SESSION – 3 SURAH 101: AL-FEEL

I. SPOKEN ARABIC: Use the three-step-procedure (3SP). Say the following: (1) when you start
anything; (2) when you see something good in others.

except with Allah. (There is) no power Allah willed, whatever In the name of Allah

II. GRAMMAR: Use TPI (See page xvii at the end). Please note that the following six attached
pronouns have occurred thousands of times in the Qur’an. Since they occur in an attached form, they can not
be counted alone. Consequently, these 5 minutes of grammar part using TPI should be taken with love and
excitement.

Please note that from now on we will practice ‫ﻲ‬ ‫ِﻫ‬ (she) and ‫ﺎ‬‫ﻬ‬‫ﺭﺑ‬ (her Lord). We will focus only on these
singular feminine forms because they occur frequently in the Qur’an. For details on TPI for feminine
gender, see page xvii. Please note that we have used right hand for showing masculine gender forms.
Therefore we will use left hand for showing feminine gender forms. In a class, both the teacher and the
student should practice this part together.

III. THE MAIN LESSON: Use 3SP. Ponder over the verses & take lessons.
