Step 1: Memorise

Here are some suggestions on how to get started:

  1. Set a Goal:
    Decide on the specific portion of the Qur'aan you want to memorise, whether it's a Surah, a Juz', or a smaller section.
  2. Create a Plan:
    Break down your goal into smaller, manageable steps. Determine how much time you can dedicate each day or week to memorisation, and create a schedule or plan accordingly.
  3. Utilise Resources:
    Find reliable resources to aid your memorisation, such as a Qur'aan with clear Arabic text and translations in a language you understand, audio recordings of Qur'aan recitation, and memorisation apps or tools.
  4. Understand the Meaning:
    Along with memorising the Arabic text, make an effort to understand the meaning and context of the verses or chapters you are memorising from authentic resources. This will help you connect with the message of the Qur'aan on a deeper level.
  5. Review Regularly:
    Consistent review is key to retaining what you have memorised. Set aside time for regular revision sessions to reinforce your memorisation and prevent forgetting. Read your memorised portion in your daily Salah, as this has been proven to help strengthen your memorisation.
  6. Stay Motivated:
    Memorisation can be challenging, so it's important to stay motivated. Find inspiration from the beauty and significance of the Qur'aan, and remind yourself of the rewards and blessings of memorising and understanding Allah's words.
  7. Be Patient and Persistent:
    Memorisation takes time and effort, so be patient with yourself and stay persistent. Celebrate your progress along the way and don't get discouraged by setbacks. Keep pushing forward and stay committed to your goal.

Step 2: Track & Grow Trees

Tracking your progress is essential in staying motivated and monitoring your growth in Qur'aan memorisation journey. The Everlasting Trees Journal provides you with a unique visual tree tracker that allows you to visually mark your progress and watch your tree grow as you memorise more verses.

Here's how you can track and grow your memorisation journey:

  1. Use the Visual Tree Tracker:
    The Everlasting Trees Journal features a visual tree tracker that lets you colour in or add gold leaf stickers to represent each quarter of a Juz' (chapter) you have memorised.
  2. Stay Consistent:
    Consistency is key in the Qur'aan memorisation journey. Use The Everlasting Trees Journal to set a daily or weekly memorisation routine and stick to it.
  3. Celebrate your milestones and stay motivated by tracking your progress and witnessing your tree grow with each step.

As you progress, you can see your tree come to life, providing you with a tangible visual representation of your achievements.

Step 3: Reflect

  1. Reflect:
    The Everlasting Trees Journal also includes space for reflection and review. After memorising a portion of the Qur'aan, take a moment to reflect on the meaning and significance of the verses.
  2. Review:
    Review the memorised verses regularly to reinforce your memory and deepen your understanding of the Qur'aan teachings.
