Wisam Sharieff – Learning Surahs By Seeing vs Hearing

			The sewers. I know I learned them by listening. I memorized all of them just hearing them when I was
younger. How can I get started to learn the source that I know the Muslim Institute presents q&a
with the Imam Hassan Sharif Assalamu alaykum friends, a lot of times, people will come to me and be
like, your memorization, your recitation sounds like you can see it. I'm like, Yeah, of course.
Can't you see it? And most people say, No, I just heard my dad rate, say, lm, dada K. And I just
followed, whatever the dude was, their pronunciation was there or not and me to the last 10 sewers,
I can definitely say, God bless my parents and yours. We learned them from our parents and reciting
		

			in the morning before we went to bed, or maybe in leading the prayer. So today, how about you and I
look at Elijah, and also role law he went and start that process, because a lot of times we feel
like, but I've kind of got this song in my head, lack of better term. So you don't know how to
correct like, it's it's a track on a record. If you guys know what a record is. It's a track on a
record and you're like, I don't know how to fix that. So let's jump in together. Only three verses,
but today, it's all about putting life putting a face to the name, you know, Elijah on a sort of
law, he will fight. That's my guess. And now I want to put a face or a shape to the word. Let's
