How can a woman seek knowledge and memorize the Qur'an with a six-month-old infant, given her inability to complete her studies at the Sharia institute and attend memorization circles?
Among the signs of divine success is the pursuit of what benefits one in matters of religion and worldly life. Seeking sacred knowledge is an individual obligation for rectifying one's creed and worship. This can be acquired through various means, such as the mosque, schools, recorded lectures, and the internet. The pursuit of knowledge can be adapted to life circumstances by starting with a small amount and reviewing it continuously, especially concerning memorizing the Qur'an with a focus on revision. With diligence, effort, and patience, Allah opens the doors of knowledge, and Allah is too generous to turn away from one who turns to Him. Whatever knowledge or worship was missed due to a valid excuse, Allah will compensate for it. Adhering to the obligatory duties and the rights of the spouse compensates for missed supererogatory acts.
