typo!!!

Memories and memorize both are transitive verb carried same meaning. To memorize. Although meaning should be understood we can not judge each time typo and mistakes of grammar.

for reply and with my very little knowledge I am thankful for your rectification. Hope you dont mind showing my mistakes in future.

Any thoughts!!!

Sister;

Writing the Quran as part of a method of memorization is a well established way of memorizing Quran particularly in Mauritania.

There's a thread on it here:

http://www.sunniforum.com/forum/show...-in-Mauritania

You still have to go over each portion that you're memorizing but I imagine it would be never leave your mind after that .

I also read about writing 5 lines on a piece of paper then going over that throughout the day. Link here:

I imagine both would be extremely beneficial to memorizing. I would love to memorize this way but my handwriting is so bad that I couldn't read or recognize what I wrote.

May Allah grant you reward in both world with falah aameen.

Duaa go va jo,

You can do that but it will take your lots of time. Remember for its safety (in touching without wudhu) dont leave as it is. Keep the written verses (on paper) on any safe place. I recommend you to keep one separate book for writing verses.

May Allah Taala assist you to be strong-willed. Ameen

A Story

So, this technique was taught by the Algerian Shaykh Zakariya al-Siddiqi who teaches at the Institute of Human Sciences in France is one of the foremost scholars of Quran.

He memorised it by the age of 9 and dedicated his life to studying and teaching it, and he once told us the story of one of his friends. His friend was an engineering student, who was a 'Fresher' about to embark on a 5 year degree. Let's call him Ahmed...

Ahmed was an intelligent student who Followed one of the oft-forgotten Sunnah's of Success...

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.

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. 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.
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.

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 raka', he would alternate between the 5 lines from that day, and the 5 lines he learned the day before. And remember...

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.

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.
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.
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 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.

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 fulfillment, 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...
