Hıfz is Arabic orginal word.
it means keeping /memorizing etc
Hafız means someone who keeps or memorized.
We use it for people who memorized all verses of Kuran-ı Kerim.

In fact, it is expected that this person knows it "by heart", but you cannot measure it, there is not a measurement about sincere. You may only guess.

Yes, the whole book must be in his mind. There are some competitions about it. A referee reads a verse randomly, and expects that the competitor goes on the next verse.
PS. I don't understand why you think that we may think the questions seem stupid. Are we so rough? Have you meet many Turkish people who define your questions "stupid"?

Hi
Often a word comes into Turkish from Arabic.
The word for memory is hafıza, and it is related to this word hafız. So you can see a hafız is someone who committed the whole Koran to memory.

There are many people but not "a lot" that much. When I was in secondary school, there were some courses for it, and they last 3 or 4 years. I am not sure if there are still. Furthermore, I heard that there are new memorizing methods, and a couple of weeks ago, a girl memorized Koran in only 59 days.

Holy Moly!!!!!!
I've been trying to learn Turkish for about 10 months on my own......How can someone memorize something in only 3 months!? Ben cok ihtiyac ogretmek turkce daha iyi!
Ok now do I sound like a 3 year old or what?
I can't seem to find a teacher here in Toronto Canada......the turkish community is so small here. Especially if trying to find a class for Turkish.....I guess they all want to go to the USA land of opportunity and wealth! pffffffft.....
Oh well we are like the forgotten ones....ok now I am losing my senses..... see ya!
