Memorizing the Quran is the project of life
Memorizing the quran by heart is a very important matter but it is not alone our aim.
Despite the fact that memorizing all of the Quran or parts from it is one of the milestones of the approach, but the required memorization is what the Prophet`s companions, may Allah be pleased with them, practiced: they used to receive five or ten verses from the Quran but they would not move to other verses until they success in enduring their meanings and rulings, and then memorizing the Quran according to this approach is a project that extends to the whole life not a limited aim for one or more years.
