5 Surprising Health Benefits of Memorizing the Quran
We already know that there are many spiritual benefits and rewards that Allah SWT has promised those who memorize the Quran.

In addition to spiritual benefits and rewards, memorizing the Quran can also bring many other health benefits from mental health to physical health. Here’s a list of five health benefits you can experience, Insha’Allah, on your Quran memorization journey.
Printing of the Holy Quran: The Compilation
The Quran was revealed to Prophet Muhammad (saw) over a period of 23 years, beginning from 609 to 632 CE. Coincidentally, this was the same decade of the same century that printing technology developed.

Up to this day, both the Quran and the printed word has influenced the course of human history. In this blog post series, we will explore how the spread of Islam coincides with the development of printing technology, leading to the mass production of the printed Quran (or Mushaf) that we have today.
Interesting Facts of Hafiz: Abu Bakr as-Siddiq (ra)
Abu Bakr as-Siddiq (ra) is the closest friend to Prophet Muhammad (saw) and one of the ten companions who has been promised Paradise. He was the first from outside of the Prophet’s (saw) family to embrace Islam. His kinship with the Prophet (saw) was further cemented through the ties of marriage, when he had the honour of being the Prophet’s father in law through the Prophet’s marriage to his daughter, Aisha (ra).

In this post, we look at five interesting facts and stories of Abu Bakr’s (ra) life.
