Why is it important to do the Kuttab homework?

God سبحانه وتعالى says: واللهُ أخرَجَكُم من بُطُونِ أُمَّهاتِكُم لا تَعلمونَ شيئًا, which means: “God brought you out the wombs of your mothers not knowing a thing.”

And God سبحانه وتعالى also says: كُونُوا ربَّانِيِّين - this verse was interpreted that God orders us to teach people by laying down the basic foundations first, then building on that with more complex knowledge.

Therefore it is essential for children to master the basic language and pronunciation skills as they embark on their long learning journey. The key to this is repetition, repetition and repetition! This is why it is essential to strengthen the skills learned in the class by doing the homework.
