One of the specific features of the honorable Qur`an is that it is a Book that can be committed to memory. In Arabic this process is termed hifz al-Quran and the person who memorizes the Qur’an in its entirety is referred to as hafiz al-Qur’an, which could be translated as the guardian of the Qur’an. In Bosnia the process of
memorization of the Qur’an is termed hifz or hafizluk and a person who commits the entire Qur’an to memory receives a noble title of hafiz.
Have you ever asked yourself?
· Why does one memorize the Qur’an?
· Who was the first hafiz of the Qur’an?
· Do the people who have memorized the Qur`an possess some special characteristics?
· What are the obligations of the hafiz towards the Qur`an and the ummah?
