Easy to Learn!

➢ Allah says, “Verily We have made Al-Qur'an EASY

to understand and remember” (Al-Qamar 54:17,22,32,40)

دكر ولقد يسرنا القرآن للذ د ن كر

➢ 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!)

This is a unique course! Alhamdulillah

➢ We don’t start with dry lessons: بيتهذا

كبي

➢ When are you going to repeat كبي بيتهذا ?

➢ Perhaps if you have an Arab neighbor

and his toddler comes to you crying; you

take him in your lap and to console him,

you say: كبي بيتهذا

➢ That may never happen!

➢ 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 …

The most optimum way!

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!

بنهلل أعوذ الش م م الرجييطى

Let us study that first.

Before we start reciting the Qur ’an, we say:

بنهلل اعوذ ي م الش م الرجي طىI seek refugeIn AllahFromShaitan,the outcast

ع و ذ

ذ عو ا I seek refugeI seek protection

بنهلل اعوذ ي م الش م الرجي طىI seek refugeIn AllahFromShaitan,the outcast

‘safety first’;‘buckle up’;

Get protection

بنهلل اعوذ ي م الش م الرجي طىI seek refugeIn AllahFromShaitan,the outcast

هللبن بنهلل اعوذ ي م الش م الرجي طى

I seek refugeIn AllahFromShaitan,the outcast

هللاـ ب Allah in

بنهلل اعوذ ي م الش م الرجي طىI seek refugeIn AllahFromShaitan,the outcast

هللاAllah is His blessed Name, the rest of the names

are His attributes

بنهلل اعوذ ي م الش م الرجي طىI seek refugeIn AllahFromShaitan,the outcast

• 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.

• باهللاعوذ means O Allah! I want Your protection.

➢ Allah is the Creator and we are His Creation. He is veryclose to us. He even knows what we think.

➢ Recite the above with firm belief that Allah isresponding to our request.

➢ Feel the presence of Shaitan and of the two angels whoare always with us.

Pointers from book

➢ Feel the insecurity caused by the attacks ofShaitan. He constantly whispers and instigates usto disobey Allah.

➢ We cannot hit Shaitan, nor kill him, nor convincehim to become good. He will always try to take usaway from Allah. The only solution is to recite theabove.

Pointers from book

➢ Why is Rajeem mentioned? So that we alwayskeep his status alive in our mind. This Rajeemwants us to follow him and become like him.

ر ج م

That is a very useful trick to remember the meanings; i.e., remember the context.

بنهلل اعوذ ي م الش م الرجي طىI seek refugeIn AllahFromShaitan,the outcast

➢ Do you think Shaitaan is close to Allah? Never.

➢ He is outcast; rejected; thrown away from Allah’smercy. Therefore the meaning is… outcast!

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!

بنهلل اعوذ ي م الش م الرجي طىI seek refugeIn AllahFromShaitan,the outcast

Message from:

Message from:

• 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.

بنهلل اعوذ ي م الش م الرجي طىI seek refugeIn AllahFromShaitan,the outcast

• Allah in His infinite Mercy, gave us a powerful shield.

• Say أعوذ باهلل and we get protection. أعوذ باهللcovers 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

بنهلل اعوذ ي م الش م الرجي طىI seek refugeIn AllahFromShaitan,the outcast

Plan

بنهلل اعوذ ي م الش م الرجي طىI seek refugeIn AllahFromShaitan,the outcast

• 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

بنهلل اعوذ ي م الش م الرجي طىI seek refugeIn AllahFromShaitan,the outcast

• 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

بنهلل اعوذ ي م الش م الرجي طىI seek refugeIn AllahFromShaitan,the outcast

• 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.

We will show you how to do that…

Whenever you recite, try to…

For example, when you recite

➢ Visualize: the presence of Shaitaan.

➢ Feel: that you are extremely unsafe and desperate to get the protection;

➢ Ask: Ask Allah with sincere begging.

محل رفع فنعل نيؤمنو

We teach grammar but with less focus on terminologies

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

5. Show it

6. Love it

7. Do it together

Can you repeat it with me; with actions!

Through TPI

➢ Extremely useful for explaining Qur’anicwords . For example, one sign for 5things:

( مذكر، حاضر، جمع، مضارع، مجهول: ترجعون)

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!!

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

We will learn dual and feminine gender forms later, inshaAllah

هو، همن، هم، ➢ هي، همن، ه➢ أ تمن، أتم، ت، أ أ ت، أتمن، أت➢ أن، نح

Learn dual & feminine gender later on.

Only 6 instead of 14 ???

Dual & Feminine forms later…

6 forms only instead of 14

ن الذي منوااين أي means both males and

females

Dual forms come very rarely

When they come, we can learn them easily.

Recite slowly; with visualization and

feelings!
