ذَبَّ — ذَبَبْتُ
Translation: assimilated and unassimilated forms from the same root.
Rule 2: The first consonant that is assimilated is the mudgham; the second, which receives it, is the mudgham fīhi. In ذَبَّ, the first bāʾ is assimilated into the second.
Rule 3: Consonants with nearby articulation may affect one another in pronunciation while remaining separately written. This differs from complete assimilation of identical radicals.
Rule 4: When adjacent consonants are genuinely identical and the conditions hold, a shaddah can express their full assimilation in both writing and speech, as in ذَبَّ. The distinction prevents treating every phonetic similarity as identical spelling.
