the pronunciation you mentioned are actually for the letters د and ض

  No, they aren't. د and ض are pronounced as dal and dahd respectively. I know this because I'm a native Arabic speaker. http://arabic.speak7.com/arabic_alphabet.htm http://arabic.speak7.com/arabic_alphabet.htm

    I'm a native arabic speaker too. I think I misunderstood your intention of using "dh" in "dhad", I would have used "thad." This misunderstanding stems from the fact that we're both trying to write a sound that cannot be expressed correctly in latin.

    This conversation would be much more productive if you both used IPA rather than trying to write sounds that don't exist in English :P
