Al-Insomniyya

Surah Kahf redone. But this time retain everything. Making a lot of notes in writing pad so not always blogging. Weak old pages = generally stay weak unless you really spend some time with them on  a particular day. As do 'weak endings'. Baqarah all in one go today = 55mins 97% accuracy alhamdulillah.

Page 51 memorised today. (P2 of Kahf) All of Baqarah done in one go for first time, 57mins. Juz 1 = 18mins Juz 2 = by 48 Juz 3 = by 58

Self discipline = doing what you know you have to do, when you should do it whether you feel like it or not. A succcessful person is one who doesn't give up where others would. Today or last night rather had to work a nightmare 14hr shift. Pretty much continous work. Got home Friday morning had breakfast slept few hours then left from bham 6pm to 9.30pm to London. By the time had dinner and talked with relatives etc it was midnight. I hadn't received current juz today let alone memorised today's juz. With a day like today surely it's another one to mark off as an impossible day to do my hifz. But at midnight despite my eyes burning for sleep I decided to force myself to JUST GET STARTED. Alhamdulillah I revised current juz once and then memorised today's page. Whole thing barely took an hour. Alhamdulillah. It's efforts like this and forcing that consistency which will determine whether I succeed or not inshaAllah.

Juz 1 and 2 revised. So on Juz 3 now, 5 pages in. My system for reviewing this current juz is to try and reduce each page to 1min or at least 1.20 - basically to get it fluent. To do this with each page of current juz and then join them together. Finally to recite what I've learnt so far of this Juz (minus today's page) 3 times. I've done this since the start of the Juz. Today's timings: To do as above for p42-45: 1hr 20mins  (97% efficiency). P42: 3mins P43: 6mins P44: 13mins P45: 18mins? P42-45 All in one go: 1) 5.59 2) 5.33 3) 5.23 Juz 1+2 recited.

P44 done. 58mins.

Had to do 10x to get it down to under 1 min. Albeit page I did (very badly) few months ago. And also half was Aytul Qursi. But let's see if this new system of hammering every page from the day after its learnt to under a minute works.
