Activities: Listen to Hajja Maria recite murattal and mujawwad
Listen to Surat al-Qadr (Qur'an 97). Click on the Arabic to start the recitation (prefixed by "Bismillahirrahmanirrahim", "in the Name of the Merciful and Compassionate God"). The Sura (chapter) of al-Qadr (Night of Decree) comprises 5 verses (ayas). You will hear the verse recited, while seeing synchronized Arabic script, transliteration, and translation. On Tuesday we will attempt to perform Surat al-Qadr together, so listen to the recitation as often as you can.
Surat al-Qadr, transliteration, translation, interpretation. Surat al-Qadr is the key Qur'anic chapter mentioning the descent of the Qur'an itself; thus it is self-referential.
