Those who have not yet committed themselves to serious study of the Arabic Language may not be able to follow the Arabic module of each lesson. Do not get discouraged, but instead allow these brief modules to be daily reminders about the importance of studying the language of the Quran. We have a Book of revelation from our Lord, preserved in the language it was revealed in, for over 1,400 years. It contains guidance, legislation, and information about the purpose of life and what happens after we die! It clarifies the Truth regarding the matters that the people around us differ over. So, of course, we recognize the importance of learning Arabic, and we ask Allah for success!
This workbook has not been designed for independent self-study. To maximize your benefit from these lessons, attend our classes at the masjid or tune in to the live nightly broadcasts at 7:45 pm (EDT) and 9:15 pm (EDT). If you are unable to do that, then download or listen to the recordings of the classes and follow along using this workbook.

Very Beneficial
This class has been amazing so far, very beneficial for those who want to increase in getting close to their creator, Allah. The curriculum not only covers Ramadan, but also goes through many topics of Islam that must be understood. Can't wait for the next series!!
Ramadan Lessons!
We love the Ramadan Lessons series... looking forward to more!
Easy way for good and consistent deeds in Ramadan
Alhumdulilah, this workbook was an easy way of gaining important and practical knowledge in Ramadan. Lessons are not just about Ramadan. I would recommended it for youth and elders. Whilst the hours in Ramadan may be long, the lectures are kept short and informative which accompany the easily accessible notes in the workbook (all info is in the workbook, you just have to add some definitions and examples). Teacher Moosa Richardson is very clear and concise in his explanations, and the book is well organized. It’s an easy way to stay consistent with learning.
Very beneficial. Jazakum Allahu khayran
I bought this book just before Ramadan after watching a flip through video. I am now listening to the recordings daily with my 10 year old. It is very beneficial. As a student of Arabic, I think the way the Arabic study section is fitted in is awesome. Both me and my son are benefitting. The format of the book is great. Coincise enough to be doable on a long fasting day but still covering a lot in each session. I ask Allah to bless the compiler and everyone involved in the production of this book and reward them with good.
Amazing. Kept me focused all throughout Ramadan!!!
Alhamdulilah. I have used this all throughout Ramadan, and found it extremely useful and beneficial. I have learnt so many new things, and looked forward to every lesson. The Arabic Language Benefit has motivated me to study Arabic after Ramadan so hopefully next year, I can complete the activities alongside the Ustadh. May Allāh bless the Ustadh and all those involved in the production of the book, the lessons and everyone at Masjid al Awwal. Ameen
This is an amazing work to help understand the blessed month of Ramadan ...

I highly recommend this book. I’ve learned so much from taking the classes online and look forward to it everyday. My favourite has been the Arabic language benefits and the vocabulary of the verses.
