## How much can an adult memorize?

At one page a day, five days a week, the 604 pages of the Madinah Mushaf take about
two years and four months; at half a page, about four years and eight months. Most
working adults start with four lines to half a page a day and spend more of their
time on revision. Our [Arabic guide](https://elquranonline.com/articles/how-long-to-memorize-quran/)
has the full table by daily amount.

## Which memorization methods do we use?

 Memorization methods and who they suit  |  Method |  How it works |  Suits |  
   |  Listen first |  Listen to the passage from a skilled reciter several times |  Learners who memorize by ear, and those who mispronounce |  
 |  One Mushaf edition |  Always memorize from the same printed Mushaf |  Learners who remember the look of the page |  
 |  Split and link |  Split the page into chunks, then link the end of each chunk to the start of the next |  Everyone |  
 |  Write it out |  Write the passage from memory, then check it against the Mushaf |  Learners who mix up similar words |

## How do I build a plan around my time?

Example for 20 minutes a day: 10 minutes of new memorization and 10 of revision.
Recent pages are revised every day, older pages are spread across the week. The 
teacher adjusts the amount every month based on what the recitation tests show.

## What happens in a class?

The teacher first hears your new portion, then your revision for the day, then reads
the next passage with you and corrects it until you can memorize it alone before
the next class.

Every week you get a short written report: what was covered, recurring mistakes,
and next week’s goal.
