Elite Stars of Ramadan: Memoirs of A hafiz

M a Fattaah Muhammad

This book is a means of inspiration to continue the virtuous practices of Ramadan after Ramadan. It tells how the Month of the Quran led Mr. Muhammad to become a hafiz of the Quran and a Quran teacher. The writer provides basic introduction methods of reading, memorizing, reciting, and retaining the Quran.This book talks about the story of a hafiz in a brief sense while outlining the following: -How to easily learn and keep the Quran-Means which are commonly used to prepare Muslim children for the month of Ramadan -lessons given by prophet Muhammad (PBUH) to his companions regarding the elite merits of this blessed monthIt also creates a strong argument about the appropriate way to follow the traditions of the Quran and makes a connection between the situation faced by the ideal hafiz of today in our communities and those who lived during and around the time of the Prophet.The author aims to bring people of today to reflect more on the mentality of those early believers in accord with authentic narrations. He makes the reader consider the era of the righteously guided kalifas Abu Bakr, Umar, Uthman, and Ali ( may Allah be pleased with them), in dealing with the affairs of the early believers, and demonstrates how such wisdom has been able to be used today by the hafiz.Finally, he quotes various renowned people of the Quran still living today to reinforce his point of keeping the art of Quranic memorization. This literature is a minor work compared to the contributions of those who have given their lives in living according to the Quran. And to quote the famous saying from authentic narrations, All credit is due to Allah. And any mistakes found in this literature are due to my own error. And I pray Allah forgives me for them. Aameen.ArgumentAbdulFattaah Muhammad has always been one to take note of what really made him an ideal example of a hafiz. It has only been twenty-seven years since he completed his first reading of the Quran from memory and was given the title of a hafiz. What does it take to become a hafiz, and what has it taken to maintain the memorization of this miraculous word (the entire Quran is just a word from God) of Allah (God)? And why is it considered an honor in the Islamic faith to memorize the Quran?The author gives answers to the above questions but also describes why his belief of doing so differs from others’ in this industry today. He believes that memorizing the word of Allah is simple and easily done for anyone who commits to often reciting any portions of it. He also dismisses corporal punishment and challenges his colleagues and other teachers of the Quran who still practice such methods of discipline while teaching the Quran.The author, however, finds it essential to adopt such behaviors as mentioned in the book titled A Million Stars to Self-Empowerment (volumes 1 and 2), which include-but are not limited to-consistency, positivity, proactiveness, patience, humility, a sense of ease, a sense of empathy, responsibility, maturity, and time consciousness, just to name a few.He also suggests that his methods go back all the way to the final prophet of Allah (Muhammad, Alayhi'Ssalaam) and that many will see the wisdom in applying such methods despite any setbacks they have faced in the past in memorizing the Quran. The most significant point of difference the author has with his beloved constituents is the basis of the memorization of the Quran. Although many find it to be the greatest honor, Mr. Muhammad describes it as the least the Quran offers to its readers. He also challenges the majority opinion of the Muslim communities in western countries which discourages the youths’ taking on Quranic professions. He makes a case stressing that there is no better profession for the younger generation than Quranic occupations and provides ideas, thoughts, scenarios, and evidences from past and present Islamic traditions.
