course of your Hifdh al-Qur'an. Most of these were passed down to me
from previous teachers (may Allah bestow upon them much goodness,
ameen), while some were picked up along the way (and others were
contributed by fellow students).
Insha'Allah, more will be added in the future. If you wish to mention
some gems of your own so we can benefit each other, please feel free
to comment below!

وَاتْلُ عَلَيْهِمْ نَبَأَ ابْنَيْ آدَمَ بِالْحَقِّ إِذْ
قَرَّبَاقُرْبَاناً فَتُقُبِّلَ مِن أَحَدِهِمَا وَلَمْ يُتَقَبَّلْ مِنَ
الآخَرِقَالَ لَأَقْتُلَنَّكَ قَالَ إِنَّمَا يَتَقَبَّلُ اللّهُ مِنَ
الْمُتَّقِينَ
"And recite to them the story of the two sons of Adam in truth; when
each offered a sacrifice, it was accepted from one but not from the
other. The latter said to the former: "I will surely kill you." The
formersaid: "Verily, Allah accepts only from those who are
Al-Muttaqun." [Al-Ma'idah: 27]
لَّقَدْ سَمِعَ اللَّهُ قَوْلَ الَّذِينَ قَالُواإِنَّ اللَّهَ فَقِيرٌ
وَنَحْنُ أَغْنِيَاءُ ۘ سَنَكْتُبُ مَا قَالُوا وَقَتْلَهُمُ
الْأَنبِيَاءَ بِغَيْرِ حَقٍّ وَنَقُولُ ذُوقُوا عَذَابَ الْحَرِيقِ
"Allah has certainly heard the statement of those [Jews] who said,
"Indeed, Allah is poor, while we are rich." We will record what they
said and their killing of the prophets without right and will say,
"Taste the punishment of the Burning Fire." [Aal-'Imran: 181]
These two verses are the only ones in the Qur'an which contain 10 Qafs
(the letter ق)! (yes, yes, go ahead and count them).
- So if you have a problem pronouncing your qaf , maybe it'll help
reciting these ayat over and over again!

وَهِيَ تَجْرِي بِهِمْ فِي مَوْجٍ كَالْجِبَالِ وَنَادَى نُوحٌ ابْنَهُ
وَكَانَ فِي مَعْزِلٍ يَابُنَيَّ ارْكَب مَّعَنَا وَلاَ تَكُن مَّعَ
الْكَافِرِينَ
"So it (the ship) sailed with them amidst the waves like mountains,
and Nuh called out to his son, who had separated himself, "O my son!
Embark with us and do not be with the disbelievers." [Hud: 42]
- اركب معنا is the only place in the Qur'an where the letter ba (ب) is
mudgham with a meem (م).
Shaykh Muhammad HusaynYa'qub mentions something interesting about this
in one of his books:
هذه أقدار, وأحكام التجويد فيها أسرار
اركمّعنا – إدغام الباء في الميم كأنها تقول: التصق بنا لنصبح شيئا واحدا
اركمّعنا – حذف الحرف إشارة إلى السرعة! ء
اركمّعنا – صرنا نحن والركوب شيئا واحدا, فكن معنا
والإدغام مع الغنة فيها معنى التماسك بعد التلاسق, فكأنه يتمسك به بشدة
ولا يفلت يده من يده ولا يدعه لحظة واحدة لأنها النجاة … نجاة نفس من
النار… إرادة نجاة من قلب مشفق على من يحب
Summary : There is Idgham of ' ba ' and ' meem ' and it is as if Nuh
(`alayhisalam) is saying 'Come and hold fast to us so that we can be
one body.' (This is based on theknowledge that Idgham bydefinition is
'inclusion of one letter into the other such that they become
oneletter mushaddad' ). Also, there is omission of a letter( ba ) and
this suggests rapidity and fast momentum (you can picture the scene
here).

قِيلَ يَا نُوحُ اهْبِطْ بِسَلاَمٍ مِّنَّا وَبَركَاتٍ عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَى
أُمَمٍ مِّمَّن مَّعَكَ وَأُمَمٌ سَنُمَتِّعُهُمْ ثُمَّ يَمَسُّهُم
مِّنَّا عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ
"It was said: "O Nuh! Come down (from the ship) with peace from Us and
blessings on you and on the people who are with you but (there will
be) people to whom We shall grant pleasures (for a time), but in the
end a painful torment will reach them from Us." [Hud: 48]
Sticking with Surah Hud… this ayah which comes up later in the story
of Nuh (`alayhisalam) is the only ayah to contain the biggestnumber of
ghunna's in theQur'an due to the abundant occurence of nunand meem
mushaddadah (نّ – مّ).

You'll only ever find 3 places in the Qur'an where there is a direct
repetition of a word/letter without any breaks :
a. In al-An'am:
وَإِذَا جَاءتْهُمْ آيَةٌقَالُواْ لَن نُّؤْمِنَ حَتَّى نُؤْتَى مِثْلَ
مَا أُوتِيَ رُسُلُ اللّهِ اللّهُ أَعْلَمُ حَيْثُ يَجْعَلُ رِسَالَتَهُ
سَيُصِيبُ الَّذِينَ أَجْرَمُواْ صَغَارٌ عِندَ اللّهِ وَعَذَابٌ شَدِيدٌ
بِمَا كَانُواْ يَمْكُرُونَ
"And when there comes to them a sign they say: "We shall not believe
until we receive the like which was received by the Messengersof
Allah." Allah knows best with whom to place His Message. Humiliation
and disgrace from Allah and a severe torment will overtake the
criminals for that which they used to plot.' [al-An'am: 124]
