I used to be one of those who really struggled to read the Quran. I remeber I used to recite surah Mulk before bed and it would take me 40min to read. Sometimes I fell asleep before finishing it. I didn’t give up! I kept reading the Quran everyday until I got used to most of words. Sometimes I still struggle but its way more easier now and I can read a Juz in 1h aprox Imagine thinking that Allah wont help you be fluent in the Quran! Allah helps His servants and helps them even more when they trying to be closer to Him. So dont lose hope, make the effort, every day sit down with your Quran for an hour and see the progress yourself. Read 1 verse in Arabic and read its translation and in shaa Allah you eill be fluent Also the more you struggle to read the more good deeds you get, so you end up getting more good deeds that those who are fluent in Arabic! Ramadan kareem 🌙
Subhanallah, i had the same experience. Just surah al kahf would take me almost 2 hours, but as you said, if you keep trying Allah will allow you to become fluent inshallah. After “practising” for about a year, this will be the first ramadan where I read the quran inshallah Alhamdulillah
Narrated Abu Huraira [Sahih al-Bukhari 7563]: The Prophet (ﷺ) said: “Two words are beloved to the Most Merciful. They are light on the tongue but heavy on the scale: ''Subhan Allah wa-bi hamdihi'' and ''Subhan Allahi Al-‘Atheem." عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَلِمَتَانِ حَبِيبَتَانِ إِلَى الرَّحْمَنِ خَفِيفَتَانِ عَلَى اللِّسَانِ ثَقِيلَتَانِ فِي الْمِيزَانِ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَبِحَمْدِهِ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ الْعَظِيمِ
Alhamdullilah when it comes to reading the Quran I really put effort into it. It took me less than 2 years to go from alphabet to proficient in Tajweed. but my ultimate dream is to fully understand it. I’ve been learning Arabic but I didn’t expect to be studying over 2 years and still barely understand. It’s a struggle most of us have. May Allah make it easy and allow us to understand His beautiful words in our lifetimes ameen
Speaking about the clip at the beginning from 0:00 to 0:48 that is so true.... I feel we muslims haven't understood the Quran in its full dynamic. We don't stop to think that it is verbatim the words of Allaah. We don't know that even kuffaar of the time of its revelation who were masters of the Arabic language were left dumbstruck at the eloquence and greatness of the Quran's recitation. True we find people reading it and playing it in the background today in the month of Ramadan but it is all at a very superficial level 😢 may Allaah rectify our hearts and make his words the springs of our hearts 🤲
Assalaimu alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuhu!! Subhanallah ever since I reverted I had this desire to understand the Arabic of the Quran AND the beautiful duas that are recited especially at the end of Taraweeh!! It sounds so emotional and heart touching but I can’t understand!!! Alhammdulillah I understand a few words here and there but still not near enough to get the full meaning!!! The English translation of the Quran has an amazing beautiful meaning, what about the Arabic?!
Wa aleykumu salaam sister. What a great comment. You found the right channel. This is without doubt the most beneficial channel for anyone wanting to learn about Islam. They also offer a course in Arabic and it is Ustadh Tim Humble that teaches, a revert himself mashaAllah. So you can learn with them if you are interested.
23:45 فمي بشوق ف: سورة الفاتحة إلى المائدة م: سورة المائدة إلى يونس ي: سورة يونس إلى بني إسرائيل ب: سورة بني إسرائيل ( الإسراء) ـ إلى الشعراء ش: سورة الشعراء إلى والصافات و: سورة والصافات إلى ق ق: سورة ق إلى آخر سورة الناس
may Allah bless us with the means and ability to spend 15 hours per day reciting/studying/listening to the Quran in Ramadan and perhaps even outside of it
_"Indeed, We have sent it down as an Arabic Quran so that you may understand."_ _Quran (12:2)_ May Allah سبحانه و تعالى give us the ability to finish the Quran as much as possible. Ameen!
A reminder to myself. Try to read the Quran everyday, from Al-Fatiha to An-Naas, over and over, to familiarize the words. And look at the translations. Insyaallah eventually we will understand what we read
i have a minor problem with our imams here in india, the recitation is wayy too fast. And i don't mean it as in being a little bit faster, THE IMAM LITERALLY SPEEDRUNS IT. And i have seen that the majority opinion of scholars is to pray with him even if the recitation is practically incomprehensible. In addition to this, their witr prayer is similar to maghrib. But because we have to follow the imam till the end for the full reward, i still pray with them. And NOBODY objects to this in the masjid for some reason.
At my masjid, during Jummah everybody does 2 rakat “sunnah” before Jummah (not the 2 rakat upon walking in the masjid) everywhere I have looked states the 2 rakat sunnah is AFTER Jummah and also isn’t to be done in congregation every single time. This masjid every single Jummah everybody does 2 rakat before Jummah. I’m the only one sitting down. Am I wrong for this?
i believe in Allah and believe that Islam the the truth. But I feel like my heart has heardened or sealed due to kufr-waswas from shaytan. Have they entered my heart without me knowing???? How do i relive my heart again? Im scared to read quran because of the verses, like i feel scared in my head but my heart is void, im scared i have left the fold of islam?? How do i keep on the Straight path? How do i love Allah again like i used to? How do I relive my heart again????? Please help me and include me in your duas. May Allah put light of iman in my heart 😔 just 2 weeks ago i was so soft hearted and cried easily at the rememberance of Allah and His verses. Now i just feel scared and harshness in my heart. But i want to pray to my Rabb with a soft heart again, i want to listen and recite quran I want to be loved by Him. Please help me and make dua for me. May Allah reward you 😔😔
But Sheikh Arabic is not our first language may be that's the reason or not??? Pls reply I am sometimes lie in this situation where I hear Quran with concentration but it does not make me cry
Listen to a reciter with the translation beforehand, take mental note of the verses Allah talks about powerful issues like Jannah and Jahannam, mercy and punishment or the warnings of the former peoples.
