INTRODUCTION

Will they not then ponder over the Qur'an, or is it that

they have locks on their hearts!? [Qur'an, 47:24]

29 (This is) a Scripture that We have revealed

unto thee, full of blessing, that they may ponder its
revelations, and that men of understanding may
reflect. [Qur'an, 38:29]

instrumental & key role in implementing Qur'anic

is immeasurable

Understanding of Qur'an, they will form one of the
best Example in the world

UQA vision for Schools
To strengthen relationship with Allah(swt)
To make Qur'an a real source of guidance for
Children & their constant companion
To develop thinking skills in children
To make the Salah & daily duas more effective and
meaningful by understanding what is being recited
To build the belief & realize that Qur'an is easy to
understand & remember
Absence of effective Qur'an curriculum
To our knowledge, the schools doesn't have an
effective Qur'anic syllabus.
Some schools that does follow a Islamic Studies
syllabus, it is ineffective and results are not
encouraging
The graduating student from school, still doesn't
develop a relationship with Noble Qur'an

UQA Concept & Unique Methodology
The research done by Dr Abdul Azeez Abdul
Raheem, towards development of one of the most
effective, efficient yet easiest way of learning
Quranic Arabic.
Techniques like Total Physical Interaction, words
relating to daily activities like Salah, and daily Duas,
enhance the learning as well as interesting
For classes like Nursery, Lkg, Ukg and First, &
Second the learning of Arabic alphabets and
Tajweed is taught in a highly interesting and
effective manner.
UQA Concept & Unique Methodology
For higher classes a UQA session(lesson or period)
contain three parts:
(1) Spoken Arabic which contains mostly conventional
Arabic phrases;
(2) Grammar; and
(3) Daily Recitations. Each of these three parts can be
taught in a completely interactive mode.
UQA Concept & Unique Methodology
Fortunately, a Muslim spends almost AN HOUR
(the cumulative time for the five daily prayers)
EVERYDAY talking WITH ALLAH, our Creator,
in Arabic!!! Therefore, we strongly believe that
teaching of the Arabic language for a Muslim should
start with these parts. There are numerous benefits
of using this approach such as:
(i) Practice is an extremely important factor in learning a new
language. During the daily prayers, we repeat about 150 to 200
Arabic words (about 50 sentences). By understanding these parts, we
will familiarize ourselves with the structure and style of Arabic
language.
UQA Concept & Unique Methodology
(ii) We will instantly feel the effect of this language learning in
our day-to-day life.
