Why memorize the Qur'an?
"Rather, it is clear verses preserved in the hearts of those who have been given knowledge." (Qur'an 29:49)
"It will be said to the companion of the Qur'an: Recite and rise, for your rank will be according to the last verse you recite." (Tirmidhi)
A child who memorizes the Qur'an carries the words of Allah in his heart. It benefits his family, raises the status of his parents, and becomes a source of blessing for generations to come.
