What food increases memory for memorising quran?

I believe that most of the foodstuffs are useful in some way or the other.

That's true, once you have learnt a certain amount it becomes easy.

but I heard that from what decrease your memory is sour stuff.. fruits etc.. like green apples and grapes!!

anyone here heard the same!!?

lol umm dunno.. I heard eating too many onions makes u dum!

newayz.. I find it helpful to memorise something if you learn the translation with it. Soon you begin remembering words from their translations. It's like a backup in your memory if you forget what you've memorised.

e.g.

Qul Say
Huw- He
Allahu Allah
Ahadd is One
us-Samad is Independant
Lam Neither
Yalid He gave birth
wa lam and nor
Yuulad was He born
Wa lam And nor
yakunl- is
lahuu to Him
kufuwan is equal
ahadd anyone.

.... memorising the translation at the same time soundz like a pretty good idea... i start like that, but then only end up just doing the arabic i forget to learn th translation at the same time...
BUT..i do very much like the idea of a constant chocolate enhancing the memory... tho if that were 100% true... id be a genius by now but as is obvious...im not..
Ive also heard that some research was done to show that starving oneself could increase ur memory.... but ummm.... plz dont try and put it into practice... i thnk those who advised us to have breakfast, are speaking with more commonsense than me!..
Take care

I heard that the Muhaddith of old Al-A'mash used to eat raisins frequently to strengthen his memory.

I see know why they used them, bc my mom allways tells me to eat raisins, because they contain sugar, and they improve your momory.
I would rather suggest to eat raisins than chocoolate bc raisins are very healthy.

ONLY ME IS ALLOWED TO EAT CHOCOLATE ihihihi

What i've been told is;

2-3 almonds every morning that have been soaked in water the night before

Cup of youghurt in the mornings (or before the exam)

Proper, proper breakfast in the morning, with honey added in milk

Choclate is eaten prior to the exam because it enhances the activity of the part of brain that is used when you do a maths exam. So if ur doing maths you should deffo do this.

Max intake of fluid to keep hydrated

And offcourse cut down on unnecessary info that occupies the memory and lots of praying.

InshAllah you will do great sis.

Taking almonds with warm milk should help. Eating 7 raisins per day, preferably duirng breakfast, should help too insya-Allah :-)

Omega 3 oil (comes from fish) has now been proven to increase brain function. You don't have to max out on salmon, you could take omega 3 capsules.
