Beginning My Quran Memorization Journey In Ramadan

The moment I decided to memorize a surah on my own one Ramadan, set me on a course to gradually improve my Arabic reading and tajweed, and eventually to memorize the entire Quran over the course of seven years. Read on to hear how I started my Quran memorization journey in Ramadan years ago. My father and I were sitting in the car on the way to tarawih when I was in high school, listening to Nasir alGhamidi's recitation of Surat al Mu'minoon. Towards the end of the surah, he cries so intensely that he gasps, his recitation completely stopping as he bawls over and over again.
