Understand Qur’an

ِ للهِ	الَّذِي
أَحْيَانَا
All praise and thanksgiving			(be) to Allah			Who		gave us life
بَعْدَ مَا	أَمَاتَنَا			وَإِلَيْهِ			النُّشُورُ
after	He had given us death			and unto Him			(is) the resurrection.

GRAMMAR: Practice the following 21 forms of سَمِعَ¹⁰⁰ (1d); عَلِمَ⁵¹⁸ (1d); and عَمِلَ³¹⁸ (1d).

( سَمِعَ¹⁰⁰ : he heard; عَلِمَ : he knew; عَمِلَ : he acted, he did, he worked)

		نَهْي	أمْر	فِعْل مُضَارِع	فِعْل مَاضِي
تَسْمَعُ	سَمِعَتْ			يَسْمَعُ يَسْمَعُونَ	سَمِعَ سَمِعُوا
		لاَ تَسْمَعْ لاََ تَسْمَعُوا	اِسْمَعْ اِسْمَعُوا	تَسْمَعُ تَسْمَعُونَ	سَمِعْتَ سَمِعْتُمْ
				أَسْمَعُ نَسْمَعُ	سَمِعْتُ سَمِعْنَا

		نَهْي	أمْر	فِعْل مُضَارِع	فِعْل مَاضِي
تَعْلَمُ	عَلِمَتْ			يَعْلَمُ يَعْلَمُونَ	عَلِمَ عَلِمُوا
		لاَ تَعْلَمْ لاََ تَعْلَمُوا	اِعْلَمْ اِعْلَمُوا	تَعْلَمُ تَعْلَمُونَ	عَلِمْتَ عَلِمْتُمْ
				أَعْلَمُ نَعْلَمُ	عَلِمْتُ عَلِمْنَا

Note that this verb type is 1d, بَاب سَمِعَ . Here again, the small difference is that instead of سَمَعَ، سَمَعُوا... in the past tense, we have سَمِعَ، سَمِعُوا... (i.e,, in the past tense forms we have ‘i’ sound on the 2nd root letter instead of ‘a’ sound). Note similar small changes in the imperative forms too. Repeat the 21 forms of the verb عَلِم⁵¹⁸ and عَمِلَ³¹⁸ as shown above.

Lesson – 21 Supplications (from Qur’an)

***** Qur’anic supplications *****
رَبِّ				زِدْنِي		ع * My Lord! Increase me in knowledge. --------------------- * Our Lord! Give us in this world that which is good and in the hereafter that which is good, and protect us from the punishement of the Fire. ِلْمًا (20:114)
My Lord!				Increase me		(in) knowledge.
رَبَّنَآ	آتِنَا		فِي الدُّنْيَا		حَسَنَةً		وَّفِي الآخِرَةِ
Our Lord!	Give us		in (this) world		(that which is) good		and in the Hereafter
حَسَنَةً		وَّقِنَا				عَذَابَ		النَّارِ(2:201)
(that which is) good		and protect us (from)				the punishment		(of) the Fire.

GRAMMAR:

We are learning special cases of trilateral verbs. In this lesson, we will learn those verbs whose second letter of the 3 root letters is a weak letter (one of the 3 letters: و، ي، ا ). A weak letter gets ‘tired’ quickly so it does not survive in all forms of the verb (past, imperfect, imperative, etc). It either disappears or sends another weak letter in its place! The good thing is that the three weak letters support each other to overcome their ‘weakness’! Let us take قَالَ ¹⁷¹⁹ (he said) as an example. In the past tenseقَالَ (Root letters: ق و ل ) has alif in the middle which gets replaced by waaw in يَقُولُ and gets replaced by yaa in قِيلَ (it is said; the passive voice; not shown here). In some cases, it just disappears as in قُلْ (say). The different forms of قَالَ follow the pattern of بَابَ نَصَرَ . Practice كَانَ ¹³⁶¹ also. كَانَ : he was; يَكُونُ : he is or will be ; كُنْ : be!

		نَهْي	أمْر	فِعْل مُضَارِع	فِعْل مَاضِي
هِيَ تَقُولُ	هِيَ قَالَتْ			يَقُولُ يَقُولُونَ	قَالَ قَالُوا

				أَقُولُ نَقُولُ	قُلْتُ قُلْنَا
