Have you ever memorized the Quran only to forget it later? Many of us master pages of memorization early on, only to face a painful void months later — that heartache when you try to recall a verse and it's gone. This isn't a lack of willpower; it's simply how human memory works without structured review. The Science of Forgetting Psychologist Hermann Ebbinghaus discovered that memory follows a predictable forgetting curve — and that reviewing at the right moment multiplies retention exponentially. Itqan applies this science specifically to the classical Islamic memorization methodology. Sabq · Sabqi · Manzil Method Itqan is built on the three-tier system trusted by Quran teachers worldwide: • Sabq — New daily memorization. You decide how many pages per week; the app distributes them across your days. • Sabqi — Near review. Pages memorized in recent weeks, ordered by risk of forgetting. • Manzil — Far review. Your entire past memorization on spaced cycles until it's firmly rooted. After each review you rate your recall — Mastered / Good / Hesitant / Forgot — and the spaced-repetition algorithm reschedules every page with precision. Features ◈ Full Uthmani Quran text from Tanzil (604 pages) embedded — works fully offline. ◈ Interactive Mushaf board: track every page by color — memorized, under review, not started. ◈ Structured daily session: Sabq · Sabqi · Manzil. ◈ SM-2 spaced-repetition algorithm, tuned for Quranic context. ◈ Statistics: streak, retention rate by juz, estimated khatma date. ◈ Smart reminders: daily nudge, post-Fajr alert, streak-break warning. ◈ Backup: export/import JSON file to safeguard all your data. ◈ Three languages: Arabic (default, RTL), French, English. ◈ Hijri calendar support. ◈ Audio listening: choose from top reciters, set repeat per ayah and speed.
