My Journey Completing the Quran

1. Why This Goal?
This summer, I set the goal of completing the Quran. I was inspired by a strong desire to deepen my connection with Allah and strengthen my faith. With more time and fewer distractions during the break, I saw it as the perfect opportunity to commit to this spiritual journey. To me, finishing the Quran wasn’t just about reading every page — it was about growing closer to Allah, understanding His words, and making real changes in my heart and life.

2. Planning & Routine
I planned to read one juz (section) a day, dividing the Quran into 30 parts to finish in one month. Sometimes I adjusted my pace when life got busy, but I always made time to catch up. I usually read after Fajr or at night before sleeping — quiet times that helped me focus and reflect. Building this daily routine made reading feel natural and fulfilling.

3. Key Moments
Surah Yusuf and Surah Ar-Rahman really stood out to me. Surah Yusuf's story of patience and forgiveness touched my heart, and Surah Ar-Rahman reminded me of Allah’s countless blessings and mercy. The repeated verse — "So which of the favors of your Lord will you deny?" — struck me deeply every time I read it. It made me pause and reflect on how much I take for granted and how constantly Allah’s mercy surrounds us.

4. People & Support
My family was a big source of encouragement. Sometimes we read together or shared thoughts about certain verses. I also talked to a friend who was on a similar journey, and we helped motivate each other. Having someone to talk to made the experience more meaningful and helped me stay accountable.

5. Tools & Resources
I used a Quran with translation to help me understand the meaning of the verses, and I listened to audio recitations to stay focused. Tafsir videos and summaries helped me go deeper into the meaning, especially for chapters I found harder to interpret. These tools made the reading more engaging and spiritually enriching.

6. Reflection & Impact
Completing the Quran has left a lasting impact on me. I feel more peaceful, connected to my purpose, and aware of how I live my daily life. I’ve learned powerful lessons about patience, mercy, forgiveness, and trust in Allah’s plan. This experience has motivated me to continue reading the Quran regularly, and I now plan to go back and study it more slowly with deeper reflection and tafsir. I’m also thinking about starting some memorization, even if it’s just a few short surahs.

Bonus: Reflections & Duas
One of my favorite verses is: "So which of the favors of your Lord will you deny?" (Surah Ar-Rahman 55:13).
This verse repeated throughout the surah reminded me of Allah’s constant gifts — both the ones we see and the ones we overlook. It helped me become more grateful and aware of His mercy in every moment.
This journey inspired me to make more heartfelt duas — for guidance, strength, and to stay close to the Quran always. I also noticed that I became more patient and thoughtful in how I speak and act. It’s a change I’m grateful for and want to keep building on.
