Memorizing Holy Quran

[muslimmember]

:sl:

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

I am in the process of memorizing the Quran on my own at home- one surah at a time and also simultaneously Surah Baqarah 2- 3 ayah at a time. Alhamdulillah it is going well until I reached Surah Jinn. I have memorized first 8 ayahs but just feeling very anxious, week and unfocused. I got into a car accident as someone hit my car yesterday, and maybe that is why I am feeling strange and has nothing to do with memorization. I guess after the accident I was wondering did I do something wrong in my memorization? Is there a proper way that I don't know about? I have been just simply reading Quran then Tafsir/Translation and memorizing. Is there some better more suitable way to memorize Quran? If so, kindly please advise.

JazakAllah.

sis , sorry to know u had an accident .

InshaAllah u will get soon well and memorizing Quran will be easy for u .

Sorry to hear abouat your accident...did you go to the Hospital? Feeling weak, unfocused, dizzy, disoriented, headache, can be signs of a concussion. If you didn't get checked out, I suggest going to get a check done. Best to be safe.

As for memorizing the Qur'an, one thing you could try, is write it out. For me, I have found i remember more when I write it out (by hand, not typing at keyboard), taking my time than I do just be reading over and over.

Quran Memorization Tip 1: Wake Up Early



He woke up earlier than most people. In fact, he woke up on time to get to the Mosque to pray Fajr every day. When he got home from the mosque, instead of busying himself with the internet or watching television, he spent the first few minutes of each day memorising the Quran.




Quran Memorization Tip 2: Each Day Memorise Less Than You Think You Can



Ahmed made a firm commitment to memorise the Quran, but instead of rushing in and trying to memorise one or two pages each day (like his friends who gave up before long), he confined himself to learning 5 lines per day.
This worked out to be about 20-30 minutes per day for him.



Quran Memorization Tip 3: Get Familiar First



In order to overcome the initial unfamiliarity with the new verses, he spent the first few minutes each day actually writing out the 5 lines of that day onto a small sheet of paper.
He spent the next few minutes reciting them over and over, and then attempted to memorise them.



Quran Memorization Tip 4: Keep Today’s Verses Close At Hand



As Ahmed went about his day, he often found that he had a few chunks of time – several minutes each. During these times, such as waiting for the bus, or waiting for a teacher to turn up to a class, Ahmed would try to remember the 5 lines from that morning.
To aid his memory, he kept the sheet that he wrote out that morning folded in his pocket, and would pull it out if he was struggling.




Quran Memorization Tip 5: Use What You Memorise In Every Single Salah




To further support his memory, every prayer he prayed that day, he would recite the same 5 verses of Quran that he learned that morning. In each aka’, he would alternate between the 5 lines from that day, and the 5-10 lines he learned the previous days. And remember…



Quran Memorization Tip 6: Keep Track Of Your Goal




With the Uthmani script of the Quran, there are exactly 15 lines per page. So, by the end of the week, Ahmed had not only memorised 2 whole pages of the Quran, but he had written them out in full, too… a very blessed act if ever there was one.




Quran Memorization Tip 7: Perfect Your Tajweed As You Go
On the weekend, Ahmed would visit a local scholar of Quran recitation, and would revise with him the 2 pages he had just memorised, and have a go at the 2 pages he would be working on the following week. This way, he was certain to learn the Quran with accurate tajweed and beautiful recitation.
There was one other secret to Ahmed’s success.
The Spiritual Secrets Of Successful Memorisation…



Once a week, on a weekend evening (usually on a Friday night), Ahmed would wake up in the middle of the night, and pray Tahajjud. During his special Tahajjud prayer, Ahmed would recite the whole two pages he had learned that week, and consolidate them.
At this point, the Shaykh mentioned that perhaps one of the reasons so few people manage to wake up and do this special prayer, which is highly recommended by the Quran and by our beloved Prophet (saw), is that we don’t have anything to recite.
We have so little Quran memorised that there’s no fun or enjoyment in the challenge of waking up for Tahajjud, and we often find even the fard prayers a ’chore’ instead of a pleasure.



The Results…
You can imagine Ahmed’s excitement and feeling of achievement and success 3 months after he started, when he had memorised the entire 1st Juz!
It’s not just the feeling of success and empowerment that the Quran gave him, but also the deep connection with Allah (SWT) he felt every single day.
You can only imagine how proud he must have felt of himself, when upon graduation Ahmed not only received a 1st class degree in engineering (he was 3rd in his class), but he had also officially memorised the entire Quran. He was a hafidh.



Shaykh Zakariya pointed out a final lesson from this blessed brother.
The biggest achievement he made was not to memorise the Quran. The biggest achievement he made was to be deeply connected with the Quran every single day for 5 years.


That connection with Allah (SWT) is what made Ahmed so special. That deep link with the Creator is what keeps life in perspective and is what helped Ahmed to keep on track with the little weekly targets he set for himself.


One can only imagine what happened to Ahmed’s levels of personal fulfilment, Iman and taqwa, as he went back every single day to develop this ritual of ihsan (spiritual excellence). Each day he woke up for Fajr and wrote out another 5 lines of Quran, his self-esteem and self-confidence soared…


“Can the reward for excellence be anything other than excellence?” Surah Rahman (55: 60)

The Easiest Way to Memorize the Noble Quran"Similarly, utilize this method for every page of the Qur’an, however do not exceed eight verses in a day (or one page) so that the portion memorized will not increasewhich may result in a weakening of the memorization of said portion..."
The Methodology & Supplication for Memorizing the Qur’an
By: Shaikh Muhammad Bin Saalih Al ‘Uthaimeen (may Allah have mercy upon him)

"the way in which an individual will memorize the Qur’an is by being consistent (upon memorizing it).

People (generally) have two ways of going about memorizing (the Qur’an).
The First: is to memorize verse by verse, or two or three verses at a time, depending on the length of the verses.
The Second: is to memorize page by page

... Furthermore, it is incumbent whether, (one memorizes) by the first or second method, that they do not proceed (to the next verse or page) until they have excellently memorized (that verse or page that they are currently on)..."

JazakAllah! I am feeling better today Alhamdulillah and am now pretty sure it was the accident that had me nervous and weak yesterday. The ideas put forth in your responses are great and I will be trying those suggestions. Thank you for your kind words.

Best Regards and may Allah bless you.

I hope you are fine sister,may Allaah grant you a long and healthy life,ameen.

I myself, am also in the process of memorizing the Qur'aan, I do follow some of the tips, some days I don't feel motivated enough to put in that extra effort because of school, and other extra curricular activities. However I keep in mind to why I'm memorizing it and it helps me quite abit. May Allaah make it easy on the brothers and sisters like us who are aiming to be Hafidhs,ameen.

[IslamBox]

Oh that a bad news. But in my opinion, you did nothing wrong. Don't compare your accident on the basis of memorizing. Allah is not so hard to punish you for some mistakes. HE is very kind. Its just a Shaitan who wants you to be away from Quran. Don't get week and just carry on your previous routine. InshAllah you will feel better :)

[ayesha.ansari]

Memorization of the Holy Quran is honorable for an individual. And it is also rewarded with the blessings of Allah Almighty. A Muslim should recite the Holy Quran with translation on daily basis because it guides to the people of the world towards the right path which may lead towards the Janna.

[muslimmember]

JazakAllah. Your responses are very encouraging. May Allah grant us all the gift of knowlege.
