529% Whether Arabic texts are vocalized or not is essentially a matter of
530% personal choice. So one may use |voc| mode and decide not to write
531% vowels except at some particular places for disambiguation purposes,
532% or use |novoc| mode, not write vowels---as |novoc| normally does not
533% show them---except, again, where disambiguation is needed.\footnote{See
534% below **}
535%
536% However, it may be wise to always write the vowels, leaving to the
537% various modes provided by \package{arabluatex} to take care of
538% showing or not showing the vowels.
539%
540% That said, there is no need to write the short vowels

542% except in the following cases:
543% \begin{compactitem}
544% \item at the commencement of a word, to indicate that a connective
545% \arb[trans]{'alif} is needed, with the exception of the article (see
