Default LI's Online Qur'an Memorization Initiative - 06-29-2009




“The people of Qur’an, they are the people of Allaah and His specialties.”
[Ahmad, Nisaa’ee, Ibn Maajah]


If LI were to launch a group Qur'an memorization project where forum members would be able to memorize the Qur'an with each other - would YOU take part?


-Quick outline-


**Overseen and moderated by the Huffadh on the forum

- Planned in 3 groups -
* Level 1 - Juz 'Amma;
* Level 2 - Juz Tabarak;
* Level 3 - Surah chosen by participants in this level.**

More Details to come insha'Allaah...
For now - please answer the poll and if you have any ideas etc - let us know!



Indeed, Allaah will honor people (i.e., in this world and the Hereafter) by this Book, and He will debase others by it.
[Muslim]

Don't YOU want to be of those whom Allaah will honor by the Qur'an?

Indeed, Allah knows whatever thing they call upon other than Him. And He is the Exalted in Might, the Wise. And these examples We present to the people, but none will understand them except those of knowledge.

good idea, but i think it should be segregated? and also, how do we know if one another has memorized? recordings? or like a "home work sheet" system?

A homework sheet is a good idea. Everyone can keep log on their own.

And I think it's self paced program, or a little each day... I think he's asking for ideas and suggestions right now. It's a good project though!

So many people want to take part, but I really don't think this is going to work. To memorise the Qur'an, one needs to have a proper teacher there, who can teach his the pronounciation of the arabic lettering correctly. Also, everyone has different things to do at different times, and their memorising speed may be different to others. Some peoples' mind-state might go into depression halfway through (its possible, believe me).


Personally, with regards to memorising the Qur'an, I have learnt that you should set yourself a goal, and you yourself have to motivate yourself to reach and acheive that goal. You know yourself better, and I think its better if we look at things realistically, rather than agreeing with it, and then the whole thing falling apart in a couple of weeks.


Allahu Aalim, this might work, but personally I don't think it will, as everyone has their own speed and time and memorization time period.


I'm not saying that I won't memorise it, I'm saying I won't take part memorising it with the forum.


Therefore I have voted: No, (why not?) and explained my reason above.

That may be a point the organizers need to look at....some people have work or are busy with stuff and some times are normal for others and to early for others...but then again they are still planning/thinking it out,right?

Mashaa'Allaah it's a good idea. There is alot of thinking to be done though. Who will run it? Those who do run it, what do they need to know, be haafidh(a)? Know ahkaam tajweed? How will things be monitered? How many people per teacher to monitor? How often do you have a class meeting? and so forth...It is best to cover all angles before a launch.

As TIA mentioned, you really do need a teacher. Perhaps it would be good to start off with something like Makhaarij and Sifaat of huruf then go with hifdh. It'll be hard to do hifdh if you don't atleast know that much. Unless you're good at imitating. Most children don't study ahkaam tajweed yet are very good Mashaa'Allaah and it is because they would imitate the recitor or their teacher.

Inshaa'Allaah it goes well!

Yes to add on to the Sisters post: We should have a signip sheet that states a minimum time you have to stay. We could have different teachers at different times like UK members- one teacher,USA & Canada members-one teacher,Other countries-one teacher and so forth. We need a lot more participation from members and should have at least 10-25 comments/suggestions on this idea.

It will work - insha'Allaah - because it has worked elsewhere (check AlMaghrib forums to get an idea). Success is from Allaah, for us is to work.

In regards to a teacher, participants can, once completed go and recite to a local imaam. During, we are still working on ways memorization can be checked.

As per people's personal lives getting in the way, that's valid too. However, I'm sure people who commit to this because they want to can take out 30 minutes a day to memorize 2-3 ayaat.

The point of this isn't to make anyone a hafidh or get them to do full-time hifdh memorizing one or 2 pages a day - the mindset, medium for that isn't a forum. Rather, this is aimed primarily for those that cannot do full time hifdh but still want to have a relationship with the Quran, who want to recite something new in Salah besides the same few surahs they've been reciting all their years, etc - but can only take the time out to memorize a couple of ayat per day.

A lot of us spend a lot of time here engaging in discussions, surfing the internet etc, if just 30 minutes of that time were taken and invested in this, the potential for success is very high, bi'idhnillah.

Details will come insha'Allaah. We're still in the planning stage and just want to get an idea of how many people will take part and get any ideas/etc that we may have not thought of.

You have a very valid point on being able to recite satisfactory. We will address it, Insha'Allaah. Again, this isn't aimed at turning the participants into Huffadh. It's to help them form and keep a relationship with the Qur'an.

AsSalamOAlaikum WaRehmatuAllah WaBarkatuhu

SubhaanAllah!!! Ive only read
the opening post, and i am simply in.

I dont know if or how it would work. I dont if it would succeed or fail....

All i know is that i have the motivation to learn. And i am learning 2-3 ayaats a day currently, so inshaAllah it can only benefit me.

Everyone should join in. Brothers and sisters show your support. It is only for your benefit. It is something that you can take to your grave. InshaAllah...

FiAmaaniAllah

Mashaa'Allaah, you (and those organising it) seem to have things under control, Inshaa'Allaah it will work!

How about a muraja'ah level? Hifdh is sa7lan in comparison to revision, anyone memorising or has memorised can vouch for that I think lol.

Fail? Astaghfirullah! There is no fail in this. Masha'Allah, it's an honor for LI to have such programs, even if only one person joins.

Though, there are a few questions I have:
- Would it be a group pace or self paced? Would anyone be able to join anytime? I suppose you're just starting, and evaluating the participation rates. Though, I look forward to the program, Insha'Allah!
