Maryam had been doing a juz a day in Ramadan and nothing at all since.

Her first floor was half a juz. It lasted five days. Her second was five pages, and it lasted nine.

Her third floor is three ayahs after fajr, sitting where she already sits, with her phone in another room. She has done it every day for two months, and on maybe six of those days she has carried on for longer because she was already there and the book was open.

She has not got back to a juz a day, and she is no longer trying to. What she has is something that has not broken.
