Audio Recitations for download:

 

These links point to the pages which list all surahs recited by that particular Qari, not this particular surah. Simply select this lesson's surah, insha Allah and download or listen to.

 

 


Tips:

 

You can follow the lesson outline in order or mix and match to suit your needs. You might allot one or two sections per day, depending on your schedule and level of the student. I think lder students should be encouraged to do many activities on their own, but teacher should take care to listen to recitations and help as needed. I like my children to learn to be independent but I also like spending time with them doing the lessons and making sure they understand the material.

 

 

 

Suratul Asr text

Arabic text and translation adapted from "Interpretation of the Meaning of The Noble Qur.aan in the English Language" in HTML HELP from Fatwa-Online.com

In the Name of Allâh, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

 1. By Al-'Asr (the time).

 2. Verily, man is in loss,

 3.Except those who believe  and do righteous good deeds, and recommend one another to the truth

II. Learning About This Surah

 

1. Reading

Read the Surah in Arabic and English as in the beginning of the Tafsir. Teacher can read to student, but older students should read it themselves (preferable in presence of teacher).

Read the complete tafsir for this surah (pp.582-584). Teacher can also break the reading down into smaller parts, if desired.

 

Optional: As student reads the tafsir, have him turn statements into study questions and write them down. There is a form in the Study Guide Templates Pack where student can record these questions.

 

NOTE: During the duration of this lesson, it is a good idea to have student read and recite the surah daily while the teacher listens.

 

 

 

2. Vocabulary

 

A. Review

There are many basic words that appear over and over in the Quraan.  Quiz student regularly on this basic vocabulary.  You might dictate the English of these words to student for him to write in Arabic.  Keep a list of missed words (student does not know definition or spelling).

 

inna, iladheena, sabr, illa

 

B. In this Surah

Teach vocabulary depending on the student's level.

 

For more advanced students, use the Ayaat breakdown form in the Study Guide Pack to write each Arabic word and its corresponding English translation. In most cases, teacher should complete this activity with the student.

 

For students less advanced in Arabic, pick out key vocabulary (especially nouns) and assign activities to help them learn the words. Here are some vocabulary words to use or get you started.. If you feel student can handle more, select more words from the surah.

 

Students should know the following Arabic terms at the minimum:

 

insaan, 'asr, khusr, haqq, salihaat

 

Activities to practice the vocabulary:

  • Write each new word (x number of times)

  • Write review words (x number of times)

  • Take dictation on vocabulary words

  • Write the current ayaat or surah

  • Alphabetize Arabic/English vocabulary

  • Match English to Arabic words

  • Given the English word, write the Arabic word

  • Given a clue, write the correct Arabic word

  • Unscramble a word or ayaat

  • Supply the missing letters in words or missing word in ayaat

  • Make flashcards to review vocabulary and concepts

 

 

Also see TJ's Spelling Page for more spelling activities

 

 

3. Grammar

Here are some topics you might use  for grammar lessons:

 

  • Conjugation of verbs presented in the ayaat (amana, 'amala)

This is just a suggestion. If student has an Arabic class, try to match the concepts that they are  learning/have learned with those found in the surah.

 

 

4. Memorization

If student has not memorized this surah already, set up a memorization schedule with the schedule form in the Study Guide Pack.  Work together to establish a realistic goal. 

 

Schedule daily memorization sessions, after salaat are often good times.

 

Have student use something such as TJ's Hifz Helpers to help them keep track of their repetitions during the sessions. With younger students you might also count off the repetitions with your hands (counting up or down)

 

Hifz Helper-Counter Mat

(food theme)

 

 

Hifz Helper-Counter Mat

(vehicle theme)

 

 

5. Putting It Together

 

After completing the reading, assign these activities to help student check and apply what they have learned, insha Allah.

 

 

Recall:

 

Answer the following questions:

 

1. What was Musaylimah the Liar attempting to do when he "recited" to Amr Ibn Al As?

2. According to the tafsir, what time is al Asr?

3. Allah made an exception for those who ______________________ in their ______________ and _________________________ with their_____________________.

4. In this surah, it tells us we should have patience with what?

 

 

 

Think About It!

 

Have you gotten naseehah (religious advice) from someone? How did you respond? Have you given naseehah to someone? How did they respond?  How do you think you should respond when getting naseehah from someone?

 

List some righteous acts that you do with your limbs? What are some bad acts that you should avoid?

List some righteous acts that you have done today, insha Allah.
