Rows 1 and 3: ه ك م ي
ه, ك, م, يThe letters are (ه) Haa, (ك) Kaaf, (م) Miim, and (ي) Yaa. Haa (ه) makes the English "h" sound. It is never silent. Kaaf (ك) makes an English "k" sound. Miim (م) makes the "m" sound. Yaa (ي) makes the consonant "y" sound as in "you".
The unique thing about ه (haa) is that in most styles of writing all its forms look different. Recall that every Arabic letter has 4 forms (usually only 2 significantly differing forms).
