If you'd like to join the classes live
in the masjid then click on the link
below inshallah it will take you to a
telegram group that has the details of all
the class timings, the dates, the days, the
addresses, and the locations of the masjid. So
click on that link and hopefully we see
you there, Insha'Allah.
We'll take a couple of questions.
That's a very very vast topic.
Akhasa'at al-'Alim
is asking how does one,
have the correct manners with his teacher?
I'll mention a couple of etiquettes inshallah,
When you are sitting in front of the
teacher,
you shouldn't be playing around with anything.
Unless of course you are using your phone
to write down the notes, other than that
you should not be checking
your phone.
You should completely what? Put the phone to
the side.
Right? Whatever it might be, you should be
looking directly at him, not looking around. Of
course sometimes it happens when you get tired,
but should be looking straight at him.
Even the way you sit,
shouldn't be sitting in front of him while
you have your feet out.
Right?
Also the way you address him.
The way you address him. It shouldn't be
that you address him like everyone else.
Like Abhishek, I'm
gonna shout out and say
That's not appropriate.
Right?
That's not appropriate at all.
You need to address
your teacher in a better way.
Right?
Most teachers when you speak to them they'll
say, okay I'm just your brother, I'm just
your brother.
Right? I'm just your brother. You can address
me however you want, and he genuinely means
that.
Right?
However, you as a student,
you should not be taking that.
Right? If you look in the books of
Adab, Alkir Uth Sami Al Mutakalim, it says
that you should speak to your teacher in
the best possible way.
Right? Or address him in the best possible
manner.
Whether it's shirk or and some they mention
things like 'alim.
Of course, these are titles
for those who deserve it, right?
Even if he's your Quran teacher, the one
that's teaching you Alif Bat Taq,
should you be speaking to him like everyone
else?
No. Let alone say, Yo listen, what was
that thing again?
No. Hanamayi Surah.
It's not appropriate at all.
Even if he's teaching Alif Batah,
shouldn't be addressing him the same way
as everyone else.
These are just some.
You shouldn't be raising your voice when he's
speaking, you should wait for him to this,
to finish.
Right?
Okay, the technique.
Oh, excellent.
Where's Mohammed?
He didn't remind me, Sala'il Abdul.
The technique
because yesterday I recorded
a video with brother 'Abdullahi
from East
Studies at the Medina College. We demonstrated
the softening up technique. What was it called?
You You called it something else that you
found out.
A Space
Repetition Method.
That's another fancy way of saying it. I
call it a softening up technique.
Insha'Allah Ta'ala.
With this technique you can memorize a lot
in a short space of time, this is
only after Allah
opens the doors of
heavt and knowledge for you.
But you have to really put the effort
in, and it's a technique that can help.
It should be available soon. As for muraja,
when it comes to revising the knowledge or
solidifying the knowledge, right?
Let's just talk about the Quran for a
moment.
You have
your new health, which they call sabak.
Right?
So it's in all the zah.
Sabak.
Which is the new portion that you've just
memorized.
Then you also have what they call in
Arabic, Moraj akhari, by fog always called an
Urdu.
I come from one of these
Urdu madrasas and they used to have this
and in Arab world, they have it as
old Moraj Aqarib. Does anyone know the name
for it?
We don't have many older speakers.
Which
is what? Close
revision.
And Shashayahu,
you're not adding anything, let me know, yeah?
Shashayahu is a
It's a Quran teaching here, long barik.
The close Mora Jaa.
So let's just say for example today you
memorize 3, and then tomorrow you do another
3, you have to be connecting them together,
right? Reading to your teacher, all of these
pages now connected,
Connecting it and strengthening it, and it might
not necessarily always be
fully strong and solid.
You guys with me?
So you're going to make mistakes, but whenever
you do make the mistakes what do you
do? You put a line under it using
a pencil.
Hoping that you don't ever make this mistake
again.
That's why you should keep your same
for 8 years.
And I had my mistakes in there.
If you look at it, you think that
it's a kitab from 50 years ago because
of how
dark the pages have become.
So it has your mistakes on there,
right?
That always remind you whenever you read.
So you put these lines, and then you
rub it off khalas once it becomes solid.
So you have closed and then you also
have
Far revision.
So the more you memorize,
the more you have to do on a
day to day basis like 1 Jews.
I remember when I was in the Majd,
I had this system
given to me by a Malaysian brother.
And brothers and sisters, I am not muthin.
I make mistakes in salah.
Thing can testify to
it, Abdul Aziz.
Right? This was a long time ago, you
make mistakes.
Right? However, it's something that can really help.
Right?
After memorizing the Quran,
He would ensure that you read every juz
without mistakes.
You have to read every juz without mistake,
and then you go through like that 30
juz. If you're making mistakes, it will tell
you to do that juz again.
Might take you a month, might take you
a month and a half because some may
be that you have to repeat it.
After 30
Jews have just been read, you read 111
like that. You do what? 2 Jews every
day.
How long will it take for you to
finish now? 15.
Then, I believe it was
3, and then he jumped to 5 or
maybe jumped from 2 to 5.
5 everyday,
and then you move to 10.
10 juz in one sitting, but you're reading
very quickly here. I remember,
it would take us something like 13 minutes
to do a juz, which is not advisable.
It was one of my biggest regrets because
the huroof,
they start going into one another.
Right?
And then you do twin you do 15
Jews in one sitting, another 15 Jews in
another, And then you do 20 Jews
in one sitting,
and then you do 30 Jews. The whole
Quran in one sitting, which may take you
a bit,
works out to be like 15 minutes.
Maybe what?
6 hours?
Maybe more than that.
So this is the niram that he had.
As for the system that I learned from
that Sheikh, Sheikh Abdul Rahman, Rishaydan,
Hafidullah ta'ala is,
when you now memorize
and you put portions together,
you have to make sure it's like water.
And you always do it every day you're
reading it, every single day.
And then when you reach a 100 lines
of poetry, you read it to the teacher,
a 100 lines every single day. If it's
hadith,
a hundred hadith every single day, it takes
longer to forget.
The foundation is solid.
Right? The foundation is solid.
Even if you leave it for a long
time, you go back, you just need to
touch it up a little bit, it comes
back.
And then he would also make you read
for example bay'uniya
backwards.
So everyday if you're doing a 100 hadith,
100 hadith, it become your norm.
It becomes very very strong, right?
So these are the mooraja methods that a
sheikh And if you make one mistake, he
will send you back.
Sometimes
you're fortunate and allowed 2 mistakes.
And it's possible.
Look at Surat Fatiha. Why is Surat Fatiha
so strong?
Come on, brothers.
You read every day, every single day you
read it.
You don't need to ever revise it. Does
anyone ever revise what's that?
No one does.
Right? Because you always read it. And if
you're doing something every single day,
right? It is bound to stick
and last much longer.
Exactly brothers and sisters.
And also, one thing that I remember now
that Abdulaziz reminded me,
as he was standing up, he saw permission
when leaving. And the etiquette of when leaving
a gathering is that you ask, can I
leave? And then the sheikh says that.
Yeah?
When the teacher gives him the permission to
leave.
And also from the etiquettes,
that inshallah for upcoming events and programs,
that you're trying to sit as close as
possible to the teacher
for listening.
Isn't that what we take from the hadith
of Jibreel? How far was Jibreel sitting on
Prophet SAW as Samhain?
How far?
And he was thigh to thigh, right or
knee to knee.
His knees were connected.
So it shows that it needs to be
wet, it needs to get as close as
possible.
That's of course you've got back problem or
you're holding age and you're sitting at the
back.
Going back to the point that I mentioned,
right?
Everyday,
like, just do a 100 100 100 100.
Even if you make mistakes, make sure you
put a line.
And then you remove it, you And every
mistake,
you say it maybe what, a 100 times,
and you'll never forget it. Insha'Allah.
Insha'Allah.
Allah, I have 3 more minutes.
Shari'a'hub, you wanna add anything?
Sorry, sisters.
I think last time around we answered most
of your questions.
Any
other questions? We have 2 minutes.
He's asking about Musha'aab, and again brothers, like
I said, I'm not
when it comes to the Quran. Right? However
that which I've seen really helps,
is when you get stuck on a mutashabi,
or one of these
hard similar ayats,
you write on the side of the page
that which is that which it is similar
to.
Right?
You have
right?
Alambi I believe.
Muminun it is what?
Fattakun.
So you just write it there. It's like
you're waiting to stumble
on one of these verses which you end
up, and that's a very productive way of,
you know, solidifying the mushawi'abi'at.
As for using one of these books that
has a lot of the similar ayaat, it
might not necessarily always be good for you.
However, this is a method that a lot
of people do definitely agree with.
Jazakum Nakheel and again brothers and sisters for
attending
with such short notice.
It was very very late that it was
announced.
