Qur'an

Q: Can you give me some tips for memorizing the Quran and how to revise it.

Q: I am newly married. When I kiss or touch my wife, a little amount of semen comes out or you can say it is mazi. In this condition can I recite Surah Yaseen, Surah Rahman, Surah Mulk by heart. Not by touching any books. If I don't recite it everyday there may be some chances to be forgotten.

Q: Can you please comment on the following Hadith as we can know to a certain percentage when it will rain and we can know what is in the womb, even the gender of the child. Also, can't some part of the future be known by astrology and palmistry, etc. Although, I know it is totally haraam.

Narrated Ibn 'Umar: Allah's Apostle ﷺ said, "Keys of the unseen knowledge are five which nobody knows but Allah:
* nobody knows what will happen tomorrow;
* nobody knows what is in the womb;
* nobody knows what he will gain tomorrow;
* nobody knows at what place he will die;
* and nobody knows when it will rain."

Q: Is it permissible to touch the Quraan without wudhu and what is the punishment for touching without wudhu?

Q: At the hifz madrasah I go to, we have exams where the students have to read Quraan and will get a mark based on tajweed, etc. Depending on what mark the students achieved, they will get a prize. Is such a type of prize halaal?

Q: I want to know if I can listen to the Quraan-e-Kareem via handsfree while studying or before sleeping as I live in a hostel and there used to be a lot of noise. Before that, I used to listen to music but now I know that music is haraam and the devil's Quraan. Therefore, I want to quit listening to music but please advise me if I can listen to the Quraan while studing and before sleeping via handsfree?

Q: I saw someone quote a translation from the Quran ‘successful are the believers’. Is it not ‘Successful indeed are the believers’?
