I am a Haafiz of the Qur'aan. I recite at medium pace and recite one Juz daily.

Question

I am a Haafiz of the Qur'aan. I recite at medium pace and recite one Juz daily. Please give me some advice. What dua should I recite to strengthen my Hifz?

Answer

You should fear Allah Ta'ala and be ashamed of yourself for reciting only one Juz a day despite being a Haafiz. The minimum a Haafiz should recite daily is ten Juz. Even if you recite at medium pace, it will take you 30 minutes for one Juz. That is five hours for ten Juz. It is quite easy to spread the five hours over the 24 hours. Dua is not sufficient. In addition to Dua, you have to struggle and apply pressure against your nafs. It is haraam to indulge in futility. Abandon futility. Inculcate Taqwa and your memory will brighten and your heart will gain Noor.
