In إِيَّاكَ, yāʾ is doubled and followed by an alif madd in «يَّا». Preserve both the doubled articulation and the correct alif duration; do not add ghunnah to yāʾ. In نَعْبُدُ, articulate ʿayn clearly from its throat position.
Meaning matters: iyyāka is the fronted object of naʿbudu, “You alone we worship.” An unnecessary stop between them disrupts a tightly connected expression; if breath fails, restart at a suitable point.
