Which mushaf do you use?

[afriend]

Just wondering which would be the best one for hifz and reading in general...

At the moment, the South African print seems to be working best for me.....

[afriend]

Mushaf is basically the Quraan........not sure about literal meaning, but it's refering to the Quraan....

I'm tryin to see what type of Quraan it is (the font of that specific Quraan).

e.g. South African print-letters quite large and spaced out, hence more pages.

Saudi Arabian print-letters small and closer together, therefore less pages :)

[Pk_#2]

small and close togeva one...buh not too small :)

[Umar001]

Mushaf is like scripture or something.

Anyhow, erm I dont read arabic but i tend to like the bigger ones cos I struggle less in readin the letters

The different mus-hafs have different advantages.

The saudi one which is most widespread, has "colours" in it the green pages etc. This will help you to remember the actually page, as colour is more easy to rememeber (it sticks in your mind) and each page is 15 lines of Quran whereas compared to the South African which is only 13 lines per page. So if both students using the different mus-hafs learnt a page a day. The one using the Saudi version would slowly but surely finish before the other student.

However the South African one is written with more pauses etc so it helps the Student to know where to stop etc. It was written mainly for muslims who dont have arabic as their native tounge. Also the mark of the Ayah is very small, this takes the focuse of long Ayahs, if you take for an example the longest Ayah in the Quran (Surah Baqrah Ayah 282). In the Saudi mus-haf it looks very "scary" (a whole page!) but in the South African one you hardely notice it.

Oh and the Saudi mushaf has a rule of thumb, every page finishes with an ayah, it never over flows, which the South African one does.

In the beginning I used the Saudi one, but then Switched to the South African. Both are equally good, however if its for Hifz I would personally recommand the South African one. Allah Knows best.

woah JazakAllah khair akhi :thumbs_up

I use the Madinah Mushaf. I used to use the 13 liner and it was good but it isnt in my opinion good for a hifz student memorizing a set amount each day. Since the pages dont end with an ayat its harder to have a the same amount of Quran per day. Whereas in the Madani Mushaf there can be a consistency in the memorization as brother Khaldun said,

The one using the Saudi version would slowly but surely finish before the other student.

Thats because if he does a page a day without ever leaving it, he'll finish in around 600 days.

I prefer the madani mushaf over the others. Though ive seen a 17-liner mushaf designed specifically for hifz...

[Ibn Abi Ahmed]

You mean memorise a page per day? and not forget it either?

:sl:

Yes. It is tough to do at the start and i had alot of trouble getting my quran memorization consistent. But Alhamdullilah brother Khaldun gave me excellent advice and now I am able to do a page per day.

What you should do is start off increasing your memorizing capabilites slowly and when you reach the stage where your comfortable doing a page per day(it should take about say 2-3 weeks to get used to a page) you should stick to a page unless your doing full time where you can increase it if you want. Then it will become a norm and seem easy. But remember dont memorize too much in a day because most likely you will forget it. But whatever you do, memorize the same amount each day. This is the reason why i cant use 13 liner, i cant keep myself consistent, and if you do a few verses it feels like youve done aloot because a few verses will span over a few pages.

Sister Al-Muminah. The kitaab your posted is abit different from the standard south african tho, as it has 16 lines per page. The normal standard is 13.

[Selising]

I use the one that we call Rasm Uthmani. The one that Sister Mukminah use, we used to use it. Nowadays not many people prefer it. Hard to read. The rasm Uthmani, the character is nicer, easier to read for a non-arabic people like me. I write faster in roman character compared to arabic character. just do not know how to spell things. My handwriting, astaghfirullah, embarassing

I have a dilemma, I tried memorzing. I think it is rather challenging when one doesnt understand the meaning of the words (when one knows arabic) it is easier to memorize where as someone who doesnt speak arabic at all?

what is the benefit of memorizing the Quran when one needs to look up the tafsir of the ayah?

[ps. it isnt a comment. it is a serious quesiton]

fee amanillah.

[afriend]

Even if an arab who knows the arabic language in and out, will always have to look at the tafseer, as there are certain ayaat which require some explanation.

If you wish me to ellaborate further plese do request.

I also think to memorize the Quraan, it is essential to learn the arabic language :)

That is only natural, but when you put them into the right context, whichever makes sense will fit into it.

So say live and live.

If we use live in the context of:

Reporting live from Mars

It means something different than:

I want to live.

I will continue if you desire.

and you are certainly right. However, what I mean is for an non-arab what is the benefit when they recite the Qur'an without understanding the meaning?

hmmmmmmm, ie for example: Surah Al Imran Allah subha' wa tallah mentions in ayah 26-27 which means "He is who brings death to live" etc..
If a non muslim doesnt know what does the word, "hayy" means, how is one suppose to benefit from it?

Again as a born muslim, I see the memorization of the Quran done heavily in my community. (I am not questioning ppl's intention behind it, rather i am trying to seek the wisdom behind such acts.)

please present ur case

and Allahu alim.

[afriend]

Na'am.

I understand your point, but the sheer virtues for memorising the Quraan is to die for.

I myself am learning the Quraan by heart, at the same time I am learning the arabic language, as translation Quraans are not as satisfying as reading translations.

I also recomend any youth who has the chance to do so, thereafter learn the meanings, along with the arbic language.

I hope that answers your query. I will kindly ellaborate further.

[shudnt_have]

Asalaamu alikum akhi,
I posted a response last night, Unfortunately it was not poster for some odd reason perhaps my internet connection was discontinued. Yes, Allah tallah reward you for that, it does clear the ambiguity to an extend.
well it does answer my q, now my next question is how are you learnig the tafsir of the ayahs? with a teacher? or self study (if you dont mind me asking)
and please share some tips.
subha'Allah when i tried memorizing some of surah yasin, it took me forever to understand eachand every word of that surah in my mother tongue. (it was self study which shamelessly took weeks)

i am learning arabic with a teacher finshed my level one. however what i found most beneficial is the fact if i memorize list of arabic vocab that appear most often in the Quran.

What are some others ways we can help establish our understanding of the Quran? plz contribute to that question if you can.

Ibn Mas’ood said, “I feel that indeed someone will forget knowledge they had a acquired because of sins they commit.”

Allah ta’ala teaches us in the Qur’an: "[Be conscious of Allah and Allah will teach you.] This knowledge is from Allah ta’ala, a gift. It makes no sense that someone spends their nights disobeying the gift-giver while awaiting His gifts in the morning".

One of the key: if you want your children to be effective in their Deen and their memorization of Qur’an, YOU have to be the one that you want your children to become. Do not let them see a contradiction.

The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, “The heart that has no Qur’an in it is like an abandoned ruined dwelling.” [At-Tirmidhi].

Sister, can you define the types? I never knew of this intelligence.

just remembered this now :hiding:

I think this post has explained it really well mashaAllah:

Assalamu Alykum wa rahmatullahi wa baraktuhu,

Here is some useful information which I wanted to share.

THE AHRUF
First there is the issue nof Ahruf (dialects/modes). The Qur'an was revealed in seven ahruf, as is proved in many mutawaatir ahadith. This was because different tribes pronounced and spelled words differently. The forms matched the dialects of following seven tribes:
1.Quraysh
2.Hudhayl
3.Thaqîf
4.Hawâzin
5.Kinânah
6.Tamîm
7.Yemen

The revelation of the Qur'an in seven different ahruf made its recitation and memorization much easier for the various tribes. At the same time the Qur'an challenged them to produce a surah like it in their own dialect so that they would not complain about the incomprehensibility.

Regarding whether or not these ahruf have been preserved, there are three opinions, the strongest being that of Ibn Taymiyyah, Ash-Shatibee, Ar-Raazi, Ibn Katheer and Ibn Al-Jazaree and many others. They say that when Uthman rd was compiling the Qur'an, he had Zaib ibn Thabit record it without the vowelation and consonants to accomodate the different Ahruf. At some points where the ahruf differed greatly, they recorded it according to the Quraysh dialect. There are 4 benefits which show the Wisdom of Allah revealing the Qur'an in seven ahruf:

1. To facilitate the memorization of the Qur'an. The arabs did not all speak arabic in the same way. The ahruf eased the memorization and was significant in the preservation of the Qur'an.

2. To prove the miraculous nature of the Qur'an. For despite all the differences, the meaning of the Ahruf did not contradict one another, but rather were complimentary.

3. To prove the truthfulness of the Prophet Muhammad saws, for despite the fact that he was illiterate, the revelation of the Qur'an occured in different tribal dialects and different words, all of which consisted of the most fluent and eloquent speech of his time.

4. To honour the ummah of the Prophet Muhammad saws and show its superiority over all other nations.

THE QIRA'AT
Qira'at refers to the various manners of reciting the Qur'an. Each qiraa'a has its OWN rules of tajweed. In Murattal, it is not necessary to emphasize every vowel in clarity as it is in Mujawwad. Each qira'at is named after the Qari who was famous in reciting in that manner.
There are many different Qira'at, but Ibn Mujahid wrote a book on the seven most prominent. He did this on purpose to match the seven ahruf, but some people don't know that there are more than 7 qira'at. In fact, there are ten authentic Qira'at. For a qira'at to be authentic there are very detailed rules which we could discuss later if any wishes.
Here are the ten Qira'at with their famous Qaris:

1. Naafi' Al-Madanee. (Madinah)
Imam Malik recited in this manner. Imam Ahmad ibn Hanbal often recited in this manner.
The 2 Qaris who preserved this recitation are Qaloon and Warsh.

2. Ibn Katheer al-Makee. (Makkah)
Imam Shafi recited in this manner.
The 2 Qaris who preserved this recitation are Al-Buzzee and Qumbul.

3.Abu Amr al-Basri (Basra)
The 2 Qaris who preserved this recitation are Ad-Doori and As-Soosee.

4. Ibn Aamir ash-Shami (Syria)
The 2 Qaris who preserved this recitation are Hishaam and Ibn Thakwan.

5. Asim al-Kufi (Koofah)
Imaam Abu Hanifa recited in this manner. Imam Ahmad ibn Hanbal often recited in this manner.
The 2 Qaris who prserved this recitation are Shuba and Hafs

6. Hamzah Al-Kufi (Koofah)
The 2 Qaris who preserved this recitation are Khalaf (who also has his own Qira'at #10) and Khallaad.

7. Al-Kisaa'ee
The 2 Qaris who preserved this recitation are Al-Layth and ad-Doori (same one as before).

8. Abu Ja'far Al-Madanee (Madinah)
The two Qaris who preserved this recitation are Isa and Sulayman.

9. Yaqub ibn Al-Basri (Basra)
Imam Bukhari recited in this manner.
The 2 Qaris who preserved this recitation are Ruways and Rooh.

10. Khalaf (same one who preserved Hamzah's recitation, but this is his own method of reciation)
The 2 Qaris who preserved this reciation are Ishaq and Idris.

Today 95% of the world recites Hafs an Asim, 3% Warsh an Naafi, .7% Qaloon an-Naafi, .3% Ad-Doori an Abu Amr and 1% Ibn 'Aamir.

Please let me know if anyone found this informative.

turkish mushaf :D

[Re.TiReD]

:salamext:

I use the mushaf with small text, personally I think the small text is better for the individuals who can recite fluent arabic and can do so continuously, without pauses (aside from the original pauses of the Qur'aan of course).

The larger font would be beneficial to those just beggining to master the art of reading the arabic language, as the places where the letters join and the letters themselves are more prominent; hence decreasing the liklihood of mistakes being made.

[BlackMamba]

IbnRuwahah, you want to do Hifz mashaallah thats good. I use the Pakistani Mushaf. Its good for me with Hifz Alhamdulillah Allah has let me learn big portion of Quran with that mushaf. Hopefully I can finish it soon, inshaAllah. But a quran is a quran. InshaAllah you will be able to memorize with any quran.

[qrays]

The best mushaf to memorize is Mushaf at-Tajweed color-coded.

Here how it looks:

You can download a pdf scanned version of the same mushaf. However, having a hard copy is always better, for the publisher and also for reading/memorizing purpose. You can buy it from: here, or here, or here.

Mushaf of Madina, is also Uthmani script, most of the Turkish mushafs are also Uthmani's script.
For Mushaf al-Madina you can download a pdf from here.

There is yet another very famous mushaf with Husrev's caligraphy. You can read it from here. Here how it looks, colors show the coincidence of similar words:

To sum up:
Mushaf at-Tajweed
Mushaf al-Madina
Mushaf al-Husrev


If you live in US, and interested in hard-copy of Mushaf al-Husrev, let me know.

South African. That's how my mum taught me to read Qur'an as a small child. But I can read both.

[Banu_Hashim]

Maybe someone can post some pics of each, so we're clear on what we mean by "South African" and "Saudi"

[Beardo]

South African/Desi Prints. The Saudi LINED prints aren't bad either, though. But the ones that don't have lines are not recommended for memorization.

i went through quite a few quraans in my days. I think I used the color coded quraans for the vast majority of my hifdh. Not that I needed it, but I got used to the coloring... and actually liked them. Though, my teachers never did. They said the coloring + my speed of recitation gave them dizzy. :-[

Ah well.

I later gave in.. (lol, only for the last few months of my stay in madressah). And I got that authentic South African print. I use it regularly now. :exhausted Thanks to my teachers.

[Banu_Hashim]

("South African")

("Saudi")

I learnt to read on the first type. But for tajweed, I find the second one more useful.

[- IqRa -]

Could you please label which one is which so people know.

[ardianto]

I don't know what's the thread starter means with South African print or Saudi print. Printed in South Africa or Saudi ?.

I vote for other because my Qur'an is printed in Indonesia. In Indonesian Islamic book store I never found Qur'an that printed in foreign countries.
In Indonesia, every texts in Qur'an and Tafseer (translation of Al-Qur'an) must apropriate to standard from Indonesian ministry of religion.

[- IqRa -]

^ The difference is explained here;

:sl:

The different mus-hafs have different advantages.

The saudi one which is most widespread, has "colours" in it the green pages etc. This will help you to remember the actually page, as colour is more easy to rememeber (it sticks in your mind) and each page is 15 lines of Quran whereas compared to the South African which is only 13 lines per page. So if both students using the different mus-hafs learnt a page a day. The one using the Saudi version would slowly but surely finish before the other student.

However the South African one is written with more pauses etc so it helps the Student to know where to stop etc. It was written mainly for muslims who dont have arabic as their native tounge. Also the mark of the Ayah is very small, this takes the focuse of long Ayahs, if you take for an example the longest Ayah in the Quran (Surah Baqrah Ayah 282). In the Saudi mus-haf it looks very "scary" (a whole page!) but in the South African one you hardely notice it.

Oh and the Saudi mushaf has a rule of thumb, every page finishes with an ayah, it never over flows, which the South African one does.

[ardianto]

I have two types of Al-Qur'an.
One is 13 lines per page, another is 18 lines per page.

[Al-Hanbali]

For hifdh...MAKE SURE you stick to 1 mushaf!! (Can't stress it enough).

[Beardo]

^ People usually wonder why.

When memorizing, your teacher usually marks your mistake with ink or led, so you'd want the same mushaf to remember your mistakes.

And if you do change it, change it so that at least the lines and page amounts are similar. As you memorize, you'll realize you generate a visual image as well. You'll remember "oh, so this is on this page, right before this, but after that... So it has to be... "

[safiya0631]

when i started my hifz i started learning with the south african print and stuck with it all the way. i tryed learning from the saudi one but i couldnt but i think when you are doing hifz you should choose one print and stay with all the way.

[Ramadhan]

When I first learned to read Quran when I was a child I used the South African print, but now I am reading Indonesian version of Saudi Arabia print (15 lines per page) with color coded tajweed which help me a great deal in reciting the Qur'an properly as I am not able to recite fluently yet.

The best mushaf to memorize is Mushaf at-Tajweed color-coded.

Here how it looks:

You can download a pdf scanned version of the same mushaf. However, having a hard copy is always better, for the publisher and also for reading/memorizing purpose. You can buy it from: here, or here, or here.

Mushaf of Madina, is also Uthmani script, most of the Turkish mushafs are also Uthmani's script.
For Mushaf al-Madina you can download a pdf from here.

There is yet another very famous mushaf with Husrev's caligraphy. You can read it from here. Here how it looks, colors show the coincidence of similar words:

To sum up:
Mushaf at-Tajweed
Mushaf al-Madina
Mushaf al-Husrev


If you live in US, and interested in hard-copy of Mushaf al-Husrev, let me know.
Fi amanillah

I want the complete quran of the following gif pic. can you give me all of that? thank you !;D;D

[Hayaa]

I used the Desi version-- 16 lines with a green background before, but now I use the color-coded one and it's awesome. Regardless, I think it's better to just stick with one type of Qur'aan, esp if you're memorizing because it can get really confusing down the road.. :|
