For those who recite the Quran regularly, there are some letters(located at the top) that are supposed to assist the reader and help him know when and where to stop.

I hope you find this useful Insha Allah

At the end of each aya (usually denoted by the aya's number inside a stylized circle), it is wajib (mandatory) to stop.



(مـ) Mandatory stop (wajib). Note that this is different from (م) which is a pronunciation symbol used to denote idgham (pronouncing the adjacent letter as meem).



(قلى) It is better to stop (mustahab), but you may continue (ja'iz).



(ج) Neutral. You may stop and you may continue. Choice is left to the reader. Both are ja'iz.



(صلى) It is better to continue (mustahab), but you may stop (ja'iz).



(لا) Mandatory (wajib) to continue. ِAl-Nahl 16:32

(∴) These come in two. If you stop in one (ja'iz) you must continue in the other (wajib). You do not stop at both (wajib).



(س) You make a very short pause (without taking a breath), then continue. (ja'iz)
