The Ramadan Hifz Plan: 30 Days, 30 Ayat (or More)

Answer first

A Ramadan hifz plan should be modest, consistent, and tied to specific times of day — Fajr for new material, post-Asr for review, post-Taraweeh for listening. Most memorizers benefit from 1–2 new ayat per day with aggressive review of existing material, not a rush to finish new Juz.

A realistic day

Sehri (pre-Fajr): One new ayah, slow, deliberate. 10 min.

After Fajr: Review yesterday’s new ayah. 5 min.

Dhuha: Passive listening to your current surah. Optional.

After Asr: Full review queue. 15 min.

After Taraweeh: Listen to tomorrow’s ayat. Don’t memorize. Just absorb. 5 min.

Why this works

Your willpower is highest before eating. Use it for new material.

Your body has reserves post-Asr; review is easier than new.

Taraweeh already exposes you to the Quran — let it do its work without pressure.

What to skip

Heroic new-Juz pacing that burns you out by day 15.

Pulling all-nighters to memorize in the last 10 nights.

Competing with others’ Ramadan plans.

The last 10 nights

Pivot to revision, not new material. These nights are for ibaadah — don’t turn them into a hifz marathon.
