The Pathway

Fiqh module: -

On this module at this level, students are exposed to the Fiqh behind the five pillars of Islam: Zakat, Fasting, Hajj. Note that Salah has been covered at both the restoration level and ABC 1. We discuss the matters at length; how to perform the acts and what is allowed and disallowed within them. We discuss these points from a classical-scholastic point of view looking at different opinions and choosing the most correct based on the Ijtihad of great scholars. We also treat the Fiqh of marriage, it’s contracts conditions, divorce and child custody. Interaction and questions are greatly encouraged.

Hadith: -

Students are taught some basic but foundational Mustalahal Hadith (terminologies of Hadith). They understand when a Hadith is weak, authentic, fair fabricated and the implications behind them. They break down Hadith into their forms with a broad view of knowing what an Isnad and a Matn is. Students are then introduced to the forty Hadith of Imam Nawawi. Some Hadith giants are discussed and their contributions to the field of Hadith are also explored.

Muhadatha and Reading:-

Once again, at this level, students are again encouraged using “Arabiyyah Bayna Yadayk” to continue amassing more vocabularies and speaking in Arabic. They continue with more complex sentences. Students at this level are alert with regards to the difference between masculine and feminine form. This module in a nutshell is designed to boost students capacities to speak and read Arabic texts.

Qawa’id (grammar):

On this module the level of work is a bit more advance in grammar. The Key is used as a core resource. The students at this level are exposed to more complex grammatical analysis helping them to read, write and speak better. They do a lot of drills in class and out of class. They also look deeper into pronouns, nouns, verbs and more. The relationship of words composed in sentences are studies so as to gear up students with comprehension skills. This module also assists students in understanding how the Quran works from a language standpoint.

Qur’an Tajweed:

As at all levels thus far, students are always required to perfect their recitation of the Quran. The examples and Ahkams given in the previous classes are cemented at this point. Students do drills using the Quran in class to pin point Tajweed rules and explain them to the teacher. This is a very interesting class as usually students at this point have grasped the primary essentials necessary for a good reading of the Quran.
