PREFACE
This book in your hand is prepared by my friend, Hafiz Sohail from Chicago. I know Hafiz Sohail for the past three years. We have spent some days together in the past two Ramadhaans at Darul Huda, Springfield, Virginia, USA after he would complete his Taraweeh in Chicago.
Alhamdulillah, Hafiz Sohail possesses many outstanding qualities. He is a very good Hafiz with extremely sweet recitation. Hafiz Sohail is an IT Specialist and is doing his Aalim course in his spare time. He is very humble and soft by nature and threads the path of Taqwa to the best of his ability.
This book is an expression of some of his abovementioned qualities. Hafiz Sohail presents ten chapters with thirty points dealing with many issues of memorising the Qur'aan, virtues of a Hafiz, obstacles in becoming a Hafiz, respect to teachers, parent's responsibilities, du'aas for hifz, etc.
I have read the book and it touched my heart. It is my fervent du'aa that Allah accepts the efforts of Hafiz Sohail and I take a good omen on his name (Sohail - easy) that the contents of this book will encourage people to become Huffaaz and assist those who are becoming Huffaaz. This book is a must for every household, parents and Huffaaz. I name this book, 'Securing the Remembrance'.

Is there any reward for good other than good?
[ar-Rahman: 60] O Allah, Lord of Jibril, Mika'il and Israfil, Creator of the heavens and the earth, Knower of the unseen and the seen, You will judge between Your servants concerning that wherein they differ. Guide me with regard to that wherein there is dispute concerning the truth by Your leave, for You guide whomsoever You will to the straight path.
Oh Allah, I seek refuge in You lest I misguide others, or I am misguided by others, lest I cause others to err or I am caused to err, lest I abuse others or be abused, and lest I behave foolishly or meet with the foolishness of others.
