How to Enrich Your Life With the Qur’an

Reciting

Reciting the Qur'an with correct tajweed (rules of recitation) fills the heart with solace, the soul with peace and the house with blessings. It makes you feel close to Allah, and alleviates any sorrow or grief due to its immediate stress-relieving effects. Daily recitation of a few pages of the Qur'an, especially after Fajr prayer, is the best remedy for keeping oneself on the path of righteousness tied to the rope of Allah.


`Abdullah Ibn `Amr Ibn Al-`As (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:


"The one who is devoted to the Qur'an will be told on the Day of Resurrection: ‘Recite and ascend (in ranks) as you used to recite when you were in the first life (dunia). Your rank will be at the last verse (ayah) you recite.’” (Abu Dawud and At-Tirmidhi)
