You should all be able to answer: ما اسمُكَ / ما اسمُكِ ؟ We now need you to come up with a kunya for yourself so you can answer: ما كُنْيَتُكَ / ما كُنْيَتُكِ ؟ What is a كُنْيَةٌ? A Kunyah is a nick-name usually based on the name of one's eldest child. In the case of men, it starts with: أبُو Abu....(father of....) And in the case of women, it starts with: ّأم Umm....(mother of...) For example, the Prophet's kunyah was Abu Al-Qāsim ﷺ, and Ā'ishah's Kunyah was Umm Abdillāh -raḍhiyallāhu 'anhā- What if I don't have any kids? What if I'm not even married? ▪️https://t.me/madrasatuna/333 ▪️https://t.me/madrasatuna/1955 HOMEWORK: You need to choose a kunyah for yourself by next lesson.
