Remembering

You know, there are some things that kids can do better than grown-ups,

and that little kids can do better than big kids,

and one of those things is learning stuff by heart.

That is why the best time to learn the words of the Qur'an is when you are young.

And because it is easier to learn things when you are young,

that is why it is better for kids go to school instead of working.

That way they can do what they do best,

and then when they are older they already know the things that they most need

and want to remember.

The trouble is that kids don't usually know what they will need

and want to remember when they are older.

They often think that what is interesting to kids is the most important thing and always will be.

And they often feel that the things grown-ups think are important are a waste of time.

But muslims all around the world have always known

that the most important things that a kid can learn

are the words that were spoken by Muhammad the Messenger.

Here are some Arabic words that every Muslim should know.

See if you can read them and remember them.

These words are so important that you will find them in all sorts of different places in Izwayz.

Words that make us muslim.

Words for beginning things

Words used in daily prayers

Words of one of the most important chapters of the Qur'an.
