Super easy approach to memorize names of surah. I made a story to help me relate one surah from another by the meaning of their names and themes.

1. Memorize Surah Sequence
QURAN - Super Easy Approach

2. ABOUT
Goal - 1MINUTES EVERYDAY
- Develop Quran Connection
- Become independent, utilize our capabilities and please Allah swt.
Why
-Why not, right!
To familiarize oneself with the sequence of the surah and its themes
- easier than learning names of the presidents or learning the names of the
street.
- 1 minutes everyday, not more.

3. Concept - Quran GPS

NAMES OF THE SURAH

- THE OPENING
- This surah OPENS the door to the Quran

surah.
* 1 minute goal accomplished!When do you “OPEN” this treasure?

5. Baqarah
The cow
“But I am not an animal, I am a human being!”
Okay, then ... find your identity in this surah. We have been given distinct
identity, traits, a way of thinking etc. Best of all, we have been taught names;
taught to read and write; and we certainly know how to talk languages.
But this surah is about “cows”?!
Yes, I agree. And cows can’t do any of this, yet humans worship(ed) them!!!!!!!!

6. Ali’Imran
Family of Imran
- A family just like we all have a family.

repentance in the history of mankind.

hopelessness; personal struggles; value and hope in the life Allah has
given us.

14. Hud
Hud
- Nation of Hud is another example of people who don’t care and don’t ask
for repentance.

was born out of Adam’s ribs!!! Peace be upon them all.
