How to Memorize the Quran Online: Hifz Programs in the USA

Technology has transformed the way Muslims around the world engage with the Holy Quran. For Muslims in the USA, the rise of online Quran academies has made it easier than ever to pursue Hifz-ul-Quran (memorization of the Quran) from the comfort of home. Whether you are a parent seeking structured Quran memorization classes for your child, a professional aiming to balance work with learning, or a revert Muslim eager to strengthen your faith, online Hifz programs provide the flexibility and guidance you need.
In this article, we will explore how to memorize the Quran online, why online Quran academies in the USA are becoming increasingly popular, and what makes a successful Hifz journey.
Online Quran academies offer flexible class timings that fit into the busy schedules of both adults and children. Unlike traditional madrassas with fixed hours, you can choose morning, evening, or weekend classes according to your availability.
The best online Quran academies in the USA employ experienced male and female tutors who are Hafiz-ul-Quran and experts in Tajweed. Many tutors have Ijazah certifications from well-known Islamic institutions, ensuring that students learn with precision.
Memorizing the Quran requires focus and attention. Online platforms offer one-on-one live sessions via Zoom or Skype, allowing teachers to tailor lessons to each student's pace, memory capacity, and learning style.
For parents in the USA, safety is a top priority. Online Quran schools provide a secure environment for children to memorize the Quran under professional supervision without having to commute.
Select a reliable online Quran academy in the USA that offers structured Hifz programs, certified tutors, and regular progress tracking. Look for academies that provide free trial classes so you can evaluate their teaching style.
Hifz is a journey of patience. Decide whether you want to memorize the entire Quran, a few Ajza (parts), or specific Surahs. Having a clear goal will help you stay motivated.
Daily revision is key to Quran memorization. Online tutors design personalized schedules to help students balance new lessons (Sabak), revision of recent lessons (Sabqi), and long-term revision (Manzil).
Memorizing without Tajweed can lead to mistakes. Many online Quran academies in the USA combine Hifz programs with Tajweed training, ensuring that students not only memorize but also recite with proper pronunciation.

Big brother of girl who drowned in Belmar reeling from sister's death, 'I wish I was there'

BELMAR -- Syed Rahmaan will always cherish the walk in the park he took with his younger sister Sameeha on Monday, Aug. 11. "That walk we had on Monday, four days before her passing, it was like God's plan," he said. Thirteen-year-old Sameeha Sultana tragically drowned in the ocean off Belmar on Aug. 15, apparently caught in a rip current. Their 12-year- sister, Sumaiyah, was rescued. The family's grief is tremendous, Syed said. "I know it wasn't my fault but at the same time you always have regret. I wish I was there," he said. "I feel like that was my one job, take care of siblings and I wasn't able to do that." Even though she was just 13, Syed said his sister, Sameeha, was already 'inspiring.' "At 12 years old, she was advocating for Muslim rights and was trying to establish a prayer room for her middle school so that her and her friends were able to pray," he said. But for 20-year-old Syed, he will forever be grateful for the time the siblings shared on Aug. 11. For the first time in a long time, Syed said he and his sisters spent quality time together: they went out to eat and sightsee in New York City before heading back home to Jersey City to walk around Lincoln Park. "For like two hours she was just drilling me with questions and I was just answering them with as much wisdom as I could provide," Rahmaan said. Sameeha was quite talkative during their trip, peppering her older brother with questions and conversation. "I don't really know how it could get better than that,' he said, looking back on the day. A few days later, Sameeha was in Belmar on an all-girls trip with her Young Muslims group. Young Muslims is a national organization providing the youth with an Islamic atmosphere where they can form bonds with their peers and become comfortable with Islam and its teachings. Her brother has been a member of the Young Muslims since he was 14. The Belmar Police Department had received several 911 calls of a swimmer in distress off the Eighth Avenue beach. When the police arrived, Thomas Walsh had already rescued the younger sister, but the 13-year-old was still missing. She was eventually found, at approximately 7:29 pm, unresponsive in the water off the Seventh Avenue beach, according to police. The 13-year old was removed from the water, where Belmar lifeguards, Belmar EMS, Wall Township EMS, and Hackensack Meridian Paramedics attempted life-saving efforts. The victim was then transported to Jersey Shore University Medical Center in Neptune, where she was pronounced deceased. "I have so many regrets,' Syed said, saying his sister's death showed him how much he misunderstood his siblings. "You don't realize how much you love somebody until they are gone from your life,' Syed said. 'I realize how clean her heart was and how I completely misunderstood every attempt she made to get closer to me.' Syed said it is just their immediate family here in New Jersey. All his extended family is overseas. "Me, my Mom, my Dad and my sisters, well it is sister now, (are) in America," he said. "So the fact that over 1,000, almost 2,000 people came to her funeral it really shows how strong and tight knit our community is." Family friend Ramazan Zuberi, 54, of Seacaucus said the burial on Sunday "was an extremely painful day.' He questioned why the oldest person supervising the Young Muslims trip to Belmar that day was just 18, calling it 'poor judgment.' Zuberi believes there should have been more adults there and the trip should have happened while lifeguards were on duty. "In light of this tragic incident, I believe it is vital to reconnect with the community and work together to ensure the safety and well-being of the younger members and youth groups with the goal of preventing such tragedies in the future," Zuberi said. The Young Muslims organization did not immediately respond to a request for comment. As his family mourns, Syed said that as Muslims, they are trusting in God's plan as a way of finding peace through acceptance. "Unfortunately, the truth of the matter is we treat strangers better than we treat our own family. I learned that the hard way,' he said. "I learned how to be merciful through her passing. It sounds so cliche but it is the reality of the situation."

In Kenya's capital, a new Rastafari temple shows the movement's endurance

NAIROBI, Kenya -- At a recent opening of the newest Rastafari place of worship just outside Kenya's capital, some of the faithful gathered to sing rhythmic songs, read Scripture and exchange teachings on the appropriate way to live. The rare event — opening a tabernacle made of wooden poles and roofed with iron sheets — illustrated the community's expanding ranks in a country where until recently Rastafari was not considered a legitimate religion. Things changed in 2019 with a court ruling in favor of a petitioner who cited discrimination when her school demanded that she cut her dreadlocks, often preferred by those who follow the Rastafari religion. The student's refusal to cut her locks had resulted in her expulsion from school, but the High Court ruled Rastafari was a legitimate religion that should be protected, a ruling later affirmed by the Supreme Court. Across the world, the faithful are known as Rastafarians, members of the movement launched in 1930 with the coronation in Ethiopia of Ras Tafari Mekonnen as Emperor Haile Selassie I. Rastafarians believe Selassie was the final incarnation of the biblical Jesus, and during his reign many Rastafarians made pilgrimage to the Horn of Africa nation. For Rastafarians, Ethiopia was a symbol of pride for its unbroken resistance to colonizers and Selassie was Jah, the deity. Selassie was removed from power in a 1974 coup by a military junta. He died a year later. But the movement inspired by his rise to power in Ethiopia survives in countries ranging from the United States to Ghana. It is unclear how many people identify as Rastafari in Kenya, a country dominated by Christians and Muslims. At least 30 Rastafarians came to the tabernacle opening in Ruai, some 25 kilometers (15 miles) east of Nairobi, last month. In Kenya, the movement is set up under three 'mansions' or branches: Nyabinghi, Bobo Ashanti and The Twelve tribes of Israel. The 'mansions' represent small groups of Rastafarians who meet to worship together. Unlike traditional places of worship that are housed in architect-designed permanent structures, a Rastafari tabernacle is built with wooden poles, roofed with iron sheets and decorated in the unmistakable Rastafari colors of red, yellow and green. Rastafarians around the world have a reputation for their unique Afrocentric spirituality, and they are generally known to be peace advocates. They oppose oppression and gravitate to music and art. The Jamaican reggae singer Bob Marley was a famous Rastafari. There are challenges, including those that stem from misunderstandings about the religion. Across East Africa, Rastafarians are often stereotyped as lazy and indulging in prohibited substances like marijuana. Known to Rastafarians as ganja, marijuana is an important item in religious ceremonies. The community has been growing in Kenya, attracting mostly young people. Ng'ang'a Njuguna, a Rastafari elder in the Nyabinghi mansion of Kenya, describes Rastafari as not just a religion but a way of life. 'It is a spiritual way of life,' he said. 'That is why we connect with nature, we connect with animals, we connect with every living being because Rastafari is all about the spiritual world.' Fedrick Wangai, 26, is one of the newest members. He converted six years ago in what he described as his emancipation from Western religion. 'I grew up in a Christian setup and I ended up questioning the faith because it was made by the white man who was the colonial master of my forefathers,' he said. 'Growing up for me in that religion was very difficult for me because I believe it brought division to the Black people.' Christine Wanjiru, a 58-year-old who became a Rastafarian in 1994, making her one of the oldest members of her community, recalled that being one once was difficult as it often attracted discrimination and stigma. 'Back then, there was a lot of stigma and discrimination against Rastafari,' she said. 'Most people never saw Rastafari as a good thing or a spiritual thing, from family members to the government, the police, all round. But we endured and we are here today.' She added, however, that since then 'more brethren have received this light and have come to Rastafari.' Ng'ang'a Njuguna, an elder in the Nyabinghi mansion, says the movement has been growing largely because of interest from young Kenyans. 'They have that fire, they like how Rasta people carry themselves, how Rasta people live,' he said. 'Our diet, art and skills.' ___
