Parent and Student Guide
Three Components of Hifdh
- Complete all three components of their daily work
- Read actively at home for assigned time (2 hours every night)
- Avoid things that will negatively affect Hifdh
- Listen/Mark students’ lessons
- Ensure students complete all three parts of their daily work
- Keep parents & administration updated about student progress
- Ensure their child reads at home (2 hours every night).
- Create a conducive environment/schedule at home for their child’s Hifdh
- Keep in regular contact with the teacher to measure child’s progress
The Three Daily Assignments
This is the first and most important assignment of each school day. Students are expected to recite an assigned portion of what they have already memorized in previous Juz/Para (between half to one Juz based on their current status) every weekday. This lesson is also called ‘Manzil’. ‘Dour’ is a revision of all the juz/paras a student has memorized.
Without reciting the Amukta/Manzil students will NOT be allowed to recite Para-Sabaq/Sabki or Sabaq.
This is the third and final assignment of the day. It consists of the newly memorized lesson after the Para-Sabaq/Sabki. As one can see, the correct and timely recitation of Amukta/Manzil and Para-Sabaq/Sabki is the ONLY way the student can consistently progress in their Hifdh of the Qur’an.
Homework: Students should study 2 hours at home every night.
