THREAD: Here's a few #Seerah books and related works that I would recommend you all to read!

1) The Sealed Nectar by Safiur Rahman Mubarakpuri - pretty detailed and is a great all-round book. For a more concise version refer to When The Moon Split by the same author. 2) Prophet of Mercy by Abul Hasan 'Ali Nadwi - great contemporary work which touches on different aspects of history too.

3) Muhammad: Man and Prophet by Adil Salahi - another relevant and contemporary work which gives one a detailed insight into the Seerah.

THREAD: Top tips on memorising on the Qur'an this Ramadan and beyond.

Alhamdulillah almost 12 years ago I was blessed to have completed my memorisation (hifdh) of the Qur'an and here are a few things that helped me... 1) My personal technique was just to read the portion I wanted to memorise repetitively the night before (not attempting to memorise), then wake up in the morning to memorise it. The key here is first you familiarise yourself with it, then you memorise. Don't rush the hifdh part.
