This book will equip all readers with the information, motivation and techniques necessary in order to begin, continue with, and complete the memorization of the Qur'an, eliminating thereby the common excuses and reasons for not memorizing.
It is for parents and children, old and young, Arabs and non-Arabs, religious and irreligious, motivated and unmotivated.
Why the Number Is 114
One for each surah of the Qur'an, which is a small piece of design that tells you something about the book: it is meant to be lived with rather than read once.
What Actually Stops People
Almost never ability. It is usually one of a small number of obstacles — not knowing where to begin, having no system for revision, losing what was memorized and concluding the whole effort was wasted, or believing that hifz belongs to children and Arabic speakers.
Each of those is a solvable problem, and treating them as excuses to be dismantled rather than reasons to be sympathized with is the correct approach.

Revision. Almost everyone who fails at hifz fails at holding what they have rather than at learning something new, and the discipline of returning to old material is what separates those who finish from those who stop.
Who It Is For
Anyone who has intended to memorize the Qur'an for years and not started. Also parents supporting a child in hifz, who frequently need the system more than the child does.
