How do you balance hifz and school?

**At Tayyib** · 18-03-2012, 01:24 PM

Advice to all aspiring Huffaz.

If you are starting to memorise in your teens or later, then please make it a habit of reciting One Juz daily by looking into the Qur'an. If you can manage this for a year at the least, then only start memorising the Qur'an.

So can some body suggest a good time management, that she can do it in 8-9 months, I know her she is hardworking and can manage 6-8 hours a day,

it depends.
if your reading is fluent bv looking in then i would say start from surah baqarah and if not then you can read juz 29. It doesnt really matter to be honest. Just concentrate on jus amma for now then once you finish you can discuss that.

First off all if she has done 10 and a half juz then mashallah only 2 thirds left to go. But this is where shaytaan is at the strongest, he tries to pull you back from going forward. He does this by:
1.Making you think that your dor is weak
2.makes you procastinate so you forget your dor
3.makes you think that it is taking too long
4.makes you want to learn more sabaq which in turn makes your dor very weak
5.makes you think that you are wasting your time and instead you should exert your efforts on other aspects of deen
6.makes the remainder 20 juz seem so long as if you will never be able to reach your destination
7. the list is endless
So this is where you will need to have sabr and motivation.

What do you mean by:

but had a problem with repetation

If she does'nt have a teacher then if she can get a recording devise and test herself. Also if you can find someone whose nazirah is very good they can also test you.

With time management i would say that she would need to
1.spend one-two hours a night on new sabaq. (once learned listen to on recording device)
2.after or before fajr spend one or two hour revising the new sabaq from last night. (once learned listen to on recording device)
3.spend one hour on the para that she is on. (once learned listen to on recording device)
4.Give one hour to learn her dor(one para). (once learned listen to on recording device)
5.Recite at least 3 paras from memory every day (with this exercise don't worry about mistakes when your going wrong then open the quraan and find out the mistake and keep going forward)

I was scared and discontinued. Still I remember those surahs what I had learned during my childhood.One thing what I have noticed things which you remember at your childhood you will never forget easily,and remembering anything is very easy.
Now I have decided to Alima course online,soon Inshaallah.

I recommend you do the alimah course and you a can memorise about 3-4 lines a day.

To everyone,
The key to have your memorization strong is that:
1.You learn your new sabaq STRONG SOLID with CONFIDENCE. Do not go to sleep until you haven't learned it without stuttering and NO mistakes.
2.Every day you must read at least the juz that your sabaq is currently in.
3.Learn at least on juz for your dor.
4.Do at least 3-juz from memory every day
5.Learn by reading LOUDLY.
6.Learn by looking in and concentrate on the mushaf don't learn by memory but rather once you have learned then read by meomory. Try to point at where you are reading.

non urdu speakers
new sabaq means newly memorized ayaats
dor means previously learned juz
para means juz

jazakallah fr your reply sis tak.....
Why should I opt for boarding if I have an option of online course.
Currently where I am staying ,mostly institute are of different thoughts.Most of the islamic schools are run by different fiqh,for eg Dr.Zakir naik's school.People are very influence by him in my area. Because they promote through media etc.on contrary I rarely see any hanfi fiqh school.I am very confuse,sometimes I think I will learn first arabic language, then I will go for further studies.
I am working (lecturer) only option is I have to leave my work if have to learn these things sincerely.I don't have long term goal of working.

@brother byellow200

for your advice, you gave a good schedule, but I think she will have a hard work to recite three juz per day ,but.

will give her motivation, I think she can be consistent on this schedule as I know she was doing 6-5 hours work daily on memorize ..

sister.

If you are working, then online course is better replacement, you should not learn arabic, because its part of aalima course, so if you join some firm classes it will be better,
