Qur'an

Q: I am a Muslim convert. I converted to Islam 1 and half months ago Alhamdullilah.

I have a question about reading the Quran. I want to make it my habit. I would like to do it in a way that is the most beneficial for me. I don't know Arabic, I read an English translation by Dr. Mustafa Khattab, so reading random surahs (as my friend recommended to me) doesn't work for me because I can't remember its content. It would be better for me to read it by topics, so I can focus on one topic at at a time and do notes, remember more.

Is there any particular order of topics I should follow? If not official, maybe then your personal? I'd like to go from things that are general, to laws and details etc. In my Quran there is an Index that I could use to look for exact ayas.

Q: Can I read Quraan while lying in bed? I am not ill.

Q: Were all 7 Ahruf (without exception) and all The Mutawaatir & Mashhur Qira’aat (without exception) revealed by Allah Ta'ala to Jibril (alaihis salaam) who delivered the Revelation to Sayyidunaa Muhammad (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) and Allah Ta'ala revealed it to Sayyidunaa Muhammad (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) and Jibril (alaihis salaam)?

Q: Is the recitation of Surah Muzzammil for difficulty and hardship authentic? I read that it can be recited 41 times.

Also, what are the virtues of reciting Surah Yaseen 41 times for a task?

Which one of the two is more preferable?

Q: My husband and I have been blessed with a baby alhamdulillah. We would like the baby to have finished memorising the Quraan by an early age if Allah wills.

What steps can we take to ensure that the child can begin learning and memorising from an early age? What brain foods would also be good for the child and mother as I’m nursing currently.

Q: I am a student of knowledge who studies in South Africa. Often, when I arrive at the airport after a long flight, the need arises to use the toilet. My carry on bag etc. contains Quraan and other books as well and its not safe to leave the bags outside the bathroom. Am I allowed to bring it into the toilet?

Q: Is there anything special to read after each surah, when making a khatam, when one comes to surah Duha?

Q: I have some questions about stop signs in the Quraan.

1. If لا comes at the end of an aayat, can I stop?

2. Will it permissible to not stop at ط and ج signs?

3. Will it be permissible to not stop at ق and قف signs?

Q: I teach kids Maktab and they have Amma Para Kitaabs. When I have my Haidh am I allowed to touch the Kitaabs? Is it okay to touch the edges/white parts of the page where there aren’t any words, or is it the same as Qur’aan – Am I not allowed to touch it at all?
