The answer

The best methods for a girl to memorize the Quran are to teach her correct spelling (tahajji) and pronunciation of letters, and to choose her active times to repeat small sections with her, verse by verse or sentence by sentence, or to use a recorded teaching (Quranic audio). She should be encouraged without coercion through rewards and prizes. It is preferable for the mother to undertake this, with the possibility of seeking help from successful female Quran teachers if needed. There is no harm in her male cousin reading with her while they are young. Upon reaching the age of five, it is advisable to enroll her in women's Quran memorization circles.
