This course serves as a very advanced method in introducing the classical/Fushah Arabic Language. This will not be similar to any ARB-101 classes you may have taken in colleges or universities; rather, this will be a fast-paced class that will have you joining and forming sentences right from the first class period. You will have a good understanding of what the Arabic language is about and the meaning to many words from the Qur'an by the end of the Semester.

This class will include but is not restricted to learning the following within the Arabic Language: Subject & Predicate, Past, Present, and Future Tense Verbs, Object, Prepositions, Pronouns, Adjectives, Imperative & Prohibitive, Singular, Dual, and Plural, etc.

Learn how to finally take your first step into your dream of learning and understanding the language of the Holy Qur'an. We have always wished to learn what the Qur'an is saying but have always pushed it aside thinking it would be very complex to learn and understand it. This course will change your mindset and have you continuing your journey in understanding this Din and progressing through the different levels of Fushah Arabic and the Qur'an.

The instructor will clearly and vividly introduce each topic towards the beginning of class until it is understood and further enhance your understanding with actual exercises and classwork to complement the lesson learnt. Many words of Arabic will be learnt and memorized and you will understand how to put them together to form sentences. You will also learn how unique each word of the Arabic language is as each root word has 14 different methods of utilizing it, producing different meanings.

Salah is an integral part of our deen and is at the core of our experience as Muslims. Salah is a direct channel and access line to Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. It is through Salah that we as believers can fulfill our needs, solve our problems, build a

relationship with our creator, and enjoy the sweetness of direct communion with Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.

The most efficient way of drastically improving our Salah and to transform it from a mundane ritual to a true experience and dialogue with our Creator is to develop a deep comprehension of what we are reciting.

This class will cover in detail, word by word, Surat al-Fatihah and the last ten Surahs of the Qur'an along with its basic recital to ensure our recitation of the most basic Surahs is correct. The meanings of Arabic words change drastically due to meager and slight errors in our recitation. This course also aims to delve beyond the translation of the words into the intricacies of the language and the deeper meanings that the scholars of tafseer have extrapolated.

The instructor will share powerpoint presentations and conduct group recitals to ensure the material is being understood in a very informative manner. It is desired that students will not only grasp the linguistic meanings but also begin to appreciate the literary beauty of the words of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.
