Quran Page 135

Usually it can take anywhere between 1 to 4 hours to memorise a page well, sometimes less. So naturally memorising 2 pages or more would therefore require double the amount of time and effort. So memorising 2 pages might take 1 to 8 hours. This is why it's usually those that are doing Hifdh full-time that get to memorise multiple number of pages. However, it is possible even when doing it part-time, to memorise 2 pages. I got to a level where I memorised a Juz' in 9 days, part-time (2 hours after school).
However, the time it takes to memorise will vary person to person. The amount of time it takes you will also gradually improve over time. This is because over time, you begin to become accustomed to the vocabulary in the Qur'ān. You begin to become accustomed to your own strengths and understand what you need to do to memorise the portion. You begin to see patterns better when memorising and you begin to find portions easier where there are familiar words or phrases. Your memorisation skills also improve and all of this usually results in faster memorisation. This doesn't mean you may never find it hard at times, those moments will come. I used to memorise only a few lines at the start within 2 hours! Gradually, only after several years, could I memorise a page or more. I went from memorising a page across 3 hours, down to 30 minutes.
Ultimately, the amount of time you spend is not the most important thing to worry about, it's all about the quality of your memorisation and retention. As a general rule, whatever comes in faster, leaves faster, and whatever comes in slowly, stays longer. Not only have I experienced this but so have countless others.
To memorise 2 pages, or more, you need to master memorising one page at a time. Then linking both pages (or more) together as you go along. You should never move on to a new page unless you know the first one properly. You should know each page well.
The first method is to memorise a page at a time across your day. So for instance, an easy way to do this is by scheduling things around the salāh. You can memorise a page after Fajr and then do another after 'Asr. Then revise them and your previous memorisation after Maghrib or 'Ishā'.
The second approach is to memorise sections of the pages at a time across your day. For example, you might divide the pages in halves and memorise in 4 sittings across your day. This allows you to memorise the pages with more spaced repetition. It can lead to better retention. As you do one sitting, in the next one, quickly review the the first sitting and then link it with the second sitting. In this way, you carry on in the next sittings.
A priming session can also apply to any amount you memorise. This is where you appoint a time in the day or night to become familiar with the portions you intend to memorise the next day or up to a week. This would involve you reciting the pages and listening to them.
I used to listen to the page using a PenMan Digital Quran that had a tiny LED screen with some audio. I'd put every āyah on a loop of 10 times and I would recite alongside the audio. I would then say the verse without the audio. So it was a process of memorising the verses incompletely. This is what I call priming. This is preparing your mind and getting it familiar with the verses. I'd do this right before going to sleep. This would then allow for those verses to settle in my mind in sleep. Then when waking up, I was able to memorise the page in 30 minutes. Later in the day, around 5pm, I would review it or memorise if if I hadn't done in the morning.
Alternatively, you can memorise all of your pages in one session. The older you are the more challenging this will be given a number of factors including time and fatigue. If you have no choice but to try and memorise the 2 pages in one session then you must do so at a time where you can memorise best. What is the best time to memorise the Qur'ān? It depends on a number of things but it must be a period of time that will allow you to comfortably memorise 2 pages.
However, memorizing the Quran can be daunting, especially for those new to the journey. But what if we told you that you could memorize a page of the Quran in just 5 minutes? Yes, you read that right.
Reading the page multiple times helps you become familiar with the words, their pronunciation, and their placement. This familiarity aids in memorization. The more times you read something, the more likely you are to remember it.
Look for the common theme for the verses and name it. For example, Some verses are related to manners Allah commands Muslims to do. Others are about the blessings or the verses of Allah in the universe. You can find one theme or two on one page of the holy book. Highlight those themes with the verses revolving around them.
The interpretation often provides historical and contextual information that can help you visualise the events or concepts described in the verses, making them easier to remember. When you understand the meaning of the verses, you can use the concepts or stories they convey to help recall the verses themselves.
The interpretation can help you connect with the verses on a deeper level. This emotional or intellectual connection can make the verses more memorable and interesting because it enables you to engage with the verses on a more profound level.
However, using a stopwatch is important to know how long it takes you to memorize a page of the Quran, and that will help you expect the time to memorize a part of even the entire book and then set a realistic goal to achieve that.
Physical clutter can often lead to mental clutter as it affects your senses and attracts your eyes, making it way harder for you to focus. A clear space can help promote a clear mind, This can help reduce stress and make the learning process more enjoyable, making it easier to absorb and retain new information.
Memorizing a page of the Quran in 5 minutes is a challenging yet achievable goal. The key lies in employing effective strategies that work best for you. Reading the page multiple times, memorizing the initial word of each verse, and understanding the interpretation of the verses are all the best quran memorization techniques that can aid in this process

I started the Quran when I was 10 years old, about a week after we arrived at Dar-Al-Quran, a special school that teaches only Quran. Students who are beginners form a circle and read it out loud. But as you get older, you grow out of that routine, and the teacher expects you to study and pass without assistance.
From that day on, I started waking up at 4 a.m. to memorize the Quran. I would break down the page into smaller portions and then try to read it. I listened to the Quran on my iPad three times in a row to make sure I was pronouncing it right. Then I would repeat it, again and again, until I memorized every word.
Later that night, I decided to stop going to regular school for that last two months, so I could attend Dar-Al-Quran in the morning and afternoon. This was difficult for me because I was only two months into the second semester and I was going to be tested on everything, which meant a lot of studying on the weekend. I told my mom my idea, and she agreed.
I started memorizing seven to 10 pages a day. And on April 5, 2014, I finished memorizing the holy Quran. I felt I had made my dad proud, my mom proud and even myself proud. I finally reached a goal that I was struggling to reach. I felt I could accomplish anything that came my way.

Read the page multiple times to familiarize yourself with the verses. This helps in understanding the flow and structure of the text. Gradually reduce your reliance on looking at the page and try to recite from memory.
Divide the page into smaller sections, such as verses or paragraphs. Start by memorizing one section at a time until it is firmly established in your memory. Once you have memorized all the sections, combine them to recite the entire page.
Set a specific amount of time, such as one hour, and use a stopwatch to track your progress. Allocate equal time intervals for each section or verse. This technique helps maintain focus and discipline while memorizing the page within the given time frame.
Look for patterns in the verses, such as repeated words in the Quran. These patterns can help in recalling and associating similar verses together. By recognizing these patterns, the memorization process becomes easier and more systematic.
Take the time to understand the meaning of the verses you are memorizing. When you comprehend the context and message, it becomes easier to remember and retain the information. Connect the verses to their respective themes and concepts.
