Arabic Lesson 5

Do you remember how you were able to read Lâ ilâha illAllâh already after lesson 1? Now this lesson begins with the second part of that sentence, Muhammadun rasûlu-llâh, Muhammad is Allah's messenger.

The Ta marbuta nearly looks like the Ha in lesson 1 except for the two dots. It only occurs at the end of a word.Ta marbuta often indicates that the word is feminine.
Remember:If the word that ends with mit Ta marbuta (and a vowel) is followed by another word, it is pronounced as t: rahmatunIf the sentence is finished with this word, it is pronounced as h, and the vowel is dropped: rahmah.
After you have read the passage "Find the Surah", you may again open the Qur'an and try to find the Surahs that have these headlines.Once you are at it, why do you not try to find out what else you can read in the text?

Arabic Lesson 4

Al-hamdu lillâh,praise be to Allah, there is progress

Just as the Alif makes the a long (see Lesson 1) and the Ya makes the i long (see lesson 3), the Waw makes the u long.
The Hamza is a glottal stop, that means, you make a little break when speaking: not mûmin but mu'min.
Have a careful look at the words yawm, layl etc. that contain diphthongs.
In this lesson, not only new Names of God are introduced but also names of some prophets and messengers: Noah (Nûh), Abraham (Ibrahim), Hûd, Jonah (Yûnus) und Muhammad. Are you already able to recognize them without transliteration?
