About the Website

Assalaamu Alaikum, my name is Maryum Abdul-Hakeem and I am the founder of Fatiha2Naas. My childhood dream was always to memorize Quran and become one of the people who can intercede for their loved ones on the day of judgement. 

This website started as a blog where I could simply document my journey to complete Quran. But as I dove deeper into Quran and learned more of the final Guidance from Allah (God), I found myself needing to share with others. 

I am overcome with a passion for Quran that keeps me coming back to it, no matter how difficult it is to keep going sometimes. Memorizing the entire Quran and maintaining it is no easy task. But with the help of Allah, any dream can come true. Allah is bringing my Quran dreams to life and making them come true. And I want to help other women achieve their Quran dreams too.
