Beginners Arabic Lesson 29: Lifelong Arabic learning. A conversation with my mum Dr Rokkiah Tawi

from Arabic with Imran Lum · host Dr Imran Lum

Would love to hear your thoughts on the podcast, send us a message!This has got to be one of my favourite episodes, because I got to chat with my beautiful mum Dr Rokkiah Tawi about her lifelong passion for learning Arabic. Like a true Asian mum, she forced me to learn Arabic, until I loved it. In this episode, we’ll hear about how as a little kid, she used to defy ‘shoot to kill’ curfew orders during the Malaysian communist insurgency to learn the Quran; to how she uses simplified Arabic grammar to memorise a third of the Quran at the young age of 76. I hope you enjoy it!#arabic #arabiclearning #Quran Support the showFor our free 6-Part series on basic Arabic to get you started, sign up to our E-mail list ⁠HERE⁠!Support the show HERE! Follow us on Instagram: arabicwithimranlum and check out my other podcast Muslim Money.#arabic #learnarabic
