Editor's Notes

  • #3 With intention, Du’aa, and then support of Allah… NO PROBLEM INSHA-ALLAH.
  • #5 Evil is like darkness; Allah is the Lord of daybreak who can remove any evil or damage (like the morning which removes the darkness of night).
  • #6 3 types of evils: Darkness; Magic; Envy None of these can be seen by a person.
  • #9 Can’t avoid these! May Allah help us prepare for these. It is not the Arabic knowledge but one’s faith and actions during his life which will help him answer these questions.
  • #15 Make sure everyone takes one or two deep breaths before they continue with Grammar!
  • #16 Show the rules first. We will use all our senses. It is called TPI or TPR. It really enhances the learning. And note that this is not limited to these 6 pronouns. It has much more to do with all the verb forms that we will learn. You have spared so much time and came all the way. Don’t listen to Shaitaan. Don’t be shy to use these directions. We are learning the words of Qur’an here. If you use them, your learning will be easier and quicker. Repeat it using the following sequence. A: Arabic; Tr; Translation T(A+Tr) – S(A+Tr): 3 time T(A)-S(Tr): 3 time (once with low pitch and then with high pitch) T(AA) – S(AA): 3 times (once with low pitch and then with high pitch) T+S do it together; Better form is that T shows the signs and students say in chorus. 3 times.
  • #17 If you have time, let them repeat all. Repeat the following sequence for each of the four prepositions. A: Arabic; Tr; Translation T(A+Tr) – S(A+Tr): 3 time T(A)-S(Tr): 3 time (once with low pitch and then with high pitch) T(AA) – S(AA): 3 times (once with low pitch and then with high pitch) T+S do it together; Better form is that T shows the signs and students say in chorus. 3 times. ___
  • #18 Repeat the following sequence for each of the four prepositions. A: Arabic; Tr; Translation T(A+Tr) – S(A+Tr): 3 time T(A)-S(Tr): 3 time (once with low pitch and then with high pitch) T(AA) – S(AA): 3 times (once with low pitch and then with high pitch) T+S do it together; Better form is that T shows the signs and students say in chorus. 3 times.
  • #19 Flowers are chosen here to represent good deeds; somebody did the good work. InshaAllah we all did some good and beg Allah to accept them. Keep this in mind while doing the ‘fa’ala’ exercises. He did (good work); They did (good work), … Repeat the following sequence. T(A+Tr) – S(A+Tr): 3 time T(A)-S(Tr): 3 time (once with low pitch and then with high pitch) T(AA) – S(AA): 3 times (once with low pitch and then with high pitch) T+S do it together; Better form is that T shows the signs and students say in chorus. 3 times.
  • #21 Don’t forget the tips. The teacher should ask the students / participants to list them. Try to implement them as much as you can. By the way, they are valid for all types of studies, not just Qur’anic Arabic.
  • #26 LET US TAKE THE example of words: Alladhee, the one who. Alladheena, those who. Do the exercise by repeating these words!!! At least you will make them memorize these!
