Bismillahi-rrahmani-rraheem
Ara-ayta llathi yukath~ibu biddeen.
Fa thalika llathi yadou-lyateem.
Wa la yaHhuDdu aala Ttaami-lmiskeen.
Fa waylun lilmuSsalleen.
Allatheena hum aan Ssalatihim sahoon.
Allathena hum yura-ouna ,wayamnaouna almaoun.
Meanings of words:
1)Ara-ayta = did you see
*(ra-a means he saw,ra-at =she saw,ra-aw =they saw,ra-ayna=we saw, ra-ayta=I saw,or you sawetc)
*(a at the beginning of the word ara-ayta is a letter used for questioning,here meaning did).
llathi = it originally is allathi but because there is a fatha at the end of ara-ayta and the a at the beginning of allathi is aleph waSsl we do not pronounce it.
yukath~bu = denies (disbelieves), past tense kath~ba=denied, I deny=ukath~bu.
*I am using this sign ~ instead of an arabic sign called shadda,this shadda means that the letter is repeated twice once silent with a sukoon on top and tha other moving with fatha or Ddammah or kasrah on top,so when the l;etter is read it has to sound like two letters(as t in letter.)
bi= in
-ddeen =religion , in thus case it is the Day of Judgement.
2)Fa =so
thalika = that one
yadou = repulses
lyateem = the orphan , yateem =orphan, al= the(but here we do not read it alyateem when read with the previous word).
3)wa = and
la = does not
yaHhuDdu =encourage
aala =on(to)
Ttaam= food

Meanings of words:
1)Ara-ayta = did you see
*(ra-a means he saw,ra-at =she saw,ra-aw =they saw,ra-ayna=we saw, ra-ayta=I saw,or you sawetc)
*(a at the beginning of the word ara-ayta is a letter used for questioning,here meaning did).
llathi = it originally is allathi but because there is a fatha at the end of ara-ayta and the a at the beginning of allathi is aleph waSsl we do not pronounce it.
yukath~bu = denies (disbelieves), past tense kath~ba=denied, I deny=ukath~bu.
*I am using this sign ~ instead of an arabic sign called shadda,this shadda means that the letter is repeated twice once silent with a sukoon on top and tha other moving with fatha or Ddammah or kasrah on top,so when the l;etter is read it has to sound like two letters(as t in letter.)
bi= in
-ddeen =religion , in thus case it is the Day of Judgement.
2)Fa =so
thalika = that one
yadou = repulses
lyateem = the orphan , yateem =orphan, al= the(but here we do not read it alyateem when read with the previous word).
3)wa = and
la = does not
yaHhuDdu =encourage
aala =on(to)
Ttaam= food
ilmiskeen=the indigent(poor and needy)
4)fa =so
waylun =wayl is the name of a river in Hell(un is the sound of the two Ddammas on top of the l)
li = for(to)
-lmuSsalleen = those who pray
5)hum =who

1)Innaa=We have
(I added an extra "a" at the end of the word indicating what is called"madd",which means elongating the aleph at the end,so it sounds like two aa's which is indicated by a crooked line on top of the aleph which is the "madd' sign).
2)a'aTtaynak = given you
a'aTtaynakum(given you P.M.),a'aTtaynahum(given them M.)
a'ataynaki(singular feminine),a'aTtaynahunna(given them F.)
3)al-kawthar = the name of a river in heaven(or fountain)which Allah has promised the prophet (sala Allahu alyhi wasallam).
*again notice here that in the reading of the ayah we read it
-lkawthar,because of the lam shamsiyah.
4) fa = so
5)Ssalli= pray
6)li =to
7)rabbika =your Lord(rabb=Lord,ka=pronoun ,your,rabbikum=your Lord M.P.)
(8) InHhar = sacrifice(again we read it wa-nHhar,because here we have what is called aleph mawsoolah,meaning connected so we do not sound the "a" we just connect it to the preceding letter in this case
"wa-nHhar",unlike the one that has a hamza on top which must be read "a" as in apple such as "antum" in surat alkafiroon ayah (5).
9)inna = it is
10) shani-aka =(your,"ka")hater
11)huwa =he
12)al-abtar = cut off(again notice here the "al" at the beginning of the word is al-shamsiyah so when it read in the middle of a sentence we do not pronounce the "a").

itha = if
ja-a = came(he),ja-at(she came),ja-ou(they came),ji'-na(we came)
naSsr = victory(here it means Allah's help)

1-Here I would like you to notice something concerning the reading of the fatha and Ddammah and kasrah,if you stop at the end of an aya the letter does not have to be read with the vowel,example:
Al-fat-Hhu(the last word in the first aya)is written with a Ddammah on top of the Hh,so it is read fat-Hhu,but when we stop at the word itself we read it "fat-Hh" no "u",the Ddammah is nullified,if however you plan to read the first two ayas non-stop,that is without stopping at fatHh,then it is read like this:
"Itha ja a naSsru-llahi wal-fatHhu wara ayta-nnasa ...etc"
so the same with the other words at the end of any ayah,if you want to stop,then there is no vowel sound.
2-Also the two fatHhas on top of the letter "a" in the word "afwaja",if we are reading the next ayah as well without stopping we will sound the two fatHhas and it will be "afwajan",if we stop at the word itself then we say "afwaja",withouit sounding the vowels.
It will be read thus if we do not stop:
"fee deen-llahi afwajan fa sabbiHh biHhamdi....etc"
3-ja a* = the last a should be read like "a" in 'apple'
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The date of the sura was only a few months before the passing away of the prophet (sala Allahu alyhi wasallam).
"When comes the Help of Allah and the victory,and thou dost see the
People enter Allah's religion in crowds":
The prophet migrated to Madinah,a persecuted man.In madinah all the forces of truth and righteousness rallied around him,and the efforts by the Makkans and their confederates to destroy him and his community recoiled on their own heads.Graduallay all the outlying parts of Arabia ranged themselves round his standard and the bloodless conquest of makkah was the crown and prize of his patience and endeavour.
Every man should humble himself before Allah,confess his human frailties and seek Alllah's grace,attributing any success that he gets in his work,not to his own merits but to the goodness and mercy of Allah.

Abu lahabs wife was a woman of equally passionate spite and cruelty against the the person of the holy prophet.She used to tie bundles of thorns with ropes and twisted palm-leaf fiber and strew themin about on dark nights in the paths which the prophet was expected to take,in order to cause him bodily injury.

Surat Annass
Assalamu alykum warahamatullahi wabarakatu
I am starting from the last suras ,because they are used in salat and are short and easier to learn by heart.
SURAT "ANNASS":
This early Makkan surah concludes the quran,in it is an appeal to trust Allah rather than in man,warning us especially about the whispers of the shaytan within our hearts.
This sura is one of two,called :"Al-mu'awithatayn",the other being Alfalaq.These two suras are read for seeking refuge in Allah subhanhu wata'ala.
*They should be read after every salat,plus ayat al-kursi(ayah 255)in surah2(al-baqarah),then one blows in his hands and wipes his face and whatever one can from the body.

Qul aouthu birabbi-nnass.
Maliki-nnass.
Ilahi-nnass.
Min sharril-wasswass-ilkhannass,
Allathi yu-wass wissu fee sudoorinnass.
Mina-aljinnati wannass.
Meanings of words:
-Qul =say
-aouthu =I seek refuge
here the source of the verb aouthu is aatha.
-bi =with
-rabb=the Lord and Cherisher
-annass=mankind
*we read it : rabbi-nnass,because there is a kasrah under the b in rabb.
-malik = The king(ruler)
-ilah =the god(judge)
-min =from
-sharr=mischief(evil)
-wass-wass=whisperer
-khannass= who withdraws
-allathi= he who
- yu-wass-wissu=whispers
*this word is the verb for the noun (wass-wass)
-fee=into
-sudoor=hearts
-min=among(from)
al-jinnati=the jinns
*Evil insinuates itself in all sorts of insidious ways from within to sap man's will,which was given to him by Allah.
This power of evil maybe Satan,or evil men,or the evil inclinations within man's own will.For there are 'evil ones' among men and jinns,inspiring each other with flowery discourses by the way of deception.They secretly whisper evil,then withdraw,to make their net the more subtle and alluring.
------------------------------------------------------------
*Note:
In arabic the verbs and the subject could be in one word,for example the verb "kataba"(to write):
(ana) aktubu = I write
Huwa yaktubu =he writes
hiya taktubu = she writes
(hum) yaktuboun =they (male)write
*All I need to say is :
"aktubu",and the it understood right away that I write,no need for I ,because of the "a" at the beginning of the verb.
*also "yaktubu" =(he) writes,and without saying 'he' all I need to say is yaktubu,so you know from the "y" that it is he who is writing.
* "taktubu" =she writes....etc
So here (a'outhu) the "a" is for "I".
2)seek refuge is all in one word,there is no exact english word for this meaning,so we need the two.

I am starting from the last suras ,because they are used in salat and are short and easier to learn by heart.
SURAT "ANNASS":
This early Makkan surah concludes the quran,in it is an appeal to trust Allah rather than in man,warning us especially about the whispers of the shaytan within our hearts.
This sura is one of two,called :"Al-mu'awithatayn",the other being Alfalaq.These two suras are read for seeking refuge in Allah subhanhu wata'ala.
*They should be read after every salat,plus ayat al-kursi(ayah 255)in surah2(al-baqarah),then one blows in his hands and wipes his face and whatever one can from the body.

Learning Arabic from the Quran
Assalamu alykum warahamatullahi wabarakatuh
Yes,quran is the best source of perfect Arabic,so learn from it.
The ones who come here will notice that I have broken up the arabic words in the quranic verses to help those who don't know arabic accumulate as many new words as possible,also when it comes to conjugation of the verbs,I add different persons ,so you will be able to use the verbs in your everyday use.
(I had another discussion board with all this and now I am saving my work in this blog).
