    Learning Quranic Arabic

    So I have decided to shut my critics up and learn Arabic. It's no easy task, but I believe every Muslim must learn it if they pray, and read the Qu'ran. I mean, what is the point in reciting verses of the Qu'ran if you don't no what you are saying?

    There's only 3 people in the world who I believe knows more about Islam than I do: my Hafiz who taught me the Qu'ran, Anwar Al-Alwaki (dead), and my former Young Muslims club friend Nouman Ali Khan (it's amazing that back in 2003 we where just equal in Islamic studies and now he is recognized as one of the most influential Muslims in the world)

    Nouman Ali Khan has a Qu'ranic Arabic course "Arabic with Husna) on his website Bayyinah.tv. you pay $11 a month (money goes to expanding his venture) and what you get is a copious amount of Arabic learning material.

    Does anybody wanna learn Qu'ranic Arabic with me? so we both can push ourselves when we feel lazy and want to stop. I will even give you my login information so you don't have to pay anything (Note: this offer is only for the people I trust on here, Randolph, Adam, Waleed, DJZ, -Gulalai, Laila, kakargirl)

    I recommend everyone to go to Bayyinah.tv and sign up, Brother Nouman is an excellent Ustadh. So who wants to learn Qu'ranic Arabic with me?

    yeah, i am not feeling the passion for it so i don't see why i should add one more thing on my list of things to procrastinate on. furthermore, i am supposed to be fluent in french in less than two years to the point where i am able to write formal documents and stuff and i don't even know how to say hello yet..

    who wants to teach me french??

    as for not knowing what one reads in quran if they don't speak the arabic language.. that is where tafseer comes in. i am sure all copies of the quran have not been translated by profanity, profanity, profanities. maybe once i master hebrew and latin.

    it's bonjure, isn't it?! i knew that i knew something about french and had logical reasons for leaving it to the last minute..
    sigh, i am in so much trouble..

        I heard arabic from the levant such as lebanese, syrian, palestine etc is the closest to Quranic Arabic. So if you want to learn maybe learn those dialects?

          Nouman Ali Khan teaches Arabic straight from using examples from the Qu'ran. It's short video lessons with PDF workbooks.

          He also learned Arabic in his 20's.

            Hmmm no this is untrue because Shami people don't pronounce Qaaf when they speak so any word with a 'Q" they say with a Hamza instead.

            Also their rhetoric is very different for example they say words like "Bidi" instead of "ureed" . Bidi is a verbal noun but Ureed is the actual first person verb.

            But it is closer than Egyptiian Arabic. Yemeni is actually closest to Qur'anic Arabiic. but Yemeni has some phonetics issues too for example Qaaf becoes Gaaf, but they don't use Verbal Nouns in Yemeni, Egyptian and Shami (Syrian, Lebanese and Palestinian) do.

                So I guess I will be learning on my own. Every Muslim must learn Arabic!! its very important to understand the original language of the Qu'ran. I've read several different translations of the Qu'ran, but it is so much sweeter when you read the Qu'ran in it's original form and fully know what you are reciting.

                    It's $11 a month, with the proceeds going to expand the Bayinnah institute.

                    But, if you don't wanna pay, and I have discussion with you for more than three years, so I could trust you with my login info, so PM me.

                    first, go to Bayinnah.tv and check out the free introduction, than let me know.

                      what is the point of learning arabic if not only are you going to indulge in having women sit on your lap but talk about it in public platforms as if it was nothing but just another current events.. and you are someone who apparently has spent a good amount of time learning at a madrasa too... sounds like a great waste of time to me.

                          Well, someone has to be Santa Clause..


                          Nah, you are not going to hell. but I am if I don't master Arabic. you're a good person. I am not so.



                          I'm either going to go to the lowest level of Hell. or Jannat Al-Firdous, the 6th level of heaven. no in-between

                              ughh, I hate learning masculine and feminine nouns. this is why I love English, ism treated equally.

                              its not that bad, you add either -atin, or -atun depending of couse by the place the noun belongs and if its singular or plural.
