[97] Surah Al-Qadr mind map

Al-Qadr is five verses about one night, and it says three things: the Qur'an came down in it, it is worth more than eighty-three years, and the angels descend until dawn. Nothing in it is a command — it is entirely description.

The surah never names the date, which is why the night is sought across ten and not marked on a calendar.

Common questions

How long does it take to memorise Surah Al-Qadr mind map?
At 3 ayahs a day, its 5 ayahs take 2 study days. Change the pace above and every date on this page updates.
Do I have to memorise it in order?
Most teachers keep the surah's own order, because the 2 blocks below follow one another for a reason. The map matters more than the sequence: knowing which block you are inside is what stops the similar passages blurring together.
Do I need a teacher for this?
You can memorise from a map alone, but almost nobody corrects their own recitation. A teacher hears the mistakes you cannot, and holds you to the schedule you just set.

A plan is easier to keep when someone is holding you to it

Book a first lesson with a Quran teacher and bring this schedule with you. Many of our teachers offer that first lesson free.
