If you study all the words, you won't need to rely on the bonus insha Allah :)

For over 9 months now (eek!), the Madinans have been learning Qur'anic words which have a high frequency of occurrance in the Qur'an.  Every 3 months or so, we try to have a quiz just to get everyone motivated to learn the words.

So far, we've had 2 quizzes.  

The 3rd one will be on April 14th, insha Allah - next Saturday!

Many of the words are very easy, words that you may know already (like Ajr, Allah, Jahannam, Jannah) but there are many that are not commonly known (ex. Junaah, Ibtighaa, Aakhareena vs. Aakhireena).  

The words that the upcoming quiz will cover are all listed, with their meanings, in this thread: [url=http://www.jannah.org/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.pl/YaBB.pl?board=masjid&action=display&num=2494]click here[/url].

Give it a shot!  It's definitely worth it (read the post above for more details about the time of the quiz and other info).  I wish you all the best :)

Wassalamu alaikum.

So?? My advice is cram!! Who knows, maybe these Quran words/verses will come in handy during your interview :-)

Although I have not participated in the past, due to someone *cough* lion *cough* making a comment about the inelegibility of native arabic speakers [:-)], I will join in this time in the spirit of participation, insha'Allah, at the risk public embaressment -my memorization abilities are not that good, neither is my vocabulary!

Wassalam

Hmmm, I doubt it. He must be tied up somewhere.

Or maybe he is following the old time system, the standard time ?

Anyway, go take the quiz in the Taqwa Masjid!

I personally think it's too easy.  You may differ :)

Assalaamu alaikum,

It is kinda harder than the quiz by se7en. Someone who has studied the words should have few problems though. But again the bonus will kill!! Man, there are so many things I don't know off head and I have to look them up :(

Anyway, good quiz Arsalan. Jazak Allahu khairan.

Wasalaam.
