Memorizing and Preserving (الحِفْظُ وَالمُحَافَظَةُ)

Level: Beginner · Arabic root: ح ف ظ

Students read six core words, read short texts, answer questions, copy sentences, and write full sentences from dictation.

Key vocabulary:

• حِفْظٌ — memorization and preservation
• حَافِظٌ — a male memorizer or guardian
• حَافِظَةٌ — a female memorizer or guardian
• مَحْفُوظٌ — memorized or preserved
• القُرْآنُ — the Quran
• دَفْتَرٌ — a notebook

Your child practises: reading fully vowelled Arabic words (with tashkeel); breaking words into syllables; reading complete sentences and a short story; verb conjugation; comprehension questions and practice games; dictation and handwriting copywork; meeting the root in a Qur'an verse — with the teacher's own recorded voice on every word.
