The following is one method to memorize The Qur’an, which particularly differ than the other methods, in term of the strength of memory, and the short time to memorize. We will explain this method. Each page of Al-Quran will be divided into four parts which contain 3-4 verses. Read each verse for 20-40 times. Use this method in memorizing every page of The Qur’an. Do not try to memorize more then one-eighth length of juz (parts) each day, to make it easier to keep the memory. How to combine between the addition of memorization and repetition of the previous memory? Do not try to memorize The Qur’an without the process of repeating the memorized verses, because if you keep adding your memorization pages after pages until you’ve completed them all, then you expect to recall the memories from the beginning, you’ll find it hard and you’ll find yourself forgetting the previous memories. Hence, the best way to add the memorization is by combining the addition and recalling process. How to differentiate between the verses that resembles one another in the Qur’an? The best way to differentiate 2 verses that look alike, is by referring to the mushaf of Qur’an at the time you find it, to pay attention upon the difference between them, and to mark that difference so that you could remind it, Then, when you recall the recitation, pay attention to the difference you’ve marked before for several times, until you can steadily memorize the resemblance and the difference between those verses., Principles and Confinements In Memorizing The Qur’an o It is a must for you to memorize the Qur’an with the help from an ustadz (religious teacher) or a sheikh, to correct your recitation. o Try to Memorize 2 pages every day, 1 page memorized after the Fajr prayer, and the other page after the Ashr or Maghrib prayer. By this method, you’ll be able to memorize the whole Qur’an firmly within a year. If you try to add more than that, you’ll memory will be weak due to the numerous verses to recall. o Try to memorize from soorah An Naas until soorah Al Baqara, since it will be easier that way. But after you’ve finished memorizing the whole Qur’an, start the repetition from soorah Al Baqara until soorah An Naas. o Memorize the whole Qur’an by using one version of mushaf at a time, to help you in strengthening your memory and increasing your speed in remembering the postion of the verses, and the initial and the last part of every page of The Qur’an. o Every one who memorize the Qur’an at his or her first 2 years usually easily loose their memory. This phase is termed the collecting phase (Marhalah Tajmi’). Do not be sad for the loss of memory or the mistakes you made, since it is a difficult and full of test- phase. And beware of Satan, since he will use the chance to tempt you to stop memorizing the Qur’an. Neglect that worry and temptation, and keep memorizing the Qur’an, since it is a worthy treasure not all people could have. Source: [ Ссылка ] (with some Alterations)
