You are invited to build repository of your own Translation having Prophet's Seerah as your Guide.
Who can join?
Anyone can join, who knows how to read the Holy Quran, but doesn’t understand the meaning of it.
You could be the one, who must have tried but frustrated and exhausted therefore unwillingly abandoned the idea of understanding the Holy Quran.
Or you must have been raised with the idea that Quran is only for recitation. It is too difficult to understand.
How formal or casual your relationship with the Holy Quran, these courses offer free online tutorial that will enable you to translate each sura, each verse word by word.
Create your repository of your own translation next to great Translators like Pickthal, Mohsin Khan and Yusuf Ali.
How can I do my own translation?
“How can I work in that website, if I don’t know how to do the translation in the first place?”
The website shows each technique how to translate each word, each phrase and eventually each verse.
This is not a website with loaded grammar. It is the website of tips and tricks. The website will just reveal these one by one.
You don’t need to memorize anything. You can go deep into the Quran with the fully aided worksheet. May Allah SWT guide us.
You must be waiting to know what is the course curriculum? What is the lesson plan? How many words to memorize? How many units will it take? How long is each unit? Lots of questions are just obvious.
The coursework is divided into 2 Frameworks.

5 Categories of the Words
How we learn Quranic Words?
The logical explanation is here.
Category-1 Words:
Names and the words related to Allah SWT
Allah chose to create humanity with a special purpose: to recognize, worship, and serve Him. Allah says, ‘And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me’ (51:56).”
Category-2 Words: “Names of all the Prophets”.
Category-3 Words: “All other Names”.
Category-4 Words: “Helping Words”.
Category-5 Words:
Noun Verb
Action words are “Verb”. Action that is recommended and what is prohibited. The Quran also reminds us, ‘And do good; indeed, Allah loves the doers of good’. [2:195] Verbs are supplemented by Noun. Therefore, this group of words are: “Verb-Noun”.
Root is the basis of All Arabic words.
Words of Quran originate mostly from 3-lettered words. These are called roots. Just by knowing one simple 3-lettered root, a vast combination of words can be understood.
Here is one example with kha-lam-Qaf.
Lots of Arabic words can be originated from kha-lam-khaf.
This 3-lettered word is root and acts as the skeleton of the word.
Different patterns are added to this “root” to form a variety of words.

Prelude to Seerah Framework
Lets review here one by one.
How it works?
Quick “How-to-series”
We will start our trainings with “How-to-series”. Meeting grammatical elements and how to work each of these. These are core concepts that outline action steps. Every lesson is easy to followed by lots of exercise or Quiz. We call here “Apply” section.
How Approach works?
Getting started
Next, we will start with Sura Ikhlass and meet small doze of grammar just to learn the sura.
Then we move to Sura Falaq and learn whatever found to be new to have complete understanding of Sura Falaq and build our Grammar reserve. With this approach, we will “almost” done with all the Grammar in 11 suras that we listed above. We will have Capstone course to Summarize the Grammar. And Prelude section will reinforce it.
Journey of Reverence
Grammar Framework is the doorway of the Seerah Framework. We will be done with Grammar but we will have deep insight on different words and type of verse. We call it “Word and Verse strategies”. Alone with Grammar our journey will stumble. We need Context, that can be gained with Prophet’s Seerah.
FAQs
How much we expect to learn only with 11 suras?
A humble seed holds the incredible journey of becoming a towering Oak tree. Lots of information is capsuled in 11 suras. Around 90% of the Grammar will be studied through these 11 suras. Also our curriculum is very slim. We are only studying essential or Must-know-Grammar.
How much Grammar to Learn?
Each Quranic word may be overloaded with Grammar. There are some grammar very essential. If you don’t recognize that, translation will be incorrect. We label that as “Must know grammar”. Rest of the grammar is “Good to know Grammar”. In this website, we only be focusing on Must-Know-Grammar. This way our curriculum has very slim dose of Grammar.
How the words will be learnt?
We saw 5 categories of words. Execpt Verb and Noun, rest 4 types we will be learnt by small list. These will be listed on the left panel. Once we move forward with Sura Alaq of seerah framework, we will learn more about words. Context will play critical role. We will meet word strategies.
Grammar Framework is the doorway to
Seerah Framework
What is Seerah Framework?
Seerah Framework is not a coursework, it is an expedition.
Seerah is a narrative, anecdote, history and account of the life of Prophet Muhammad (Sal) that unfolded gradually as the Holy Quran revealed to him verse by verse.
How Seerah Framework helps understand the text of the Verse?
Emotional Engagement: Seerah of the Prophet connect with emotions, creating a deeper investment in the learning process, which makes information more memorable and impactful.
Contextualization: Stories place abstract concepts into a tangible context, making them more relatable and easier to understand.
Cognitive Development: Stories stimulate imagination and critical thinking by encouraging people to analyze motivations, and evaluate different perspectives.
In essence, Prophets Seerah provide a framework that allows us to connect with information on a personal and emotional level, which significantly enhances the ability to understand and retain complex topics.
He it is who raised among the inhabitants of Mecca an Apostle from among themselves, who recites to them, his communications purifies them, and teaches the Book and the wisdom, although they were before certainly in error. [62:2]
O Prophet, indeed We have sent you as a witness and a bringer of good tidings and a warner. And one who invites to Allah, by His permission, and an illuminating lamp. [33:45-46]
