Here are a few tips you should follow when learning the Quran remotely:
1. Make and Purify Your Intentions
Actions in Islam are judged by intentions. So, ask yourself, “why do I want to learn the Quran?.” If we want to successfully learn the Quran, offline or remotely, it is important that our sincere intentions come before our learning. Make your intentions for seeking the knowledge of the Quran as solely to please Allah (ta’ala) and not for any other benefit.
2. Seek Authentic Sources and Teachers
One of the upsides of learning the Quran remotely is the chance of running into people who don’t have the authentic knowledge, but pretend that they do. Ours is a religion that warns us against misinformation because this can lead us to believe in, and practice things that are contrary to the teachings of Islam.
3. Commitment and Consistency
The place where many people fail in remote learning is commitment. One minute you are fired up and eager to attend coaching sessions, and the next minute, you find excuses to give up. But that doesn’t have to be the case for someone who is learning the Quran. We cannot be passive during our studies, so it takes a deep level of commitment to stick with your coach.
Also, practice is an extremely important part of learning the Quran. Gaining the knowledge is one thing, but having the knowledge stay with you forever is another. Anyone who wants to learn the Quran and be able to remember it should be ready to revise every single day based on the instruction of a coach. You will be taught to set aside some minutes every day to revise recently taught portions.
