How to pronounce ح?

The Arabic letter ح (Ḥāʾ) is a voiceless, deep, throaty "h" sound made by constricting the back of the throat, unlike the soft English "h," and is often compared to forcefully sighing, clearing your throat gently, or blowing on a mirror to fog it up. To pronounce it, relax your throat, open your mouth slightly, and exhale air from deep within, creating a harsh, breathy sound without vocal cord vibration.
