HOW TO MEMORISE THE QURAN EASILY? 15 STEPS

 

“And We have indeed made the Qur’an easy to understand and remember, but is there any that  will remember?”
[al-Qamar: 17]

 

Indeed, reciting the Qur’aan and memorising it has benefits that cannot be counted. There are causes and reasons that aid us in memorising the Qur’an. The following are the most important ones:

 

1- Du’aa
Du’aa is from the greatest causes that will aid you in memorisation because as the beloved, the chosen one (sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam) has said, “Du’aa is worship.” And ordered us to have (certainty) that the du’aa will be answered. He said, “Call unto Allaah in certainty and know that Allaah does not answer the heedless and inattentive heart.” So, increase in du’aa – that Allaah `azza wa jall makes you from the people of Qur’aan, because as it is said, ‘whoever persists knocking at the door, it’s bound to open for him.

 

2- Cleansing of the soul from bad akhlaaq
Learning the Qur’aan is worship of the heart, prayer in secret and drawing closer to Allaah azza wa jall, and just like the fact that the prayer is not valid except with outward tahaarah (purity) of the body, clothes and place of prayer… the inner acts of worship – of the heart – are not valid except with the purification of the heart from hypocrisy, deception, filth, malice and envy, enmity and hatred – and those are the impurities of the heart, soul and inner being.
