IMPORTANT GUIDELINES Prerequisite: You should be able to read Arabic text. Duration: 9 hours (Preferably in 2 to 3 sessioss) Some Guidelines for using the Short Course Effectively: We will learn with love, smiles, and relaxation. This is a thoroughly interactive short course therefore listen attentively, and participate continuously. We are practicing so there is no problem even if you do mistakes. Nobody learns without first committing mistakes. The one who practices more will get more even if he/she commits mistake. Remember the golden rule: I listen, I forget. I see, I remember. I practice, I learn. Remember the 3 levels of learning: o o o Listening (without paying attention). Your ear hears noises. Listening carelessly or with doubt. Listening interactively; listening with HEART; responding immediately to the points. Space after MOTIVATIONAL AND LEARNING TIPS is left blank for you to take notes and add other things to it based on your experience. If the space is not enough, you may use back side of the paper. Each lesson is followed by Grammar. Grammar contents is not directly related with the main lesson simply because it will be too complicated to analyze grammatical aspects of the lesson in the first class. It may require separate Grammar teaching before we start studying Surahs. Therefore, Grammar lessons build up your Arabic Grammar in parallel to vocabulary that you learn in the main lesson. DON T FORGET TO DO THE 7 HOMEWORKS AS WILL BE EXPLAINED DURING THE COURSE. And MOST IMPORTANT of all: Don t forget to carry that vocabulary sheet in your pocket/purse and refer to it at least 5 times during a day. The 7 Homeworks are: Two for Tilawat: 1. At least FIVE minutes recitation (for the beginner) of the Qur'an from the Mushaf. 2. At least FIVE minutes recitation of the Qur'an from memory during activities such as walking. Two for Study: 3. At least FIVE minutes study of the Word-for- Word translation (or from this book, for the beginners). 4. 30 seconds study of the vocabulary booklet or sheet, preferably before or after every Salah or any other suitable intervals. ALWAYS carry the vocabulary booklet with you till you complete the course. Two for Listening and talking to others: 5. Listening to a tape which contains these recitations with word-by-word meanings (in your car while driving and at your home while doing household chores). You can record the contents of this course yourselves into a tape, in case a recorded tape is not available. 6. Talking to your colleague for 1 minute every day regarding the lesson (if you are studying it in a class). The last one for using it: 7. Recitation of the last 14 Surahs in rotation in the Sunan and Nawafil of daily Salah. ر ب And two more homeworks on Du'aa (i) for self and (ii) for others that Allah helps us all ;ز د ن ي ع ل م ا to fulfill our duties towards Qur'an. The best way to learn is to teach, and the best way to teach someone is to turn him into a teacher.

Lesson 1 Introduction Objectives of the Short Course Convince that Qur an is easy to learn Encourage to recite Qur an again and again with understanding Help in interacting with the Qur an (to bring it into our lives) To pray Salah effectively To generate the team spirit Understanding Qur an vs. Learning Arabic Language (4 Major Differences in our approach) Start from Salah (Why use any other text, when you want to understand the Qur an) Focus on Reception (listening and reading More Focus on Vocabulary More Focus on Sarf and less on Nahw GRAMMAR: Learn these words using TPI (Total Physical Interaction) as explained in the left box below: When you say ه و (He), point the index finger of the right hand towards your right as if that person is sitting on your right. When you say ه م (They), point all the four fingers of your right hand towards your right. In a class, both the teacher and the student should practice this together. When you say أ ن ت (You), point the index finger of your right hand towards your front. When you say أ ن ت م (All of you), point all the four fingers of your right hand towards your students. In a class, the teacher should point his fingers towards the students and the students should point their fingers towards the teacher.

For the first 3 times, practice these 6 forms with translation, i.e., just show and say ه و he, ه م they, أ ن ت you, أ ن ت م you all, we. Since you will be showing what you mean by ن ح ن I, أ ن ا your hand, you don t need to translate each of them after 3 cycles. Just say ه م أ ن ت أ ن ت م أ ن ا ن ح ن.ه و That is the immediate benefit of using TPI, among many others. Continue the above steps without translating these words. Just Five minutes of your practice using TPI will make the learning of these six words and many other things extremely easy!!! Also note that while practicing, don t worry about learning the terminologies. Just focus on these six words and their meanings. Pronouns (with examples) He is a Muslim. They are Muslims.

Same thing is expressed in different languages using different prepositions. For example: االله ا نلا I believed in Allah; ا م ن ت ب ا الله (in urdu) The above 3 sentences in 3 different languages express the same fact, i.e., I believed, but the preposition in each language is different in their basic meanings. For the same language, a preposition may be or may not be required depending upon the verb being used. Example: I said to him; I told him. 2. Sometimes, a preposition may be there in Arabic but not required in English (or any other) language. For example, entering the religion of Allah Forgive me ي د خ لو ن ف ي د ين االله ا غف ر ل ي 3. Sometimes, a preposition may not be there in Arabic but required in English. I ask forgiveness of Allah and have mercy on me ا س ت غ ف ر االله و ار ح م ن ي 4.

The same procedure of fingers pointing can be used for practicing the different conjugations of Imperfect tense verbs also. To distinguish between the past tense and the present tense, you may pronounce all the past tense forms and move your right hand at a lower level while pointing towards right, in front, or yourself.

The rules for making imperative and prohibitive forms of a verb. When you say ا ف ع ل, point the index finger of your right hand in front of you and move your hand down from a raised position as if you are giving a command to, ا ف ع ل وا somebody standing in front of you. When you say the same action can be repeated by all the four fingers of the right hand. When you say لا ت ف ع ل, point the index finger of your right hand in front of you and move your hand from left to right as if you are directing somebody not to do something. When you say لا ت ف ع ل وا, the same action can be repeated with the four fingers of the right hand instead of just one. Prohibitive ا م ر ن ه ي Imperative ا فع ل Do! لا ت فع ل do!
