Alhamdullilah, there has been a very enthusiastic response to the announcement of this initiative and as promised, this is the next step. We need to figure out how many people will be in each level.
Now, before going on. We very much emphasize that if you have not memorized Juz 'Amma, that you please get into the Juz 'Amma level. Starting off memorization with Juz 'Amma is going to be very helpful for these reasons:
1) Short ayaat and short surahs. When we start memorizing Qur'an, our minds are not ready to intake a lot of new information. Starting with Juz 'Amma enables your mind to get ready to memorize.
2) You will see yourself progress. The surahs are short, so you will notice progress and this will keep you motivated.
3) These are surahs that are the most commonly recited.
What is going to be done is the following - remember we said that there will be 3 levels? Level One for Juz 'Amma, Level Two for Juz Tabarak, and Level Three for other Suwar?
All we ask for you to do in this thread is the following - in a post please:
1) Write which Level you want to join. Again, if you have not done Juz 'Amma, we strongly recommend you join Level 1 - Juz 'Amma.
2) Tell us how many ayaat you think you can memorize per day. Even if it is just 1 ayat, nothing at all wrong with that. If you can do more, let us know.
3) If you are opt for Level 3, then please let us know in your post which Surah you are interested in memorizing.*
* Once we complete this step, we will choose the surah based off of poll insha Allaah.
Sorry my head hurts a lot when I pray salah or recite al Quran, and it's very fuzzy at the moment, so please excuse the questions. I'm not clear if we are supposed to recite in our own time or are we going to have a class online? What if our tajweed isn't perfect?

Memorize at your own time (i.e. offline), however we will post lessons (of the specific # of ayaat) daily. The people in the group are expected to memorize them and stay with the group. A review will be posted like every 4 or 5 days. There's no class online per se. If your Tajweed is ok, you can go ahead and memorize. There are some good videos on YouTube on Tajweed which I'll put up to help people's Tajweed.

Let's say, for example someone was memorising Surah al-Baqarah. Could they progress a little bit faster, or is it necessary that they stay at the group's pace? For example, a page a day. And how is it going to work with different people memorising a different amount?

what if for your own personal reasons you cant memorize the specific number of ayahs set for that few days?
...desperate for husnul-khitaam...
please make dua that Allah grants me a good end (to my life). please make dua that Allah guides me.
I don't get it. If there's no online class then how are we gonna be sure about our tajweed?? Tajweed is the first step in Hifz, if it wasn't for Tajweed I would have started on my own. Please clarify

If Allah helps you, none can overcome you; and if He forsakes you, who is there after Him that can help you? And in Allah (Alone) let believers put their trust.
Surah Ale Imran : 160
It was narrated that Anas ibn Maalik (may Allaah be pleased with him) said:
The Prophet (blessings and peace of Allaah be upon him) climbed up Uhud, accompanied by Abu Bakr, ‘Umar and ‘Uthmaan, and the mountain shook with them. He struck it with his foot and said: “Stand firm, O Uhud, for there is no one on you but a Prophet or a Siddeeq or two martyrs.”
Narrated by al-Bukhaari (3483)
Allah (Subhaanahu Wa Taala) does not inspire seeking forgiveness in a slave whom he wishes to punish.

You can catch up insha'Allaah.

You can't learn Tajweed perfectly unless you're sitting one-on-one with a teacher, so if your Tajweed is passable (you are giving the letters their right) then you can start memorizing. That's how I started out. If you feel your Tajweed needs work then I'd advice sitting with a teacher because that's really the only way to really learn Tajweed well.

We had to make it 3 because there were only three people in this Level and the average of the requested number of ayaat requested was 3..maybe you can just try to keep up? It's ok if you're not completely up with it as long as you are consistent insha Allaah.

I think its veyr hard for me to do in Radaman being a housewife, but InshaAllah i will try as much as possible and will catch up when I cant. When do we start and how? I read Ali_008 is in the group with me, do we start together? I have done around 20 Surah from the back, I would like to do Al Alaq now, InshaAllah, so how do we go about this now?
At home, on my own I do around 2-3 Verses every time and I wait for a day or two to memorise it well after practicing it in salah...I just thought maybe it would be toof ast and I will forget what i did the day before, but Im keen on learning and retaining InshaAllah.
