Parents are encouraged to read a few words every day. Have your children do the same. Just read them frequently, don’t try to memorize them. With time and frequent reading, you and they will begin to understand the Qur’an as they read it. This is knowledge they will, insha’Allah, embrace as their way of life, and will help them become a source of Allah’s SWT love for you.
