The students had another beneficial and interesting class today. Due to Imam Ilyas’ prior commitments, we asked Ustadh Aziz Baameur to assist us for another review class held in the home of Karen and Bakri Musa.
Ustadh Aziz added some variety to today’s class by including a short writing test of selected Arabic letters. He also recited 2 poems for us to familiarize with the Arabic text and diacritical marks.
We also reviewed part of the homework that Imam Ilyas prescribed for us. Speaking about prescriptions, the class was punctuated with Dr. Bakri rushing to the hospital to perform an emergency operation. Another life saved! Alhamdulillah!
The Musas served delicious homemade raisin bread, tea and coffee. The Baameurs brought a tasty selection of bagels and jams. Azlan Musa graciously built a nice fire to keep us warm.
The class ended with a healthy nature walk to the waterfall and creek on the Musas property.
Insha’Allah, next week we will be meeting at the Baameurs home at 9:30am on Sunday, December 3.

The SVIC Adult Quran class met last Sunday at the home of the Musas. Even though we missed our dear teacher who was out of town for a religious conference (2nd Annual Tarbiyyah Conference), we had an excellent substitute teacher. Brother Aziz Baameur was so gracious to assist us with our pronounciation.
Homemade bagels from Brother Aziz and Sister Kathy was served. Fresh coffee and a selection of teas was also served by our generous hosts Dr. Bakri and Sister Karen.
Insha’Allah, we plan to rotate the class at different homes of the students. Last week we had 2 new students who joined. Sister Reem comes all the way from Monterey.
We all look forward to Shaykh Ilyas’ return and we hope Ustadh Aziz will continue to assist us.
