Week six is done
Write it down while it is fresh.
Six weeks from now you will not remember which hour worked or what kept getting in the way. Fill this in tonight, then set the next six.
What they can say with the book closed

One surah a week
My TijarahThe one part that cannot happen at your table.
You have heard that surah a hundred times, so your ear now supplies what it expects rather than what came out of their mouth. A teacher hears what you cannot. The first twenty five minutes are free, and you watch the whole lesson.
