Learning Arabic from Quran.



(إِنَّا أَنْزَلْنَاهُ قُرْآنًا عَرَبِيًّا لَعَلَّكُمْ تَعْقِلُونَ)
يوسف سورة12 آية 2

Today is the first day of Ramadan, and today I will try to give some guidance to help you learn Arabic from the Quran. This learning method is suitable for the intermediate and advanced levels.

Now back to our main subject.
Here is the link, and there are a few steps you need to follow to get the best results.
1)Click on this link (Please note that this link is FREE.)
http://quran.muslim-web.com/
Now you will see الفهرس all السور there are 114. The
first one is 1الفاتحة and the last one is 114 الناس

2)Click on any one of Sura ..for example ALFATIHA الفاتحة

WITH THE LEFT SIDE OF THE MOUSE
NOW YOU WILL HAVE SEVEN 7 CHOICES :

*Open the book(Quran),.


*Recites by the sound of ALHOZAIFY (he is one of the best reciters,but his reading is fast I like محمد صديق المنشاوي .Once you click on it, you will see three choices. Real player needed to listen.

* This is the third choice, market by ن and it is the most important one, you will see the question mark ? you will get 10 choices
first is the explanations of Quran in Arabic عـــرض تفســــــير الآية
إبن كثـــــــير
الجـلالــــــين
الطــــــــبري
القــــــرطبي
then listen to the specific آية
then exercise
then writing
after that is the translation in other languages:
English
Français
Deutsch
Turkish
Indoneisan
Malayu


The last choice is to add the page to your favourite.I recommend you to listen to the short Sura which starts with number 91 الشمس
lastly here is the link for the Quran translated word by word.
You can print each Sura and listen to the Quran from the above link this way you have the vocabulary and how to pronunce it in Arabic
This is the link to other reader/reciter.
Good luck .
and Ramadan Karim رمضان كريم

Arabic Grammar

Do you want to know about Arabic Grammar? Then take a look at this book/links .
This book is for advanced level students but beginners are advised just to look at it otherwise you will be discouraged from learning the language.
When the author said "Quraniq Arabic" this is known as CLASSICAL Arabic. Most Arabs know classical Arabic. In my opinion, once you know classical Arabic you will be able to understand any other Arabic Dialect.

Later I will "انشاء الله"put the links to learning Arabic from the Quran.
