Many of you have memorised the Qur’ān but have forgotten it. Take Bilal Memon for example, he memorised quickly and then had to re-memorise while working a 9-to-5 job. This happens for many reasons but most commonly: Now, you’re probably stuck in cycle of trying to re-memorise but are struggling. I have previously mentioned ways…

I have always stressed the importance of community and for us, a Hifz community is of utmost importance. As someone deeply immersed in the Hifz community, I often come across invaluable Hifz tips, advice, and methods shared in our groups. Realising that not everyone has access to these conversations, I decided to create a comprehensive…
Surah Al-Mulk, a chapter of the Qur’ān, holds a profound place in the hearts of believers. Comprising 30 verses, it is renowned for its spiritual significance and the peace it brings to those who recite it.

Over the years, my journey with the Qur’ān has led me to delve deep into various memorisation techniques, each with its own beauty and challenges.

Imagine being born blind, unable to see the words of the Qur’ān before you. Imagine being unable to speak, your voice silenced.

Many of you reach out to me asking for du’ā’, ad’iyāt, azkār, or awrād that you can use to help you with your Qur’ān memorisation. A du’ā’ for memory? Are there any du’ā’ that you can recite to make Hifz easier? Are there any wazā’if to help you with your memory? Are there any ways…
