Hafiz (Quran) - Practice

Practice

Having memorised the Quran, the hafiz or hafiza must then ensure they do not forget it. To ensure perfect recall of all the learned verses requires constant practice.

The memorisation of the Quran was very important to Muslims in the past and is also in the present. Yearly many students master the Quran and complete the book with tafsir (understanding) and also memorisation. The total number of hafiz and hafizas currently alive in the world has been estimated in the tens of millions.

Famous quotes containing the word practice:

    Indubitably, Magick is one of the subtlest and most difficult of the sciences and arts. There is more opportunity for errors of comprehension, judgement and practice than in any other branch of physics.
    Aleister Crowley (1875–1947)

    Those who make a practice of comparing human actions are never so perplexed as when they try to see them as a whole and in the same light; for they commonly contradict each other so strangely that it seems impossible that they have come from the same shop.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    The classroom, with all its limitations, remains a location of possibility. In that field of possibility we have the opportunity to labor for freedom, to demand of ourselves and our comrades, an openness of mind and heart that allows us to face reality even as we collectively imagine ways to move beyond boundaries, to transgress. This is education as the practice of freedom.
    bell hooks (b. c. 1955)
