Message for Lesson No. 9

Start Understanding Qur’an – The Easy Way (Ramadan Short Course).

Dear Brothers/Sisters!

Jazakumullahu khairan for the feedback from many of you. I have already implemented
some suggestions in this lesson (providing English translations at more places; giving
more emphasis on almost similar words which are absolutely different in meanings such
as ‘min’ and ‘man’). Teachers (as well as students) may find additional notes for some of
the slides. To look at them, you have to change the extension from .pps to .ppt and then
select View from the menu bar and select “Notes page”. You can also view these notes
in “Normal View” by just dragging the lower line of the slide box a little above, if they are
not visible. As teachers, you can add to these notes for your own records (and send me
too!).

I will try to implement other suggestions too, inshaAllah as much as I can. Note that
your one suggestion may go a long way in helping others. So, don’t hesitate and please
spare the time to type a few words the moment you feel something. Please send your
comments/ feedback at webmaster@understandquran.com.

IN THIS LESSON, YOU WILL LEARN THE FOLLOWING:

FROM QUR’AN: Surah Al-Falaq

IN GRAMMAR: Learn the six past tense forms using TPI. Note that almost 5,000 words
of the Qur’an are in these forms.

LEARNING / MEMORY TIP: Learn an extremely important secret of keeping the

memory alive.

May Allah give us Tawfeeq to fulfill all the rights of the Qur’an.

Depending upon the person (3rd, 2nd, or 1st), gender (masculine or feminine), and number (singular or plural), ending words
of the corresponding forms of the past tense change. By this change we know whether this verb (past tense) is singular or
plural, 3rd, 2nd or 1st person, and feminine or masculine. To remember this feature, here is an example. If you are standing
on a road, you can see the backside of a departed car, truck or jeep. A look at the backside is enough for you to tell which
type of car has gone. So, remember the endings for past tense forms: (
