I don't know of any hifz programs. You should ask at your local masjid / islamic center. There are also online programs available. Search for them if you're interested in online programs.
 
Salam alaykum

6 is the perfect age for learning new languages. Children learn new things easier than adults. What is like :exhausted to us, its like a play to them.
 
yea i bought islamic dvd called adams world its about quran how people become hafiz alhudiallah i found a school so gonna talk to my husband laters.She goes normal Madrasah four times a week. her teaches say shes amazing shes like ten year old level apparantly :) she never speaks in class always focuses which is good :)
 
Masha'allah. May Allah make a a hafidha who will protect and practise upon the Qur'an, and may He bless her with goodness and keep her safe always, as well as her family, ameen.!
 
Yes some girls can be very academic, but don't have your hopes set too high. When she gets to the age of puberty she may throw academia away and prefer to settle down and have babies. This is the main reason boys have always been taken more seriously in their career paths.
 
Yes, and that's a bias we should learn to drop. The women need educating too, and the Prophet pbuh expressed this most importantly. A shaikha, or alima can advise the women on matters which men will often feel out of their depth in - I'm sure you know what I mean. To relegate the role of a Muslimah to one of the domestic carer is nothing short of a fallacy in modern Islamic understanding. As long as a woman in Islam fulfils her obligations to her husband and her children, she is free to do what she pleases within the bounds of Islam - and that includes not having to cook for her husband... not many know that apparently.

Women have far more important roles to fulfil in the modern age then men do today, in my honest opinion - and one area where we Muslim men need to reconcile is our attitudes towards the women - they are our sisters, daughters and mothers in Islam - our primary teachers, and nurturers, but that is not al;l they are - they are also independent and fiercely opinionated on matters they are close to - matters which often see men pale when mentioned, so to deny them the right of education based on some silly notion that once they are married - that's the end of the story - is a false ideal. Women can own businesses, can run schools, teach, be nurses, doctors and physicians, etc - all these things as well as being mothers and wives... on that level, we men pale in comparison... we can't even feel empathy for a child once we've grown up... shame on us.

To help drive this point home, I want to drop this in:

Sister Marina Aisha did you manage to find a Hafiz programme for your daughter?

Anyone reading this post, whatever age you are right now. It's not TOO LATE. Whether your 20, 60, 30. YOU yourself can become a Hafiz of the Qur'an :ia:. Even if it's one ayah a day, slowly you will make it :). Imagine close to your death, knowing YOU are the one who memorized the book of Allah. Of course our intentions should be to gain pleasure of Allah :swt1:. We should also strive to understand the Qur'an too, pondering upon its meanings, reading tafsir etc.

Check out this thread, 82 years old and how she became Hafiz Subhan Allah.

There is no need to flip out with a feminist rant, the girl is only six years old. They do go through some changes as they grow up you know. I am just saying that when she becomes interested in having children when approaching puberty, her perspectives might change. Maybe she would like a large family or maybe she would rather be a career woman. But females are hard wired for reproduction so what are the probabilities? And if you think a woman should have the burden of a family and a career, I think you are asking too much. Allah only gives people burden enough that they can live with. I think your "modern" way puts more of a burden on females than males, so it is not in keeping with Islam.

So long as you understand that the choice is theirs, not ours as men - it's all good bro.

Sister Marina-Aisha, I pray your daughter does become a hafidha and in return she teaches you the Quran, Ameen!
 
Karl, memorizing the Quran has nothing to do with going through puberty and reproducing children! Anyone can become a hafidh of Quran, regardless of being male or female, Muslim or non-Muslim, pre-pubescent or post!



Where is the dislike button?!
