WHAT ARE HIFZ AND HAFIZ?

Hafiz or Hafiza are titles given to anyone who memorizes the Quran. The literal meaning of the word Hafiz is “Guardian.” Allah SWT promised humanity that He will protect the Quran from any change. Hence, the Huffaz are the persons Allah chose as the guardians of the Holy Quran. Furthermore, the process of becoming a Hafiz/Hafiza is called Hifz.

Here are ten benefits of memorizing the Quran:

  • Increased closeness to Allah SWT

    Memorizing the Quran is an excellent act of worship that can help you strengthen your relationship with Allah SWT.

  • Intercession on the Day of Judgment

    The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: "The Quran will intercede for its people on the Day of Judgment." (Sahih Muslim)

  • Greater understanding of Islam

    The Quran is the primary source of Islamic guidance. By memorizing the Quran, you will gain a deeper understanding of the teachings of Islam, including its beliefs, practices, and values.

  • Higher status in Paradise

    The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: "The best of you are the ones who learn the Quran and teach it." (Sahih al-Bukhari)

  • Improved memory and concentration

    Memorizing the Quran requires excellent focus and concentration. As you practice learning, you will train your brain to become more efficient at remembering and processing information.

  • Ease in reciting the Quran

    The more you repeat the Quran, the easier it will become. When you have memorized the Quran, you can recite it fluently and without difficulty.

  • Increased self-discipline and confidence

    Memorizing the Quran is a challenging task, but it is also a very rewarding one. You will feel accomplished and proud when you successfully learn the Quran.

  • Ability to teach others

    Once you have memorized the Quran, you can teach it. This is a great way to share the knowledge of the Quran with others and to help them benefit from its guidance.

  • Forgiveness of sins and blessings

    The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: "Whoever memorizes the Quran will be forgiven for their sins, and their parents will be crowned on the Day of Judgment."

  • Respect and admiration from others

    Memorizing the Quran is a great accomplishment. Those who have learned the Quran are often respected and admired by others. This can lead to more significant opportunities and success in life.

We provide a straightforward and effective methodology in that students can memorize the Quran with little time. A school-going student can also achieve this great task if they have the determination and interest to learn the Quran by heart. In-Shaa-Allah.

Initially, the student must allocate 30 minutes to the teacher for classwork until two sections/Juz are memorized. After that, the class duration is extended to 60 minutes daily, five days a week. The student should also dedicate 60 to 120 minutes at home to complete the assigned tasks, spreading them out over several days. Typically, it takes about three years for an average student to finish memorizing the Holy Quran online, though the timeline may differ from one student to another.

We understand that memorizing the Quran is complex and requires time and dedication. And somehow, not everyone could thoroughly memorize the Holy Quran. So, we have developed some variations in the online Quran memorization program.

  1. Memorize the Whole Quran: Your main goal should be to memorize the Quran to become one of the closest to Allah SWT and earn the title of Hafiz because It is the word of Allah SWT, the Most High, the Most Merciful. Memorizing the Quran is a way to get closer to Allah SWT by learning His words and understanding His message.
  2. Memorize Selected Surahs: We know memorizing the Quran is quite tricky for busy people, so we offer another plan called memorizing selected surahs to read daily and receive Allah’s blessing.

Here is a list of the selected Surahs

✔️ Surah Kahf: Abu Hurairah reported that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: “Whoever memorizes the first ten verses of Surah al-Kahf will be protected from the Dajjal.” (Sahih Muslim)

✔️ Surah Maryam: The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) also said: “Whoever reads Surah Maryam will be protected from the evil of the Shaytaan and his followers.” (Baihaqi)

✔️ Surah As-Sajdah: The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Whoever recites Surah As-Sajdah and Surah Al-Mulk at night, seventy good deeds will be written for him, his seventy sins will be erased, and his status will be raised by seventy degrees.” (Bayhaqi)

✔️ Surah Yaseen: The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Everything has a heart, and the heart of the Quran is Yasin. Whoever reads it, it is as if he has read the Quran ten times.” (Tirmidhi)

✔️ Surah Ad-Dukhan: The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: “Whoever recites Surah Ad-Dukhan at night will be forgiven of their past sins.” (Tirmidhi)

✔️ Surah Al-Fath: The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: Whoever recites Surah Al-Fath is as if he has accompanied me on the day of the conquest of Makkah. (Musnad Ahmad)

✔️ Surah Hujurat: The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: Whoever recites Surah Hujurat, Allah will reward him ten times the reward of all those who have obeyed and disobeyed Allah. (Sunan al-Tirmidhi)

✔️ Memorize Short Surahs: This is the final Plan for learning the short surahs you want to read in namaz. This Plan will help you understand the short surahs and improve your namaz.

✔️ Surah Rahman: Abdullah Ibn Mas’ud narrated that the Prophet (peace and blessing be upon him) said: “Everything has an adornment, and the adornment of the Quran is Surah Rahman.” (Sunan al-Tirmidhi)

✔️ Surah al-Waqi’ah: The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said, “Whoever recites Surah al-Waqi’ah every night will never become poor.” (Tirmidhi)

✔️ Surah Mulk: In a hadith narrated by Abu Hurairah, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: “Whoever recites Surah Mulk every night, Allah will protect him from the torment of the grave.” (Sahih al-Bukhari)

✔️ Surah Al-Muzzammil: Surah Al-Muzzammil begins with Allah calling to the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and instructing him to stand in prayer all night, except for a little while. This reminds all Muslims of the importance of prayer, especially night prayer.

✔️ Surah Al-Insan: The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: “Whoever studies Surah Hal-ata (Surah Al-Insan) will be rewarded Heaven and clothes of silk (in Heaven) by Allah.” (Sunan an-Nasa’i)

✔️ Surah an-Naba’: The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: “Whoever recites Surah an-Naba’ every night will not be overtaken by the Day of Judgment.” (Sahih al-Bukhari)

✔️ Surah at-Takwir: The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: “Allah will save him who studies Surah Takwir from being exposed to shame when the book of deeds will be laid open.” (Sunan At-Tirmidhi)

✔️ Memorize the Last (30) Juz of The Quran: If you’re one of those aged people who think that they can’t memorize the whole Quran or big selected surahs, this Plan is good for you because, in this Plan, you will remember the short surahs you read daily.
