Life gets tough sometimes, but that doesn’t mean your Qur’an journey has to stop. With a few simple strategies, you can stay consistent, even on the hardest days.
Some days, we’re full of energy, excited to learn. Other days, we’re tired, stressed, and can barely find the time to pray, let alone study. But remember, Allah sees your efforts. Even when it’s hard, the small steps you take count immensely in the eyes of Allah. So how can we make sure our Qur’an learning remains steady, even on those challenging days?
Tip 1: Prioritize Dua Ask Allah for strength. A sincere dua can make all the difference. Pray for the ability to stay consistent and for your heart to remain attached to the Qur’an. Ask for barakah in your time so that even on the busiest days, you can still carve out a moment to connect with His words.
Tip 2: Adjust Your Expectations It’s okay if you can’t give as much time to learning on some days. Life isn’t always going to be perfect, and that’s fine. If you can only read one ayah instead of ten, that’s still progress. Don’t be too hard on yourself—every bit counts, and Allah rewards even the smallest efforts.
Tip 3: Find Joy in Small Wins Maybe today you didn’t get through the whole lesson, but you learned a new word or corrected a mistake in your recitation. Celebrate these small wins. Each one is a step closer to understanding the Qur’an better.
Consistency is key, but it’s not about perfection. It’s about perseverance, even when it’s hard. Let’s make a promise to ourselves to keep going, no matter what, because the rewards of staying connected with the Qur’an are priceless.
