A rhythmic pattern or cycle in Arabic music is called a "wazn" (Arabic: وزن; plural أوزان / awzān), literally a "measure". [1]A wazn is only used in musical genres with a fixed rhythmic-temporal organization including recurring measures, motifs, and meter or pulse. [2]
Mizan (Arabic: ميزان, lit. 'balance') is a concept in the Quran, which has been described as "the principle of the middle path" [1] and "the overarching divine principle for organizing our universe". [2] Azizah Y. al-Hibri argues that Mizan, as the "divine scale", could be transformed into Adl in human realm. [2]

The most common tuplet [9] is the triplet (German Triole, French triolet, Italian terzina or tripletta, Spanish tresillo).Whereas normally two quarter notes (crotchets) are the same duration as a half note (minim), three triplet quarter notes have that same duration, so the duration of a triplet quarter note is 2 ⁄ 3 the duration of a standard quarter note.
The use of asymmetrical rhythms – sometimes called aksak rhythm (the Turkish word for "limping") – also became more common in the 20th century: such metres include quintuple as well as more complex additive metres along the lines of 2+2+3 time, where each bar has two 2-beat units and a 3-beat unit with a stress at the beginning of each unit.
Takadimi is a system devised by Richard Hoffman, William Pelto, and John W. White in 1996 in order to teach rhythm skills. Takadimi, while utilizing rhythmic symbols borrowed from classical South Indian carnatic music, differentiates itself from this method by focusing the syllables on meter and western tonal rhythm.
Lyric setting is the process in songwriting of placing textual content in the context of musical rhythm, in which the lyrical meter and musical rhythm are in proper alignment as to preserve the natural shape of the language and promote prosody. Prosody is defined as "an appropriate relationship between elements."
In simple quintuple meter, the 5 may be replaced as 2+3 8 or 2+1+2 8 for example. [1] A time signature of 15 8, however, does not necessarily mean the music is in a compound quintuple meter. It may, for example, indicate a bar of triple meter in which each beat is subdivided into five parts.
