HifzWarrior-Journey to complete hifz at age 46+

 I just realised recently that the Quran in Madinah hafs has changed. The fonts changed. Thus the placement of some ayat r not the same as the old ones.  For visual peeps who memorised the Quran, they can detect it easy.  I used to be visual. I memorised the placement/location of the Sura (right or left of page) and the location of the sentences (I remembered Al-A'laq is complete in 1 page for old ones whereas the new ones, some continued in another page. I remembered cos of The sujud tilawah/prostration symbol). For many decades, all haj pilgrims got a free Mushaf Quran. And it has been the same only in my recent Umrah, I noticed the changes. And I used the new Quran, recently unknowingly n I felt that my visualed memory of past hifz was a bit off.  Me n my kids - we have memorised using the Old Quran. Thus to change is challenging. We r often advised to use only 1 same type. Anyway, it's no biggie for some.  The words r still the same. The meaning too. Just the visual of it..

 Alhamdulillah, I complete page 1 of Surah Jinn... To celebrate, I made myself n other hifz students like me who love huge fonts on TV screen.....  I hope it's allowed.  Isn't it great to recite while watching while doing exercise, doing daily chores or cutting onions n more? I believe my late grandmom would love it.  Like me, she too loves huge fonts....  Anyway, resources not mine, either I got it free from the Madinah Quran or I bought the reciter voices from iTunes. Not for earning money or commercial profit or own pocket but to help hifz students like me.  So do recite Al-Fateha for all involved.  May Allah make ease for us n allow us be the permanent dwellers of Jannatul Firdaus Amiin. (also it's just a noob attempt, I've forgotten most of my vid edits n Imovie n YouTube stuff but I'm relearning).  https://youtu.be/5eQ3f1Dxfxg?si=O50XNWxMuDkeLIQw https://youtu.be/4oAfxGGIZcc?si=T89Li96-4hrZfzlD

 A small ebook that motivates us on our hifz journey, InsyaAllah...  Walking-With-Angels-Hifdh-ebook.pdf And also...  If u r struggling with Sura Jinn like me...  https://t.co/zhWRHirYv3 Hope these helps.  May Allah help us all.  And may we be permanent dwellers of Jannatul Firdaus. Amiin. 

 I found out the issue. The ayat 12 of Sura Jinn.... I feel that part of me felt ashamed because of the sins of the past n currently accumulating. If the Jinn can feel this way, why can't I?  Anyway, I talked to my heart n say, it's OK... If u want to beat fast, or be heavy or restless... so be it. If I die from heart issues due to this, I'm happy because I die while memorising Sura Jinn.  And then, I felt my heart relaxed. N I didn't have much issues reading the first page over and over again.  (to memorise Sura Jinn, I divide them by pages. I focus fully on 1st page because it has many similar sentences. Then once fluent, n memorised, I shall moved onto the next page).  Alhamdulillah, I have gone past ayat no. 7... I remembered back in my youth, age 20 n below, we didn't have Quran app with translations. I have the hard copy, a small one. The English translation words were too small so I seldom read it. But when I read the Quran (Arabic only) , sometimes I feel sa

 I thought, I had completed Sura Jinn hifz by now. But I'm stuck.  For whatever reasons unknown to me, I can only memorised 7 ayat. Yes it has been marinating in me for so long.  I wallow in my sappy disappointment and it didn't help much. And so I forced myself and it is worse.  And so I took a longer break from my teacher.  It feels heavy too (as taught by my teacher, I have to ignore all these as excuses to stop hifz due to syaithan) but as an energy healing coach, I have to find out is it because of the energetic vibe of every sentence and it's meaning? I'm super sensitive. And so perhaps, I need to reflect more and deeper on them.  Anyway...  My hifz teacher taught me that challenges like this can be solved by holding/placing my hand on head (for brain actually) and recite Sura Al-A'la ayat 6 for 3 times: سنقرئك فلا تنسى Hope that helps.  Also, I have issues with my heart recently.... Just heaviness n extra heart activeness whenever I'm stressful to face th

 Long were the days where I can memorise a whole page within minutes. At this golden age of 46, I found that my mind is more stubborn and kinda have it's own mind. After doing my best to focus as much, planned time =10hours but I can only sit still max 4 hours with breaks in between. Later on, after a week of faithfully focusing, the next week, my mind refused to memorise the new sura : Al-Jinn. It kinda rebel. Like a block.  Thinking that 1 sura per week is super slow for me (a noob who has high self expectations), I wanted to hurry the pace. But again, I haven't learn my lessons in previous Sura. Anyway this site may help: https://howtomemorisethequran.com/tips-on-how-to-memorise-surah-al-jinn-with-ease/ The thinker in me wander in wonder why am I having such a challenge with this Sura. Though it has repetitive "Wa Anna..." It's not even about the sura's complexity. It's to start the engine that I'm having to trouble with. My youngest joked that I of

 I'm a life coach and I've learnt the law of attraction in my 30s. (LOA= Law of attraction =The Secret to manifesting  abundance, dreams and many more...)  I used to wonder why are most Muslims poor (showcased by news and media) And I wanted to help myself and others as well and so I learnt lots from many teachers from various parts of the world... (U may wonder what is the evidence that all I've learnt actually work? How abundant am I? I'm not a materialistic person. I don't collect land, homes, investments portfolio, toys like cars etc but I collect experiences in exploration.  To date, I've wandered about 50 countries and hope to Continue till all 196+in this lifetime InsyaAllah. And travel =$$$$. This is the only thing, I can n hope to share: abundance in dreams. )  If you are new to law of attraction, watch or read the book, the Secret .  Anyway, most of my LOA teachers' religions and basic foundation are of Christianity (i don't discriminate in a w
