Day 20

As salaamu Alaikum

May Allah bless all you. Ameen

Well this is our 20th day here in Egypt, (Alexandria). Al hamdulillah everything is going well. The only thing is that it is taking some time to get internet in he home. They dont move as fast as US like comcast or Quest or At &t. Maybe we are just spoiled. Also we are spoiled with some things being right at our finger tips. So the lesson in this is SABR. A brother told me today that Egypt or MSR M=Mushkila(problem) S=Sabr(patience) R=Rahma OAllah have Mercy on us.

As far as studies. Alhamdulillah Arabic course has begun. I missed the first week because I was still in USA but they gave us a test and I started level 1 within three days. Maasha Allah the teacher seems to be great better acoording to my class mates. Because the previos teacher left for different fjob in Saudi arabia. So I was righton time. I did well on the mid test and the Final is next Thursday. Insha Allah I will do well. Also started with Quran. I am starting from the beginning in agroup class but I think i may change to private so that I can better utilise my time here. Dividing an hour for Quran is ..... Anyway the Quran teacher is also good. Alhamdulillah I found out that his chain goes 31 back to the Prophet (pbuh). That is good. actually his teacher is 32 and he recited to 31 Umm saad who was a teacher to thousands. May Allah have mercy on her. and all of us. Ameen. HE is good and correcting my mistakes. May Allah forgive me for whatever mistakes I made to others. Also he recommended that if you want to learn correct tajweed, listen o Khaleel al hosary. All the other qaris are good mishary, shuraim etc. but to learn correct pronunciation it is good to have Husary. Any way ayuub started school this week for arabic so hopefully he will be speaking soon.

Im out for now. May Allah bless you Ameen. and hope to hear from you
