How is it that people can memorize the Quran?

I mean, isn't it like 500+ pages long? I can't even remember the 10 commandments and they memorize the whole book??? They must forget after a while and then have to re-memorize...
 
How does anyone remember anything? By studying.
Umm, ok. I study, however, i never memorized an entire book work for word. I just remember the main points or definitions.
 
Easy..memorize it, or die.

It suddenly becomes easy, especially if you are of young age, when kid's brains are like a sponge.
 
There are some people with amazing memories. My teenage son, for example, memorizes every movie he sees, wordperfect, even though he sees it once. He doesn't even like movies all that much - it's just something his brain does.

If the Quran were a movie he'd memorize it easy.
 
How do you memorize thousands of English words and thier definitions? Or all the lyrics to every top 40 song since you were 13?

By hearing them enough times.
 
Ancient greeks memorized over 1,000,000 of text because they didnt have a form of writing. The power of the human brain is astounding

Hey, maybe there's something to be said for not having 200 channels of mind-numbing mush, aka "reality tv" turned on, 24/7?? Being in my 40's, I grew up with 3 tv channels and a passion for reading, and consumed books at a sometimes alarming rate. Now imagine that you have NO tv, and only ONE book that they'll let you read......

.....my bet is that you'd have it memorized in no time!
