USAGE: stress in Arabic feminine forms

Shalom.

I've recently resumed work over my a posteriori Semitic project. I found my
Arabic resources rather scarse in certain details. Who can help me? I want to
know where we put stress in Arabic feminine forms ending in ta-marbuta, both in
high style (when pronounced as [-atun]) and standard colloquial ([-a]).
For example:
_wa:si3atun / wa:si3a_ 'wide (f.sn)'. Where shall I put stress?
