Basic Review Surah: Fatir (29)

The annual khatma is the Salaf's practice: The Prophet ﷺ would have the Quran reviewed with him each Ramadan — and reviewed it twice in the last Ramadan of his life. The Salaf would complete one, two, or more khatmas per year.

"Restarting the khatma" concept: Completing is not an ending — but a new beginning. "Whoever completes the Quran initiates the completion with an answered supplication." — Authentic Salaf narration.

Maintaining an annual khatma:

1. Calculate your required daily portion: 30 juz ÷ 365 days = one quarter hizb daily (4-5 pages)
2. Let the khatma take priority over new memorization in Ramadan — Ramadan for review and completion, other months for memorization
3. Record each khatma's date — tracking motivates
4. At completion: gather loved ones and supplicate — "Angels attend the Quran khatma"

The guardian's rule: Any juz you haven't reviewed in a month — consider it forgotten. Begin reviewing it immediately.
