HOW TO GET OUT OF LAZY TO MEMORIZE AND RESPECT MEMORY OF THE AL-QUR'AN

 Here are some ways to get rid of lazy memorization/muraja'ah feelings that might be applied immediately:

 1. Drowsiness often results in a feeling of laziness in muraja'ah/memorization. We can avoid this by taking a shower or just washing our face, or by eating thinly sliced raw ginger and sprinkled with sugar.

 2. How to overcome laziness can also be overcome by changing your sitting position, especially when you are reading. In this case, you can try standing for a while when you have been sitting for too long and make the learning atmosphere boring. But in this case, try to avoid the position from sitting to lying down, because this can make it too much to fall asleep. 

3. Moving rooms when bored is one solution to overcoming laziness. In this case, you can try moving from the reading room to another place. Either to the veranda of the house or to the living room, mosque, etc. 

4. Drink herbal medicine so that the body is vital & refreshing your view by going to the yard or standing by the window is also one of the efforts you can make to overcome feeling lazy. When you are in the yard or standing near the window, then at that time you can breathe fresh air, so as to create a refreshing atmosphere, and make boredom and sleepiness disappear.

 5. Overcoming laziness can also be tricked by replacing other activities. Various activities that you can do when lazy memorization is attacking can be done such as tidying up bookshelves, light exercise and so on and of course this work can make your muscles relax again. 

6. Talking in a short time with friends & joking a little, is one of the most important things to do in overcoming laziness. In this case, you have to make sure you don't forget the time, because the purpose of chatting here is just to generate new enthusiasm, but not to chat so much that you forget the time. Give a maximum of 1 hour a day for Facebook in the tahfidz group. 

7. Letting go of lazy memorization due to boredom can also be worked around by going out for a while to make a cup of tea or coffee. If you don't like drinking tea or coffee, then as an alternative you can also try making other drinks such as milk or juice.

 8. Changing habits is the most important thing to overcome boredom. If all this time you often memorize using mushafs, then you can try other alternatives by listening to various murottal recitations of the Qur'an through Audio Visual media, such as DVDs that are played via a laptop, or you can even listen through a recording device such as cell phone or tape recorder. 

In addition to the 8 ways mentioned above, you can also try reading or listening to various motivational words from other people which can be found in books or also in the Tahfidzul Qur'an group. Apart from that, the most important thing that can be done to overcome laziness to learn is by self-will. Without a will, then of course laziness will never be overcome.
