By Shannen Espelien Leave a Comment

Concrete will – this is a phrase that I think will stick with me forever now that I’ve heard it once. Care Bear has been listening to Nouman Ali Khan’s tafseer lectures for the past two weeks for her tafseer lessons. I instructed her to take detailed notes, and today I had her teach me […]

Qur’an Memorization Through Puberty

By Shannen Espelien Leave a Comment

We’ve already talked about how to get through puberty alive in the past, but memorizing Qur’an with a girl in puberty presents slightly different challenges given she will have her period from time to time. Since she shouldn’t be handling the mushaf (moos-haf, the Qur’an in its original Arabic text) directly, what are we to […]
