It is agreed that a new Muslims has to read the Qur’an and start praying. But now? How or where to start, since most of the converts do not speak Arabic? In this short message, Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan explains how new Muslim can take these few steps to begin.
Take baby steps
His general message is: Take baby steps! Don’t push yourself or stress yourself over what you don’t know or master yet. Indeed, your relationship with the Qur’an is about quality not quantity.
- Reading the Qur’an: Reading it in your own language is totally fine to start understanding the meaning of its verses. Furthermore, it can give you a spiritual boost.
- The need to pray: Praying in Arabic takes time, and you can use a cheat sheet placed in front of you with the transliteration for the pronunciation until you can memorise it.
- Remember, practise makes perfect; With time, it will become easier.
But Why Do Muslims Insist On Praying in Arabic?
- It is the language of revelation. Hence, we consider the language of the Qur’an sacred, as these are the words of Allah, our creator.
- Moreover, it is said that even for one letter you are trying to learn or pronounce, you will be rewarded.
- The Arabic language is a very rich language.
- Finally, your goal is to maintain a healthy and growing relationship with the Qur’an.
