You may not have the same amount of time for the Quran every day. Sometimes you want to follow a page; sometimes you want to reflect on a verse’s meaning. Start with a moment you can truly make room for in your day.
Choose a realistic time first.
Before leaving home, during a quiet lunch break or while resting in the evening… Think of a time you can repeat in your own day, rather than trying to fit someone else’s routine.
You don’t need an ambitious reading goal on day one. Knowing how much time you have makes it easier to decide what to do with it. If you read less one day, you can begin again the next.
Read in a way that suits you.
If you like to see the whole page, the mushaf view may suit you. Choose the verse view when you want to follow the text alongside its meaning. Both approaches have a place in the app.
Secda offers translations in several languages alongside the Arabic text. Explore the Turkish and English translation sources and choose your preference. Saving a verse also makes it easier to return to its meaning.
Make room for listening too.
You can’t always look at a screen. When you want to listen, choose a surah and follow its recitation. Adjust playback speed and repetition to your needs.
Start listening free with Mishary Rashid Alafasy, and explore other reciters with Premium. Choose reading or listening to fit your day, without treating them as competing goals.
Make your next start easier.
When you finish reading, simply know where you will continue next time. In Secda, return to where you left off and revisit saved verses.
Start by asking yourself three questions:
- When can I find a quiet moment in my day?
- Do I want to read, reflect on a translation or listen today?
- Where will I continue next time?
