Welcome & Introduction

Bismillah Arrahman Arrahim

Few months back I was talking with my friend Humbal Tariq on whatsapp and was mentioning how most of us have been taught Quran in Arabic and we do not even know what it means when we are reading it. I was mentioning to him how I don't think this is the right way to do it for our kids. He told me that he is teaching his daughter by teaching her an Arabic word and its meaning every day. So by the time she will be done she will even understand what she is reading. So I requested him to teach me as well.

This conversation made him start a Whatsapp group with lots of people in it. We have been learning a little at a time. This blog will be the most useful and helpful to people who know Urdu as most of the Quranic words have something similar in Urdu and that's what he references in his lessons.

I am starting this blog to share his lessons.

Below is how Humbal started teaching us for the first time:

"Most effective way to learn the Quranic Arabic is to directly start the Quran. Instead of learning the complex grammatical rules and word meanings. If you can learn the meaning of only 150 words, you will be able to understand half of the Qur'an. I will try my best to link each word with Urdu InshaAllah.This will create a pnemonic in your mind and will become easier to remember the meaning."
