[0:00](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4V2UEmHU5CIw/en/how-to-memorize-the-quran-practical-steps-and-benefits) Then I call upon all of you, young and old, gathered here, whether here in person or watching on screens, men and women, to make the most of your lives in memorizing the Quran, for, by God, it is the firmest rope, and a source of honor and elevation in this world, the barzakh, and the Hereafter.

[0:22](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4V2UEmHU5CIw/en/how-to-memorize-the-quran-practical-steps-and-benefits?t=22) The person devoted to the Quran is given precedence in this world, as you see when leading the worshippers in prayer, and in the barzakh, in burial, as with the martyrs of Badr, when the one who had learned more of God's Book was chosen.

[0:37](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4V2UEmHU5CIw/en/how-to-memorize-the-quran-practical-steps-and-benefits?t=37) The Prophet, peace be upon him, gave him priority.

[0:40](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4V2UEmHU5CIw/en/how-to-memorize-the-quran-practical-steps-and-benefits?t=40) And in the Hereafter, the person devoted to the Quran will be told, “Recite, ascend, and recite steadily.”

[0:45](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4V2UEmHU5CIw/en/how-to-memorize-the-quran-practical-steps-and-benefits?t=45) The person devoted to the Quran will clothe their parents— will place upon them the crown of honor.

[0:51](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4V2UEmHU5CIw/en/how-to-memorize-the-quran-practical-steps-and-benefits?t=51) And so, there are ways to memorize this Quran.

[0:55](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4V2UEmHU5CIw/en/how-to-memorize-the-quran-practical-steps-and-benefits?t=55) I'll be brief. First, resolve and set your intention, and pray to God sincerely and repeatedly to grant you this great honor.

[1:06](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4V2UEmHU5CIw/en/how-to-memorize-the-quran-practical-steps-and-benefits?t=66) Then, hasten to get a single printed copy of the Quran, and base your memorization on that copy, choosing one you can comfortably read.

[1:19](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4V2UEmHU5CIw/en/how-to-memorize-the-quran-practical-steps-and-benefits?t=79) And set how much you will memorize each day, and be sure to keep the amount small, memorizing less and repeating more.

[1:28](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4V2UEmHU5CIw/en/how-to-memorize-the-quran-practical-steps-and-benefits?t=88) Memorize one page of the Quran each day.

[1:32](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4V2UEmHU5CIw/en/how-to-memorize-the-quran-practical-steps-and-benefits?t=92) Fifteen lines, divided into sections. Into three sections, for example.

[1:39](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4V2UEmHU5CIw/en/how-to-memorize-the-quran-practical-steps-and-benefits?t=99) Listen carefully and attentively to a reciter, then start imitating him and memorize it afterward.

[1:47](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4V2UEmHU5CIw/en/how-to-memorize-the-quran-practical-steps-and-benefits?t=107) Repeat it letter by letter, word by word, sentence by sentence, line by line, verse by verse.

[1:56](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4V2UEmHU5CIw/en/how-to-memorize-the-quran-practical-steps-and-benefits?t=116) And link that verse to the one that follows.

[1:59](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4V2UEmHU5CIw/en/how-to-memorize-the-quran-practical-steps-and-benefits?t=119) And so on, until you read at least one page a day.

[2:04](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4V2UEmHU5CIw/en/how-to-memorize-the-quran-practical-steps-and-benefits?t=124) And if—if you can memorize two sides, two sides, not two pages, that is, fifteen lines and another fifteen lines, you will complete the Quran in less than a year, God willing.

[2:18](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4V2UEmHU5CIw/en/how-to-memorize-the-quran-practical-steps-and-benefits?t=138) But this is God's inheritance for His devoted servants.

[2:22](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4V2UEmHU5CIw/en/how-to-memorize-the-quran-practical-steps-and-benefits?t=142) The Exalted said, “Then We bequeathed the Book to those of Our servants whom We chose.”

[2:27](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4V2UEmHU5CIw/en/how-to-memorize-the-quran-practical-steps-and-benefits?t=147) And the Exalted said, “Rather, these are clear signs within the breasts of those given knowledge.”

[2:32](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4V2UEmHU5CIw/en/how-to-memorize-the-quran-practical-steps-and-benefits?t=152) Look at the efforts of these scholars. Look at what the Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him, did and what he endured in conveying this Quran.

[2:41](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4V2UEmHU5CIw/en/how-to-memorize-the-quran-practical-steps-and-benefits?t=161) Look at the descent of Gabriel, Gabriel, the great, honored angel.

[2:45](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4V2UEmHU5CIw/en/how-to-memorize-the-quran-practical-steps-and-benefits?t=165) God sent him with this Quran because of its honor and its exalted status.

[2:49](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4V2UEmHU5CIw/en/how-to-memorize-the-quran-practical-steps-and-benefits?t=169) The Exalted said, “Indeed, it is the word of a noble messenger Mighty, with the Lord of the Throne, of high rank, obeyed and trustworthy.”

[2:58](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4V2UEmHU5CIw/en/how-to-memorize-the-quran-practical-steps-and-benefits?t=178) These are all descriptions of honor and distinction for Gabriel, peace be upon him, so that he would be worthy of bringing this Quran down upon the heart of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and causing it to burst peace and blessings be upon him.

[3:10](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4V2UEmHU5CIw/en/how-to-memorize-the-quran-practical-steps-and-benefits?t=190) “And indeed, it is a revelation from the Lord of all worlds, brought down by the Trustworthy Spirit upon your heart, so that you may be one of the warners, in clear Arabic.”

[3:21](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4V2UEmHU5CIw/en/how-to-memorize-the-quran-practical-steps-and-benefits?t=201) So, by God, take care to fill the hours and make good use of them, for the greatest thing that brings one closer to God is His speech, Mighty and Exalted.

[3:30](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4V2UEmHU5CIw/en/how-to-memorize-the-quran-practical-steps-and-benefits?t=210) So seek God’s help, and renew your resolve and your minds, your minds, and resolve to master and memorize this Quran, while remaining committed to prayer, asking God for help, success, sound judgment, and guidance.

[3:46](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4V2UEmHU5CIw/en/how-to-memorize-the-quran-practical-steps-and-benefits?t=226) That is all, and God knows best. May God’s peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and all his companions.
