Easy to Learn! Allah says, Verily We have made Al-Qur'an EASY to understand and remember (Al-Qamar 54:17,22,32,40) و ل ق د ي س ر ن ا ال ق ر آن ل لذ ك ر ن د د ك ر So the suggestion that Al-Qur'an is difficult is from shaitan! Even in your thoughts, NEVER agree with it and NEVER say it. Do we want to contradict what Allah says in the Qur an? (May Allah forgive us!)
And the parts of Salah such as: i.e., 7 commonly recited Surahs ال نت ح ة ان األ ذ ال ع ص ر د ع نء ب ع د ال و ض وء الن ص ر ر ك وع س ج ود ال ك ف ر ون الت ح ي نت هلل اإل خ ل ص ق ال ل ا م هلل ص ل ع ى ل م ح م د ر ب ن ن ات ن ن ف ى الن نس
Along with extremely simple Grammar using TPI.. plus you learn 232 words that occur 39,000 * times or 50%! or half the words in every line! i.e., every 2 nd word of the Qur an is from Salah! *39,000 times, to be more correct; still that makes 50% of the Qur anic words. ع ل م Teach!

This is a unique course! Alhamdulillah هذا بيت lessons: We don t start with dry كبي?هذا بيت كبي When are you going to repeat Perhaps if you have an Arab neighbor and his toddler comes to you crying; you take him in your lap and to console him, هذا بيت كبي say: you That may never happen!
The most optimum way! Our lessons start with Al-Fatihah! Talk to Allah (17 to 30) times a day. Practice Arabic language with Allah! What an amazing start! And right on the target! We spend almost an hour for 5 prayers talking to Allah in Arabic! Why not start from there! It is the most common sense approach It is valid for every Muslim man, woman, old, and young, and even for a child
1. To convince you that the Qur an is easy to understand 2. To help you pray Salah effectively with Khusoo, i.e, humility (by teaching you 7 Surahs and Azkar of Salah) 3. Encourage you to recite Qur an again and again with understanding 4. To help you in interacting with the Qur an (to bring it into our lives) 5. To teach 100 sentences of (Qur an centric) Spoken Arabic 6. To generate team spirit to do good things
3 serious crimes committed in our Salah (not all, but most of us) We recite very fast! Our mind is wondering roaming service! We recite without feelings!
Before we start reciting the Qur an, we say: ع وذ م الر ج ي ال شي ىط م ب نهلل أ Let us study that first.
م الر ج ي ىط الش ي م ب نهلل ا ع و ذ the outcast Shaitan, From In Allah I seek refuge
م الر ج ي ىط الش ي م ب نهلل ا ع و ذ the outcast Shaitan, From In Allah I seek refuge ع و ذ ا ع وذ I seek refuge I seek protection

م الر ج ي ىط الش ي م ب نهلل ا ع و ذ the outcast Shaitan, From In Allah I seek refuge اهلل Allah is His blessed Name, the rest of the names are His attributes
م الر ج ي ىط الش ي م ب نهلل ا ع و ذ the outcast Shaitan, From In Allah I seek refuge When it is cold, we try to protect ourselves with warm clothes so that cold air does not attack us from any side. Shaitaan is attacking us from every direction, at all times, a constant and persistent enemy, form life to death. means O Allah! I want Your اعوذ باهلل protection.
م الر ج ي ىط الش ي م ب نهلل ا ع و ذ the outcast Shaitan, From In Allah I seek refuge م from Other meanings are also there.

م الر ج ي ىط الش ي م ب نهلل ا ع و ذ the outcast Shaitan, From In Allah I seek refuge Pointers from book ر ج م Allah is the Creator and we are His Creation. He is very close to us. He even knows what we think. Recite the above with firm belief that Allah is responding to our request. Feel the presence of Shaitan and of the two angels who are always with us.
م الر ج ي ىط الش ي م ب نهلل ا ع و ذ the outcast Shaitan, From In Allah I seek refuge Pointers from book ر ج م Feel the insecurity caused by the attacks of Shaitan. He constantly whispers and instigates us to disobey Allah. We cannot hit Shaitan, nor kill him, nor convince him to become good. He will always try to take us away from Allah. The only solution is to recite the above.
م الر ج ي ىط الش ي م ب نهلل ا ع و ذ the outcast Shaitan, From In Allah I seek refuge Pointers from book ر ج م Why is Rajeem mentioned? So that we always keep his status alive in our mind. This Rajeem wants us to follow him and become like him.
م الر ج ي ىط الش ي م ب نهلل ا ع و ذ the outcast Shaitan, From In Allah I seek refuge ر ج م Do you think Shaitaan is close to Allah? Never. He is outcast; rejected; thrown away from Allah s mercy. Therefore the meaning is outcast! That is a very useful trick to remember the meanings; i.e., remember the context.
Message from: م الر ج ي ىط الش ي م ب نهلل ا ع و ذ the outcast Shaitan, From In Allah I seek refuge Who is Shaitan?: Our biggest, most dangerous enemy. Has huge experience of making people slip from the time of Adam (peace be upon him). He made tricked him, in Jannah. None of us can be smarter than Adam (peace be upon him) in resisting Shaitan!
Message from: م الر ج ي ىط الش ي م ب نهلل ا ع و ذ the outcast Shaitan, From In Allah I seek refuge Shaitan has will attack us from the right, the left, the front, and the back. All of us have a Shaitan with us who is an evil jinn; We cannot hit Shaitan, nor kill him, nor convince him to become good. (There is no dawah program for Shaitaan) So, the first thing is: Be aware of the danger, and seriously seek protection! You are unsafe.
Plan م الر ج ي ىط الش ي م ب نهلل ا ع و ذ the outcast Shaitan, From In Allah I seek refuge Allah in His infinite Mercy, gave us a powerful shield. أعوذ باهلل protection. and we get أعوذ باهلل Say covers us from all the sides. Wraps us in protection. So, don t be afraid of Shaitan! Allah is there to protect you. And You have two angels who are always with you.
Plan م الر ج ي ىط الش ي م ب نهلل ا ع و ذ the outcast Shaitan, From In Allah I seek refuge Recite it before reading the Qur'an. Why? He may divert our attention while reciting or listening to it, especially in Salah. If we don't get lessons from the Qur'an, then Shaitan has succeeded!
Plan م الر ج ي ىط الش ي م ب نهلل ا ع و ذ the outcast Shaitan, From In Allah I seek refuge Most Important: Every time you listen to the Qur'an in Salah, or recite it yourself, focus on the Message? Habit # 1. Realize that you are in a warzone with Satan whispering to you constantly. Get protection by saying A oodhu billah whenever he attacks you.
Habit م الر ج ي ىط الش ي م ب نهلل ا ع و ذ the outcast Shaitan, From In Allah I seek refuge Shaitan runs away from the Qur'an itself, so Allah asked us to seek His protection before reciting Qur an so how about when we are in the market, on the internet, on TV etc! Make it a habit to repeat it every time you sense the danger.
Whenever you recite, try to We will show you how to do that
For example, when you recite م الر ج ي ىط الش ي م ب نهلل ا ع و ذ the outcast Shaitan, From In Allah I seek refuge Visualize: the presence of Shaitaan. Feel: that you are extremely unsafe and desperate to get the protection; Ask: Ask Allah with sincere begging.

Grammar: أ ت م ن ح ه و ه م أ ت ن أ Dialogues Learning tip 53
We teach grammar but with less focus on terminologies غنئب جمع مذكر م موز بنب إفعنل ي ؤم ن ون فعل مضنرع مرفوع بثبوت النون أل ه م األفعنل الخمسة والواو ضمير متصل في محل رفع فنعل You can learn the terminologies later
We learn grammar using TPI. TPI: Total Physical Interaction It is easy, interesting, and interactive!
USE TPI!!! 1. Hear it 2. See it 3. Think it 4. Say it Can you repeat it with me; with actions! 5. Show it 6. Love it 7. Do it together
Through TPI Extremely useful for explaining Qur anic words. For example, one sign for 5 things: )ت ر ج ع ون: مذكر حاضر جمع مضارع مجهول(
TPI We have the list of 125 words (out of 233) which occur almost 39,000 times. But I want you to learn them right here. Please practice the way as I say Even if you know Arabic, learn it to teach it to others.
Through TPI: 18,500!! ن ح. أ ت م أ ن ه ي ه م ه و أ ت.1 ن ن. ك م ي ك ن م ه.2 )ل م ع ب ف ي ع ى ل إ ىل ى هىذ ا هى ؤآلء ذل ك أ و ل ئ ك ه ى ذ ه عن د( م ع.3 ف ع ل ج ع ل ف ت ح ر ص ر خ ل ق ع ب د ذ ك.4 ض ر ب س م ع ع ل م ع م ل

Arabic is very interesting! So many words just one letter! And So, thus, hence Is / Did? و ف أ, ه ل
ه و He ه م they أ ت You أ ت م (all) You أ ن I ح We 66
Two words with no separation. وه و = و + ه و وه م = و + ه م
And و = و ه و And he و ه م And they And you And you (all) And I And we و أن ت و أن ت م وأنا ون حن
So we have fa another letter ف + ه و ف ه و = he so ف + ه م he so فه م =
ف = so Thus, So he So they So you So you (all) So I So we فه و فه م فأن ت فأن ت م فأن ا فن حن
Want to ask a Question? أه و = أ + ه و أه م = أ + ه م
Just add to the front ه ل ه و = ه ل + ه و هل ه م = هل + ه م
أ =? Are Is, Did, Am, Used for questioning, when an yes or no answer is required أه و أه م أأن ت Yes No ع م = ل = أأن ت م أأن ا أن حن

Isn t it easy! In just few minutes, you learnt 6 words which occur 1295 times in the Qur an. You have used them in Spoken Arabic too! Isn t that easy and interesting? Every grammar lesson will show you how close you got to the Qur an Isn t it better than learning all those terminologies: ضمائر منفصلة غائب حاضر متكلم
Learn dual & feminine gender later on. Only 6 instead of 14??? ه و ه م ن ه م أ ت أ ت م ن أ ت م أ ن ن ح ه ي ه م ن ه أ ت أ ت م ن أ ت We will learn dual and feminine gender forms later, inshaallah
Dual & Feminine forms later 6 forms only instead of 14 ذ ي ي ن أ ي ن ال ام ن وا females means both males and Dual forms come very rarely When they come, we can learn them easily.
