195 - "O my Lord, forgive me and turn towards me (to accept my repentance). Verily You are The Oft-Returning. The Oft-Forgiving."

رَبِّ اغْفِـرْ لي، وَتُبْ عَلَـيَّ، إِنَّكَ أَنْـتَ التَّـوّابُ الغَـفور

Rabbi ghfir lî wa tub calayya. Innaka anta t-tawwâbu-l-ghafûr.

• QURAN RECITATION

We read Surah Fatihah aloud altogether, then sisters individually read aloud a few letters/words, ayahs (according to her ability and with the help and encouragement of her fellow sisters).  We read Surah Ali-Imran from Ayat 71  till Ayat 91.  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.

• DISCUSSION

During our Quran recitation, when Sister Winnie read her few lines, the sisters all corrected her saying “ you said a yaa, not a taa” .  But she insisted she didn’t make a mistake. Sister Sara looked at the Quran Sister Winnie had and discovered that in fact Sister Winnie had inadvertently picked up a Quran that was Warsh.  Many of the sisters were new to this and Sister Sara decided that she would present a few talks on the topic of the 10 Qira’at in sha Allah at upcoming Halaqas.
