LEARN WITH SOURCES
Learn steadily, one step at a time.
Seven days is a suggestion: spend longer at any stop. This is a study pathway, not a prescribed worship programme or qualification.
- DAY 1
Separate the basic terms
Read about Quran, surah, ayah, translation and tafsir. Note that a translation conveys meaning rather than replacing the original Arabic.
- DAY 2
Read a chapter in context
Open the Fatihah guide, then the full text and commentary. Write one theme in your own words without presenting it as a quotation.
- DAY 3
Choose a sustainable plan
Check your edition’s page count. Choose a realistic duration in the planner and make your first week’s schedule.
- DAY 4
Learn preparation for prayer
Read the wudu sequence. Note any uncertainty about required and other acts to discuss with a teacher.
- DAY 5
Learn the basic prayer sequence
Match rakah, bowing and prostration to the basic guide. Work with a teacher on pronunciation and movement rather than relying on text alone.
- DAY 6
Connect fasting with the calendar
Read the timetable method in the Ramadan guide. Find your city’s official timing source and note possible calendar differences.
- DAY 7
Review giving and your questions
Review how zakat, sadaqah, fitr and fidyah differ. Write down three remaining questions with their relevant sources and context.
At the end of a session, record a term you learned, an explanation you found in a source and an unanswered question. Let that question guide your next reading.
