As Muslims we are required to
memorize the Qur’an in the performance of the five daily salaat
(worship), in which they recite verses from the Qur’an in prayer.
Beyond this,
there is great merit in memorization of the Qur’an, physically from health
benefits to spiritually an abundance of blessings and numerous rewards in the afterlife.
The Holy Prophet
Muhammad (peace be on him) is reported to have said, “Recitation of the Qur’an
is the best divine service of my followers.”
There are different techniques
used in memorization, which vary depending on individual and teacher
propensities and preferences. Some persons prefer to hear the recitation aloud,
others to read the script, and yet others to do both. Whatever the method, this course gives you the opportunity to memorize the last 10 chapters of the Holy Quran.
