Surat Quraish

SURAT QURAYSH:

Bismillahi-rrahmani-rraheem
"Li-eelafi Quraish.
Eelafihim riHhlata-shitaa'ee wa-Ssayf.
Falya3budou rabba hathah -lbayt.
Allathy aTt3amahum min* jou3in wa amanahum min khawf."
**I have used the number 3 to indicate the letter"ayn" since it is used so often.
li = for
eelaf =familiarity,(the "i" at the end of elafi is the kasrah under the "f")
Quraish = noblest tribe of Arabia(to which belonged the holy prophet himself).
eelafihim = eelaf is familiarity ("him" means their)
riHhlah = journey(again we read it riHhlata because we did not read it alone in the ayah it is added to the next word so we say riHhlata-shitaa-ee)
shitaa-ee = winter(notice here the aleph at the end of shitaa it is elongated,and you can see the sign~ on top of it in the quran,indicating the elongation)the "ee" is the sound of the"hamza" at the end of the word with the sound of the "kasrah".
wa =and
Ssayf = summer(notice although there is an al at tyhe beginning of shitaa-ee and the beginning of Ssayf,we do not pronounce them since they(sh,and the Ss) are shamsiyah letters).
fa =so
lya3budou = let them worship:
the added "l" at the beginning of the word is "let",
(3abada=worshipped)ya'bud =worshipping(he is),the added "ou" is for "them").
rabba =lord
hatha = this
albayt = (the) house
allathi =(he) who,(allati)=(she) who,(allatheen)=(those)who.
aTt3amahum = fed them(aTt3am=fed,"hum"=them).
min =from(against)
jou3in = (jou3) hunger,"in" is to read the two kasrahs under the letter"3".
wa = and
aamanahum = gives them security(aa,at the beginning is hamza with a maddah~,here it is He is who)
min = of
khawf = fear
