Rule 2 concerns two hamzahs occurring in the same word when the second one is quiescent. The second hamzah must be replaced by the weak letter corresponding to the first hamzah's vowel.

A first hamzah with fatḥah gives alif, with ḍammah gives wāw, and with kasrah gives yāʾ. Unlike the preceding optional rule, this is described as obligatory in the specified setting.
