• Level 0: The objective of this level is to enable you to read the Arabic script.
• Level 1: The objective of this level is to enable you to understand the religious Arabic used in the
routine life.
• Level 2: This level is designed to improve your language skills. You learn basic grammar and enhance

way that you will automatically learn the grammar rules, words and Arabic styles. At this level, we shall not
provide you the answers for the B Series.
This program is not designed to teach you day-to-day conversation in the Arabic language. This program is
also not designed to teach you how to write in Arabic language. But this program will help you in achieving
these two objectives. You need an Arabic speaking environment as well as a teacher to achieve these two
objectives. Nevertheless, the program is basically designed to teach you comprehension in the Arabic
language.

He is the One Who revealed the Book on you (O Prophet!). In it, there are established verses which are
the foundation of the Book while others are allegorical (to describe the details of the Hereafter).
So those, whose hearts have a deviation, follow the allegorical verses with an intention to mislead and to

While the scholars with established knowledge say, “We believed in whatever is coming from our Lord.”
Nobody takes heed except the people of wisdom (who say:)

existing at that time. For example, if we find a word for “axe” in the literature of a society written in
500BC, it means that axe was used by that society. Similarly the word “computer” was not available in
the English literature of 1930s. Therefore, the literature is used for getting information about that society.

Lesson 1B: Attitude of Believers
Have you noted
• There is a at the beginning of words with present tense having a pronoun “he”. For example:
(He hides), (He shapes).
• There is a at the beginning of words with present tense having a pronoun “you”. For
example: (You hide), (You shapes).
• There is a at the beginning of words with present tense having a pronoun “we”. For example:
(We differentiate), (We shapes).
• There is a at the end of words having a pronoun “our or us”. For example: (Help us),
(Be Merciful to us). This word also comes at the end of words in Past Tense. Here it
means “we”. For example: (We listened), (We committed a mistake).
• In Classical Arabic, direction of a communication changes. Observe these verses:
” .
“. ! ” “.
“..... !”
!” “ ”
! .
. “
In these verses, sentences of red color are said by the people under discussion while black words
are those of Allah. Objective of this change of direction from first person to third person and third
person to second person is to draw attention of the audience.

Surely, there are some people from the People of Book (i.e. Jews & Christians) who believe in Allah and
what was revealed to them. They are God-fearing. They do not sell Allah’s verses for a small (worldly)

That Hercules sent (a messenger) to a caravan of Quraish who came to Syria as traders, during the period
in which the Allah’s Prophet had an agreement. Abu Sufyan and other infidels of Quraish were in (that
caravan). They came to him at Jerusalem. He called them in his court, the chiefs of Rome were around

In Pre-Islamic Arabia, Arabs used to travel from Yemen to Syria
for trading. There were certain tribes who adopted the
profession of robbing trade caravans. These robbers did not use
to rob the caravans of Quraish due to their respect for the Holy
Ka’aba.

these boundaries heading towards Makkah for performing Hajj & U’mrah. People of Makkah wear Ihram
for Hajj from the Makkah and for U’mrah, they wear it from the nearest point at the boundary of

Those are the ones who will be rewarded with a lofty place for their patience. They will be welcomed with
greetings and salutations. They will live forever at that excellent dwelling and excellent living place. Say,
“My Lord does not care whether you call Him (or not). You have denied (His call), so soon the inevitable
will happen.”
.
.
We gave the wisdom to Luqman to be thankful to Allah. Whoever becomes thankful (to Allah), surely he
becomes thankful to himself. And whoever becomes thankless, then Allah is free of all wants, Worthy of
all praise. Remember when Luqman said to his son while he was enjoining him: “O my son! Don’t
associate someone with Allah. Surely the polytheism is a great offence.”
.
.
We instructed the man for his parents. His mother carried him in her womb while suffering weakness over
weakness and then weaning him for two years. So you should be thankful for Me and for your parents.
Your returning place is to Me. If both of them (your parents) argue with you to associate a deity with Me
and you do not have any knowledge about such false god, then don’t follow both of them. Treat them in
worldly matters in a good way. Follow the way of the person who returned to Me, then all of you have to
return to Me, then I will inform you about what you used to do.

In the patriarchic society of Pre-Islamic Arabia, there was a practice of divorcing wives and then
canceling the divorce in order to tease them to infinite number of times. In order to protect women, the
Quran limited the number of divorces to two. After the third divorce, the husband has no right to
cancel the divorce.
The law which was revealed to protect women, unfortunately people have started using it against them
and a heinous practice of “Halalah” (temporary marriage) has been invented. According to Islam, the
marriage is a life-time contract. If a couple divorces thrice, they are separated forever. If the woman
marries with another man and then that man divorces her or dies, she has the right to remarry the first
husband, if she wills. There is no concept of a temporary marriage in Islam. The Prophet
declared the person used in a temporary marriage is like a rented bull.

In these verses, a word is coming again and again. It has two meanings: (1) good deeds about
which all human beings agree that they are good e.g. piousness, helping poor, chastity etc. (2)
established practice / law of a society. The Quran has left many things on the society to decide e.g.
how much amount a husband should pay to his wife at the time of marriage How much he should pay
on monthly basis How a husband and wife should divide the joint responsibilities of home It is not
possible to make a universal law about it. Therefore, it is left on the society / government to decide
about it. In these verses, the word has been used in the both meanings.

not be harmed due to her child and a father will also not be harmed for his child. On the heirs (of the
father), there is a responsibility similar to that. If both of them decide with mutual agreement and
consultation to wean, there is no blame on both of them. If you decide to arrange a foster-mother for your

and not driving out (of husband’s home). If they go out (by their own to marry another person), there is no
blame on you about what they do about themselves in a decent way. Allah is the Mighty, the Wise. For
the divorced women, you have to pay reasonable maintenance, it is an obligation on the God-fearing
people. In this way Allah explains His verses for you so that you understand.

O Joseph! Soon it will be your position. This dream is a good news for you about knowledge and

Abraham. It is He who will bless upon you and will bless upon the progeny of Jacob.”

Joseph had another brother from his mother, his name was Binyamin. Jacob used to love both of them
intensely. He did not use to love anyone like that. The brothers used to be jealous with Joseph and
Binyamin. They used to be angry and used to say: “Why our father love Joseph and Binyamin more Why
our father love Joseph and Binyamin while both of them are little and weak. Why does he not love us like
Joseph and Binyamin. We are grown up and powerful. It is a strange matter.”

Joseph was a little child. He described the dream to his brothers. When they listened the dream, they
became much angry and their jealousy increased. One day, the brothers gathered and said, “Kill Joseph or
throw him in a remote land. Then your father will be only for you. His love will be pure for you.” One of
them said, “No, throw him in a well on the way. Some travelers will take him.” All brothers agreed upon

They well was dark and Joseph was alone. But Allah provided good news to Joseph and said to him:
“Don’t be grieved and don’t fear. Allah is with you. Soon your condition will change. Soon your brothers

to the king, “Make me responsible for the treasures of earth. I am a careful and knowledgeable person.”
So Joseph became responsible for the treasury of Egypt. People felt relaxed a lot and thanked to God. In

The bowl came out of the luggage of Binyamin, so the brothers ashamed but they said without any shame,

he remained silent and did not become angry. Joseph was very generous and tolerant. They said, “O
A’ziz! Surely our father is a great old man, so take anyone of us in his place. We see that you are from
righteous people.” He said, “I seek refuge of Allah that we take anyone except the one in whose luggage
we have found our property. Then we will be great offenders.”

In this way Binyamin remained with Joseph and all brothers became happy. Surely Joseph was alone since
a long time. He had not met anyone from his family. Allah had driven Binyamin to him. So why not he
lock him with himself to see and talk. Is it an offence to keep a brother with a brother

Lesson 15B: The Story of Yousuf (Joseph)

When Jacob listened this story he knew that Allah has put His Hand in it and Allah is testing him.
Yesterday, He afflicted him about Joseph and today He is afflicting him about Binyamin. Surely Allah
does not gather two afflictions. Surely Allah will not afflict him about two sons. Surely Allah will not
afflict him about two sons like Joseph and Binyamin. Surely Allah had a Secret Hand in this matter.
. .
. . .

Surely Allah had a hidden wisdom in it. Surely Allah keep testing His slaves, but then He makes it easy
for them and bless them. Then the elder son also remained in Egypt and refused to return to Canaan. Is He
afflicting about the third one as well while He had afflicted about two before This is not possible. Now
Jacob became satisfied and said, “I hope Allah will bring all of them to me. Surely He is the
Knowledgeable, the Wise.” But Jacob was a human being, he had a heart in his chest, not a piece of stone.

He mentioned Joseph and his grief reinstated. He said, “Alas! O Joseph! And your mother and his sons.”
They said, “You will keep mentioning Joseph until you will die.” Jacob said, “Surely I take my grief and
distress to Allah. I know from Allah what you do not know.”

Jacob used to know that being hopeless is thanklessness. Jacob had a great hope in Allah. Jacob sent his
sons to Egypt to search Joseph and Binyamin and to put effort in it. Jacob forbade them to be hopeless
from Allah’s mercy. The brothers went to Egypt third time. They entered to Joseph and complained about
their poverty and affliction and asked about his generosity. Here grief and love aroused in Joseph and he
was not able to control himself.

“ ” :

The sons of my father and the sons of prophets complain about their poverty and affliction to a king from
many kings. Till what time I can conceal the matter from them and till what time I shall see their
condition and till what time I will not see my father Joseph did not control himself and said to them, “Do
you know what you did with Joseph and his brother, are you not aware” The brothers knew that this is a
secret. Nobody knows it except Joseph and us. So they knew that he is Joseph.

Allah is Exalted! Is Joseph alive or did he die in the well What a peaceful news! Does Joseph became the
Prime Minister of Egypt He was the one who instructed us about the food Now, no doubt remained that
the person they are talking is Joseph, the son of Jacob. They said, “Then definitely you are Joseph.” He
said, “I am Joseph and this is my brother. Allah has blessed us. Surely the one who fears and be patient, so
Allah do not waste the reward of righteous people.”

How did he like drinks and food while his father was not taking drinks, food and sleep. The secret was
disclosed and opened. Allah wanted to give comfort to Jacob’s eyes and Jacob became blind due to
weeping a lot in grief. So Joseph said, “Take my shirt and put it on the face of my father. He will become
sighted. Bring your entire family to me.” When the men traveled to Canaan with the shirt of Joseph, Jacob
felt the smell of Joseph and said:

They said, “O our father! Seek forgiveness for us for our sins. We were the wrong-doers.” He said, “Soon
I will seek forgiveness for you from my Lord. Surely He is the Forgiver, the Merciful.” When Jacob
reached Egypt, Joseph welcomed him. Don’t ask about their happiness and their pleasure. It was a known
day at Egypt and it was a blessed day. Joseph raised his parents to the throne and all of them prostrated for
Joseph.

the sun and the moon, I saw them prostrating for me.” Joseph praised Allah at lot with purity. Joseph
thanked a great thank on that. Jacob and his progeny remained in Egypt for a long time. Jacob and his
wife died at Egypt. This great kingdom did not make Joseph busy (to avoid) Allah, it did not change him.
Joseph used to mention Allah and worship Him and fear Him. Joseph used to decree according to Allah’s
decree and used to implement Allah’s instructions.

Joseph did not use to consider the kingdom much and he did not use to consider it a big thing. Joseph did
not use to like to die the death of a king and gathered (on the Day of Judgment) with kings. But Joseph
used to love to die the death of a slave (of Allah) and gathered with pious people.

The prayer of Joseph was: “O Lord! You have given me a share in kingdom and taught me interpretation
of things. You are the Originator of the heavens and the earth. You are the friend in this world and the
hereafter. Cause me to die as a Muslim (submitter to God) and join me with pious people.” Allah caused
him to die as a Muslim and joined him with his forefathers Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. May Allah’s
blessings and peace be upon them and on our Prophet.
