronunciation of (ض) in urdu is "Zuaad" and the pronunciation is similar to Zuay (ظ) and Zaa (ز) .. These all have same pronunciation. Which is why many ooold imams of mosques pronounce "Walazzaaleen". Another point is that the culprit here is NOT urdu, rather persian. In many fatawa books if you look about makhraj of (ض) they will mention that "if so and so reads it with "farsee lehja" (persian dialect) then.... "

In the next generation they decided to correct it and then it went the next extreme.. a "Daal" (د) pronunciation. So now many imaams are reciting is "Waladdaaleen"

Some of you would say, but that is correct sine its is "Daad" and not "Duad". But that is incorrect. (ض)'s makhraj is the side of the tounge and gums of Adraas (all the teeth on the side). There after the question of Daad and Duaad, It is infact "Duaad" but not exactly "Duaad" .

(ض) has these qualities

1. Jahr
2. Rikhwa
3. Musta'liya
4. Mutbaqa
5. Mustataala
6. Mufakhama

This Mutbaqa Quality gives (ض) a full mouth pronunciation. And this quality is a permenant quality, so (ض) will be full mouth all the times. This joined with the following give (ض) its rounded full continuous sound.

The quality of Istitaala is that when it is pronounce the voice should move throughout its makhraj. This makes the voice sort of rounded but not so round as to be seen as "closed Daal" what we call "Daal Pur"..

Also it is to be noted that It has its own rules, and only by those rules it becomes a (ض) so practice practice and practice..
