Q.R.G.



Quran Reading Group *updated


WHAT: InshAllah we want to push/remind students to read the Quran on a daily basis. Unfortunately, most Muslims don't pay much attention to the recitation of the Quran outside of Ramadan. For this reason, the Quran Reading Group is here to support and remind you about your reading every week.
How does it work?

Basically, you look at the list of juz available for recitation and put your juz under comment section with your name OR you can send an email to Marwa and Saba. They will post your name next to the juz you volunteered to read. If there are more people and all 30 juz are taken, we can start another reading circle. It is up to you how much Quran you want to read weekly. Again, we are here to remind you and push you to daily recite the Quran.

Note: On the 7th day of the week, a reminder is sent out to the group about their reading. If someone can't finish their reading then we will make a general call to the entire group to read your juz (shame on you!).

Once first 30 juz (entire Quran) are taken by people (it could be two students who volunteer to read 15 juz or 30 people who volunteer to read a juz, or more or less...you get the idea), we can start another circle, and so on and so forth.


FAQs:

Qs.How do I volunteer to read?
Ans. You can put your juz no. with your name in comments section below. OR send an email to both Marwa marwa831@eden.rutgers.edu & Saba sabayh@gmail.com They will put your name next to the juz(s) you volunteered to read.

Qs. How many juz/para I have to read?
Ans. Each person picks the amount of Quran he/she can read... 1, 2, 10 juz... doesn't matter. Even if a person wants to read less i.e. 1/2 a juz per week, he simply has to find another person to read the other half. See example juz 30 below.Qs. Do I read the same juz/para every week?Ans. No, you can pick another juz and send an email for that particular week or put your juz number in comment section.

Qs. What if I cannot read the Quran (OMG!) in Arabic?
Ans. Relax, if you cannot read it in Arabic, just listen to the Quran - (reading & listening has the same reward). We will not stop you from participating :)

Hey Saher,

Are you somehow related to Mr. Faraz?

Melody said...

Salaam alaikum!

Jazaak Allah Khair. I think this is a great idea :)

When/How do we let you know when we have completed the juz?

Bismillah,

Bint Mohamed,
I look at weekly Quran reading as my promise to my brothers/sisters.

"And you will be asked about your promise" (Quran).

If one is not able to read the juz then he/she should notify Saba OR Marwa...You don't have to notify anyone if you are done reading your juz.



BTW, due to popular demand, I think next week we should start another circle of readers.

Please make sure you read your assigned juz by Friday.
