Memorise Surah Mulk

Opening Verse

Memorisation aids:
This verse has 3 learning segments, and 2 practice (P) stages.

• To master each learning segment, recite and repeat it until you feel fluent.
• For each practice stage (marked with "P"), read and recite it at least 100 times. Make sure to read the letters each time rather than relying on memory — this active reading will help embed the verse into your long-term memory.

Translation:
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful

Explanation:
I begin with every name that belongs to Allah, because the word “Ism” (Name) is Mufrad Mudaf (singular, genitive) and therefore inclusive of all Names (Al-Asmaa Al-Husna). The ‘B’ [بِ] in Bismillah is a ‘B’ [ب] of Isti’anah (استعانة), which means ‘seeking help’. So, we are empowering ourselves by seeking Allah’s help before starting an action.
