During the Covid-19 “stay at home” order, we have decided to hold our Halaqa online using Google Meet every Thursday morning in sha 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
We read Surah Fatihah aloud altogether, then Sister Alia read Surah Maryam verses 1-11 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.
Note: We decided to designate one sister each week to read Surah Fatihah aloud while the remained of the sisters read with their microphones muted.
Quran: Tafsir
Surah Maryam verses 1-11
We have chosen to use Tafsir Ibn Kathir Volume 6

Verses 1-6
Verses 7
Verses 8-9

I seek Your forgiveness and turn to You in repentance."
سُبْحـانَكَ اللّهُـمَّ وَبِحَمدِك، أَشْهَـدُ أَنْ لا إِلهَ إِلاّ أَنْتَ أَسْتَغْفِرُكَ وَأَتوبُ إِلَـيْك
Subhânaka l-lâhumma wa bi-hamdika. Ash-hadu an lâ ilâha illâ anta, astaghfiruka wa atûbu ilayka..
If any of this information was good and true, know that it comes from Allah subhanahu wa ta’ala.
If there are mistakes we ask for Allah’s Forgiveness and Mercy.
