Description
For a learner there is no bigger dream than to read the Quran in the language that Allah used when he revealed it. This means hearing and speaking the words that Allah chose without needing a translation or someone to explain it. Many Muslims who did not grow up speaking Arabic really want to do this. But for a lot of people it is not clear how to start reading the Quran it can be scary. It seems too hard.
The Guide to Reading Quran from Manarah Publishings Quran Learning Series is here to change that. This book is an complete guide that teaches non-Arabic speakers how to read the Quran. It is for people who're thirteen years old and up. The book helps people start reading the Quran with confidence and understanding.
What makes this guide special is that it is made for people who are starting to learn as teenagers or adults. It does not treat the learner like a child.

The Guide is divided into parts.
* Phase 1 is about the Alphabet. It teaches all the letters and how to say them correctly. It also explains the sounds that're not in English and the common mistakes that adult learners make.
* Phase 2 is about how letters change shape when they're in a word. It teaches how to read each letter in positions with pictures to compare and exercises to practice.
* Phase 3 is about the Harakat, which's the system of short vowels in Arabic. It teaches how each vowel affects the way we say the words and how they work together with the letters. This is a step to reading the Quran correctly.
* Phase 4 is about reading words and phrases. It helps the learner move from reading letters to reading whole words and short phrases from the Quran. It does this slowly the learner can get better at reading.
* Phase 5 is about using what we have learned to read the Quran. It introduces concepts of Tajweed, which is the rules for reading the Quran correctly. The learner practices with text from the Quran so they can connect what they have learned to the Quran they want to read.
