Halaqa # 160

 Dhu’l-Hijjah 2, 1441 AH


The Blessed Ten


Year 7


Attendance: 

6 Sisters

2 Junior Sisters                                                    

4 Junior Guests


Location: Online via Google Meet



Agenda: (please note, we have included many links where you can read in detail more on each subject)

 

During the Covid-19 “stay at home” order, we have decided to hold our Halaqa online using Google Meet every Thursday morning in shaa Allah.

 

Opening Dua

O Allah, bless this Halaqa, allow us to gain, act upon and share beneficial knowledge. 

Guide us, forgive our sins and grant us Jannah with our families and loved ones. 

O my Lord increase me in knowledge*رَّبِّ زِدْنِى عِلْمًا   Ameen

*Part of ayah 114 Surah Taha(20)


Quran: Reciting

Sister Mai read Surah Fatihah as the other sisters read silently with her, then Sister Alia read Surah Maryam verses 12-25 followed by Sister Rim, reading the English Approximation.  In sha Allah, this will be an ongoing part of our Halaqa and one day in sha Allah, we will have Khatam Quran and begin again.   




Quran: Tafsir

Surah Maryam verses 12-25


We have chosen to use Tafsir Ibn Kathir   Volume 6 

Sister Alia read parts 1 and 3


  1. The Birth of the Boy and His Characteristics

Verses 12-15

  1. The Story of Maryam and Al-Masih (`Isa)

Verses 16-21

  1. The Conception and the Birth

Verses 22-23

  1. What was said to Her after the Birth Some reciters read the Ayah as, (مَنْ تَحْتِهَا )  

Verses 24-26



Discussion:  


We decided to do more research on tafsir #3. 


In last week's tafsir, there was a mention of the different pronunciation of the name Zakariya, We did some research and discovered that the name can be spelled in two different ways in Arabic and thus the different pronunciation.  We continued our discussion about the different readings of the Quran, “Qiraat” and in shaa Allah, we will have a lesson on this in the future. 


Quran: Tajweed

We are following a book from our library that is not copyrighted.

Tajweed for Beginners  Prepared by Qari Ismail Essack

Sister Shimaa provided a quick review and then continued her lesson about  Makhaarij  

Pdf Page 20  #13  (in shaa Allah, we will do #12 next week)
