What is the correct Arabic pronunciation of “zuad”?

Questioner: As-Salaam-Alaikum. Wa-Alaikum-Salaam. My question is with regards to an Arabic pronunciation. I have noticed that most non-Ahmadis pronounce Dwaad as Dwaad, but most Ahmadis pronounce it as Dwaad. Does that mean…

Huzoor (rh): In this case, the non-Ahmadis are right and the Ahmadis are wrong. The true Arabic pronunciation is Dwaad, which even I can’t pronounce correctly. But it is positively closer to Daal than to Zaal. So, the non-Ahmadis who pronounce it as Dwaad, they are definitely closer to the correct pronunciation.
