So I was reading the Quran after Asr, not because I have nothing else to do, but because it’s a nice thing to do :)
I was reading the 49th surah, al-Hujurat. Before I read a certain page in the quran, I will read the translation of the whole page first, then only I will read the Arabic verse. Because? Because it takes a loooot of time to read the meaning of verse 1, then recite it in Arabic, then read the meaning of verse 2, then recite it in Arabic. It’s a tiring process. So I read the translation of for example, a whole page 516, then only will I recite the whole page in Arabic.
I came to a conclusion that the paragraph above is unnecessary. Eh, sorry.
So I was reciting the 9th verse, and came across the word yuhibbu which means love. So I was kinda curious, oh, who is it that Allah loves? Yes I read the meaning of the whole page, but obviously I forgot who was/were referred to in this particular verse? So I checked and it says, For Allah loves those who are fair (and just). Go back to the Arabic, which reads, InnAllaha yuhibbul muqsiteen. Now, I am crappy at Arabic but as far as I know, muqsiteen is derived from the root word qistina.
SubhanAllah, my name is in the Quran.
(Go check it out, Al-Hujurat surah 49, verse 9)

oh, cool! I need motivation/help getting started reading translation. any tips?? or any sites that are easy to follow and understand?
i usually read straight from the tafseer and i dont do it online. but there's also a site i akways go to for english translation, i found it quite useful Alhamdulillah http://www.jannah.org/qurantrans/
and there's also amazing tafseer lectures on utube, there's one from yasir qadhi and its awesum! go search!
i have 2 ways of reading the translation. A, i read the translation only without reciting it in arabic, just like reading an english story book, but i couldnt keep up, i was stuck on a certain surah that explains more about the law and i thot twas a bit boring astaghfirullah, and havent continue till now. B, i read the translation like i stated in the post, and then recite it in arabic too. i find this quite fun, bcos at the same time u can learn arabic too! isnt that nice? :)
the best way to do it is, read a small portion EVERYDAY so that u can keep up with it, maybe like 1or2 page per day plus, Allah loves the little deeds that are continous! if u start big like me, it'll be more like a burden to keep up with it.
(but ramadhan's a whole different thing so of course we need to read more than a couple pages per day if we have time aight)
GOOD LUCK! and hope this helps insyaAllah :)
