Introduction

All praise is for Allaah. We praise Him, seek His help and forgiveness. We

seek refuge in Allaah from the evils of ourselves and the evils of our actions. I

bear witness that none has the right to be worshipped except Allaah & I bear

witness that Muhammad is His servant and Messenger.

Undoubtedly the more one knows about the Qur'aan, the closer he will feel itin his heart & mind. The heart attains real life when it is joined with theQur'aan. It is the Book which contains the teachings that the believer needs,to know his Lord and to worship Him. It is the light that guides the

person. And it is the source of the Muslims dignity, honor and happiness inboth this life and the Hereafter.

Allah has said,

s9 ur&$Z# u%Nui/$t6f9$#r&Mye%/F{$#r&tj>./4sAy9$#3t/!F{$#$sdIf there were a Quran with which mountains were moved, or the earth

were cloven asunder, or the dead were made to speak, (this would be

the one). But truly the Command is with Allah in all things.(Al-Ra3d:31)

The Prophet Muhammad (sallallaahu 3Alayhi wassallam) said, Thesuperiority of the speech of Allah over all other speech is like the superiorityof Allah over His creation.

(At-Tirmidhi)

When a person realizes the superiority of the Qur'aan he will be moved tofulfill his obligations towards it. First and foremost a Muslim must have astrong love for the Qur'aan. But this love is not simply at a theoreticallevel. It must be exhibited by ones actions towards the Qur'aan. Thiswould include reading, studying, memorizing, defending and acting inaccordance with the Qur'aan.

Knowledge of the Arabic language is indispensable for the purpose ofunderstanding and comprehending the Qur'aan. The Qur'aan embodies

linguistic and literary beauty which exceeds anything of human origin.Although it has been translated into many languages, these translations

cannot replace the original language as a language of worship, whichcontinues to be Arabic for all Muslims, native speakers or otherwise. It mustbe clearly understood that reading the translation is, at best, a poorsubstitute for learning the Qur'aanic language. One cannot understand the

exact meaning and the spirit of the Qur'aan without understanding its text.

It is implicit that anyone professing Islam cannot ignore the role Arabic playsin his faith. It is important for the learner to know that the Arabic language iseasy to learn as it is a highly sophisticated language based on a very refinedand systematic set of rules and patterns. This fact is confirmed by Allah inthe following verse:

s)s9 u$tot#u)9$#.e%#9ys9.And we have indeed made the Quran easy to understand and remember,then is there any that will remember (and receive admonition).

(Al-Qamar:17)

Nevertheless, it does require consistent effort, sincerity and commitment, toattain this most important treasure of knowledge.

BEFORE WE STARTBEFORE WE STARTBEFORE WE STARTBEFORE WE START

These lessons are for students who can read and write Arabic.

The lessons are prepared in a way to give the basic grammar rulesat the beginning & take students gradually to the advance level.

We will use the real script of the Quraan while explaining thelessons (as it is in Mus-haf of Madeenah). Therefore it is importantto know the differences between the script of Quraan & thestandard Arabic, so that you can follow the lessons easily & benefitfrom the information.

For the first few lessons we will be using both scripts till you getused to it.

In order to fully benefit, we recommend you to start from the first lessonof this course and study each lesson carefully, before you move to thenext lesson.

The lessons are explained with examples from the Quraan. Theverses/part of verses are written on a separate page. You should know& learn the meaning of each word as the lessons are going to built upone on the other.

This will be a complete course inshaAllaah, consisting ofstructured lessons explaining the grammatical rules of Arabic.

We will be putting detailed notes of every important rule foradvanced students on the site .
