Assalaamu Alaikum, I recently joined this yahoo group: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/QWOTD/ Qur'anic Word Of The Day As the name implies, you receive an email once a day, with a new word from the Qur'aan. It has a couple of ayaat in Arabic with the new word, as well as a transliteration and translation. Plus, a review of a word used in a previous lesson. It will be useful insha'Allah for learning vocabulary and in reading Qur'aan. Today's word and review: YAHTADUNA (يَهْتَدُونَ ) = THEY RECEIVE GUIDANCE (ya', ha, ta', dal, waw, nun) wa laqad atayna musa al-kitaba la`alayhum yahtaduna 23:49 And We gave Moses the Book, in order that they might receive guidance. وَلَقَدْ آتَيْنَا مُوسَى الْكِتَابَ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَهْتَدُونَ wa `alamatin wa an-najmi hum yataduna 16:16 And marks and sign-posts; and by the stars (men) guide themselves. وَعَلامَاتٍ وَبِالنَّجْمِ هُمْ يَهْتَدُون ____________________________________________________________ REVIEW: MARADUN ( مَّرَضٌ) = DISEASE (mim, ra, Dad ) Wa amma al-ladhi fi qulubihim maradun fajadathum rijsan ila rijsihim wa matu wa hum kafirun 9:125 But those in whose hearts is a disease,- it will add doubt to their doubt, and they will die in a state of Unbelief. وَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ فِي قُلُوبِهِم مَّرَضٌ فَزَادَتْهُمْ رِجْسًا إِلَى رِجْسِهِمْ وَمَاتُواْ وَهُمْ كَافِرُونَ Fi qulubihim maradun fazadahumu Allahu maradan walahum `adhabun alimun bima kanu yakdhibuna 2:10 In their hearts is a disease; and Allah has increased their disease: And grievous is the penalty they (incur), because they are false (to themselves).
