Kitab Club
Uniting under one language
The purpose of the storytelling events is to give children learning Arabic that extra exposure they need to grasp onto the language. A beneficial way to learning a language is to hear stories read in that language. Stories help bring alive the language and spark interest in the child. Alhamdulilah, bless to host yet another amazing mashAllaah storytelling event that leaves one inspired (young as well as the older) to strive in glory while on this journey to learning the most precious language of them all.....Arabic!
The children in KC classes had performed a skit in Arabic and then translated into Englsih before welcoming our guest presenter. The kids really enjoyed the story reading and interacting with the storyteller jubilantly while using as much Arabic that they know. Some of the kids in the club speak classical Arabic fluently,mashaAllaah. Key to learning any language, is to surround yourself with hearing and speaking the language.
‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said:
“Learn the Sunnah and learn Arabic; learn the Qur’an in Arabic for it is in Arabic”.
He also said:
“Learn Arabic for it is part of your Religion and learn how the estate of the deceased should be divided (al-Faraa’id) for these are part of your Religion”.
